There you go! Paul, you nailed it. I used to come to FR to read A SINGLE NEWSPAPER that provided me with the news from all over the world. I found it cumbersome when we were split into separate forums: News, General, etc. Whereas, prior to THAT change, I could use MY TIME wisely and read what I wanted, I found myself having to spend additional time to access different forums.

But today, I find myself facing an entire stack of magazines. I will not spend my time loading each and every magazine in order to read the news.

I am not quitting FR, but I AM actively looking for a site that will meet my needs. Seems there are a number who have the same needs, based on this thread.

I disagree strongly with the view of some that to post a negative or disapproving comment re: this new format makes you a whiner. I totally appreciate the hard work of the Robinsons. I also recognize that those who LIKE the new format will NOT understand that those who disagree have valid complaints/comments that transcend the accusation that they resist change.

I want the old format to be an option...and I also recognize that what I want means squat. Because, as many have intimated here, my thoughts, concerns, suggestions are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. So be it.

I don't have time to engage in the game playing and the feuds and the 'who's on top' mentality that I have seen espoused on many threads recently. I just want my news...in a timely, relevant, and easily accessed format. FR, has, until recently, met my needs. It doesn't now.
