So what do you think of the new forums?

I miss the tickers0

I also think it is a mistake to not allow us to see the posting history of others, as seeing a posting history can help us get a better idea of the situations individuals are posting about, in particular if an ED is involved.0

(Hot tip: click the star at the top of any topic you want to follow and you can jump to those topics in the star menu at the top right… and when you return to a topic, you're placed at the last post you read)
Does this mean that those I've posted to in the past won't be appearing anywhere for me unless I track them down and star them?

There are a bunch of features (such as Likes) that we can turn on as we go forward. We've started with a smallish set of the available features so we can achieve stability before we start opening Pandora's box.
We are encouraging feedback and suggestions in Website Suggestions topic.
Cool! The forum software being used here is very robust, but keep in mind everyone, that there is a lot of hardware/software activity that goes on behind the scenes to support such a large member base.
I agree with the approach of starting small, better that than enabling every single feature and the forums crash.0 -

Yeah, no more tickers. No more number of posts/join date. And I don't see any ability to see a user's other posts. Those were all features I used often.
I see number of posts.. O_o
Maybe it's because I'm reading from a mobile browser then. Can't wait to see what it looks like from my regular computer in the morning.

Yes, the font thing is annoying - zooming in is great until I try to go to anything other than these forums and it looks GIANT. So far just not well executed. But hey at least the groups block on the right is like twice the size of the forum postings now - that is awesome (oh, wait...no, no it's not.)0

Can I recommend just use forums as one tab from everything else. The zoom does not affect if I go to my profile straight from here. There were like 3 star replies that came in at the same time. That might be the best feature yet.

I also want to know what happens when you attach an image.
Also trying to upload a gif. For science

I use to run an online forum and use to code them and all that, I can honestly say that this being a new upgrade, it'll take some time to get use too and time for kinks to be worked out. I'm sure the MFP staff will be working hard to make it the best they can. With that said, a suggestion, it needs a reply at the top, it does take time to scroll to the bottom to get to reply, especially if you are in a hurry. I wonder what the forum software is???0

Wow, this is so awful from a mobile now. Is there a "click here for desktop" tab somewhere? Where have my groups gone? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! Totally would not bang.0

Well, when I open a new tab it opens zoomed to the same percentage as the forums - so giant. Even if I am in a tab that is at 100%, then I leave that page, it goes to the new page and zooms. I do appreciate the suggestion though.0 -
Some of the discussions that I posted in have been deleted altogether. Sad because one was really fun. It was in the Chit Chat category and people were having a blast with it. Why were some discussions that were fun and no harm to anyone deleted and others (which look to be from a spam/commercial account) not deleted?
If this question was already asked, I apologize.0 -
I like that you can do this without having to get a Diploma in Pic Posting first! (just testing with a random pic)0
