pam Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Hey anyone that is on right now that is NOT a moderator. Go through this thread and see if you can see anyone\'s warning points under their avatar. Right under where it shows number of posts. I\'m trying to determine if only THAT person can see it or if it is seen by the public. Quote
Dravin Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I think it\\\\\\\'s because they have used a different font. I find it more difficult as well. The Times New Roman that we see right now is too busy. We need a simple sans serif font that has less going on. :)While the font could be better, for me it\\\'s the contrast of just black on white. I much prefer a light grey or tan as a background. All the white while surfing the board and reading threads is a little too much for my preference. I\'ve had to resort to killing the brightness on my monitor if I\'m going to spend much time on the site. pam and mnn727 2 Quote

pam Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Thank you Dravin. Then I\'m not going to worry about that issue. And for those that are seeing points even if they are from ages past, those points stay with you but are considered inactive points. Sorry. :) Quote
pam Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 And Dravin you are right. Those back slashes have got to go. Quote
skippy740 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Setting local time would be nice too.Hmmm... it worked that time. Well, time will tell. :) Edited April 3, 2014 by skippy740 Quote
Jenamarie Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 The site is also requiring me to sign in each time I come, if I want to post, even though I show as already signed in. I have to log-off and re-sign-in before it allows me to post. Quote
skippy740 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I noticed the same thing... but only if I was signed in on more than one device. Quote
MarginOfError Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Well I\'m massively confused. I logged in, and it would only let me report posts, but not quote or like anything. It also wouldn\'t let me post a reply. Now that I\"m logged out, it is letting me post, quote, and like. I\'m on Chrome. Is anyone else having issues? Quote
Wingnut Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Hey anyone that is on right now that is NOT a moderator. Go through this thread and see if you can see anyone\\\'s warning points under their avatar. Right under where it shows number of posts. I\\\'m trying to determine if only THAT person can see it or if it is seen by the public.I had wondered about that, so when Slamjet said something about it yesterday, I looked specifically and couldn\'t see anything by his avatar. I assume it\'s only for our own benefit. Quote
Wingnut Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 The site is also requiring me to sign in each time I come, if I want to post, even though I show as already signed in. I have to log-off and re-sign-in before it allows me to post.Maybe this will be a stupid question, but did you click the \"remember me\" box? I haven\'t had a problem with it. Quote
Jenamarie Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Well, first thing I did just now when getting back onto the site was log off and re-long-in and I *still* had to \"log in\" before I could post, so I essentially had to log in twice. I wonder if it\'s just me? Also, when browsing the site on my phone there was a New Posts button! Not on my PC though (both were through Chrome) Quote
pam Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Well, I wanted to \\\"like\\\" this post, but I\\\'ve apparently been too nice already today, because I\\\'ve reached my quota of positive posts for the day.I think I might have fixed this issue. I hope I did. This is all a learning thing for me as well. :) Wingnut 1 Quote
beefche Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Jena, when I logged into my phone, I didn\'t have to \"login\" in again. It remembered me from last time. On my phone, there is a View New Content button which is like our \"Today\'s Posts.\" It\'s not on the site when I access through a desktop/laptop. On my phone, I cannot see anything that allows me to post a reply to a thread. Quote
beefche Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 And with that last post, I noticed that the quote marks show up as a \\. Quote
Wingnut Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I think I might have fixed this issue. I hope I did. This is all a learning thing for me as well. :)It was still an issue for me this morning, but it just let me like your post, so it looks good for now anyway. Thanks, Pam! Quote

Palerider Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 PEOPLE!! You need to upload new photos for avatars! We can\\\\\\\'t tell who you are quickly enough! That will take some work.......lol Quote

LittleWyvern Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Other than not having the \\\"New Posts\\\" button (I really really miss that), I like the new forums. :)EDIT: Ah, it looks like quotes are mangled. It keeps on putting a \\ before the double quote character. Quote
mirkwood Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Thanks for the hard work on the site Pam. In case you would like a new avatar I suggest this one: Maureen, Wingnut, applepansy and 1 other 4 Quote

You\\\'re lucky there, that means you can\\\'t take the blame either.Guess we need to give it a few days, but I sure miss the old website.New is not always better.
