    Wow! Was this from the big format change that so many oldtimers are so bitter about?

    Edit: Would you believe I couldn't just say YES, It has to be 5 characters.

    I'd welcome an upgrade. The folks around this board are lovely but I still don't have much affection for any other aspect of it. My kingdom for a 'fast mode', especially on the What's Spinning? thread.

    Not to get too confrontational...but I'd blame that on Swish...

    I said : "That's nothing - you should hear me play piano"

    LOL! I thought that you were going to say "The folks around this board are lovely, but I still don't have much affection for them". And then ask for an upgrade on the folks.

    We already have the best 'folks'. How can you upgrade the best?

    Oh hey, board upgrade! Aside from the cosmetics and the load speed, anything functionally different?

    I was wondering the same thing.

    After failing (twice) to log on because I had an 'incorrect' password (it was automatic before), requesting a new password and finally logging on, I don't see anything different. At least nothing obvious.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    Hey Rae Rae--

    I can't answer that question from the standpoint of any technical knowledge but if the damn thing moves faster that's more than enough for me. Anything else would be icing.

    I think the difference is mainly on the back end - and new server - OS build - and new clean install of vB.

    There is some functional difference but for the most past should be about the same.

    It looks to me like someone redecorated, but that's about it as far as I can see.

    Oh, and I see a little green button to tell me that Swishypoo is on-line instead of before when they thought that it had to be spelled out for me.

    It looks like some of the bugs may have been fixed. The Forum Jump actually works for me. That hasn't worked right...well...EVER...I think. And when I post, it actually posts instead of telling me that I have to wait 30 seconds. If the upgrade is less buggy then I'm a happy girl.

    Yippie! I lost a post in the middle of the change - one I actually put some thought and effort into, too! I won't be doing that again! Yay!!

    Seriously though, it will be nice to be able to use the "forum jump" again.

    Sorry about that dean - I was out sick yesterday and IT did the upgrade. Unfortunately bad food strikes at any moment, and sometimes things we put time into get lost.

    No need to apologize. Hope you're feeling better.

    don't blame you. Unfortunately, I'm thinking of too many disastrous scenarios. What if you sat next to someone with a cologne that irritated you and made you sneeze?

    Well, it loaded faster for me, and I'm on my phone. No comments suggesting canine lineage from me. I'm pleased.

    And now I'm allowed to give myself rep points - awesome!

    I wish them buttons for the next page of the thread were a little bigger. Seems like I can't ever hit them with the mouse on the first try.

    And would someone answer that damn phone!!

    I can look at increasing the font size on this -

    which phone? you want to call me directly on my cell?

    I don't know what you guys mean by the 'forum jump'. I guess I just use this one anyway.
