    My only real complaint is the lack of subscribed threads in the User CP. In fact, I'm having a hell of a time finding the CP. I like the visuals, but the controls and behind the scenes are quite a bit different than what I was expecting. Yikes.

    If you hover over your username, you will have access to your User CP and such. Also, upper left, you can click on "Forums" and check out your watched threads, which is the new Thread Subscription feature.

    Which a lot of the time I need to do. I'd rather have the link readily visible. There's more than enough empty space.

    Aha! Thank you! I can work with this...

    Now, how do I change the number of posts per page? The 10 per (or whatever it currently is) doesn't work for me. I like having the 40 per that I was using.

    my only issue is.....is there a way to change it where I can have the latest post be at the top of the page when I click a forum title like before? it takes a lot of time to get to the latest page of a thread and then have to go all the way down to the bottom of the page to see the last posts.

    Posting anything less than a quick reply post.

    Damn forum symbol crap, that you have to click to open back up, was real easy to refresh page before using that as well with the drop down version, navigation was much faster as well.

    This new quoting crap is suckage as well. Pick quote, add quote...................... What the hell did I hit quote for? And I haven't even gotten to thee post yet.

    I know you guys are trying, but why did anyone even bother to put a more complicated system in place of what was here?

    KISS, always works best, always.

    Yeah I mentioned that in the section I quoted above and also said that "conversations" blow......

    PM makes a hell of a lot more sense from a user stand point.

    This isn't Facebook.

    I don't get the confusion. It's the same format as any other web based forum, just with slightly different features in slightly different places. (but not really even)

    Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to beat a dead horse. I didn't see the post, there's just so many pages and missing days to go through on all of the threads, I'm getting lost on which threads I'm looking at.

    Per page is now 20, and global. Individual users can't alter it anymore. Built into system, not even an option to allow it.
