In Response To: Re: Announce: New BBS Script (Andy Waddington)

: I had to set a bookmark to get a version which didn't do that - I
: prefer to
: have the list of posts in one window and open any that I want to
: read in a
: new window, so from that point of view I prefer the new version.

: But boy, is it ugly !! All the little icons are
: indistinguishable...
: And why has "Post response" changed to "Reply"
: ? That sounds like a
: reply-direct-to-author, rather than a post-to-list. If it wasn't
: broken, why
: fix it ? (This is not aimed at you, Nick - sounds like you had to
: take what
: was now available...).

: Profiles vanished, and where is "Top ten" ? Will it come
: back at some time, and
: if so, will it count all the posts people have made over the years
: ? Upgrades
: are all very well, but continuity and backwards compatibility are
: important.

: Is there a way to make people's old profiles available for a while
: so that they
: can use them as a basis for new ones ? I'm afraid this was a blind
: spot and I
: don't have a backup :-( I'm sure I'm happy to bring it up to date,
: but I'd like
: to start from what I already had !

: Andy

I try to not criticize free forums. Nick does this for us for nothing afterall. If I'm paying for the service I tend to be much more critical.
