hows everyone getting used to the new boards? have you's had any problems lately?

They seem fine, for the most part. I like the bigger storage capacity of the Pm section.

The only thing i have noticed lately is my email notification of posts has not been coming through over the last 3 or 4 days, so i am expecting a deluge from cyber space when they finally arrive.

they all seemed to get sent with the latest upgrade looks like a bugs still in the system

Ah well, it is a reality check for me.
I usually get about 12-20 emails overnight. It gives one an illusion of busy-ness.
Then lately, lucky if I get one or two-and those are usually just from companies trying to sell me cheap airfares or health p*lls.

When my 488 back copies of notifications finally do turn up all at once and I see the grand total in the inbox, i will feel popular once again.

no doubt they'll all come through at once again with the next update

I like these boards better but I am having a similar problem with the e-mails, i'll not receive anything then i'll get 2 or 3 or more in a row, it's not a major problem but like you say Ry it'll be fixed with the new updates and once again Sherri will feel popular

Used to the boards now and the only thing I find is that sometimes when I press "Submit" I get "Preview" instead, its not too much of a problem as it just means I have to press "submit" twice. Apart from that, great. =D>

I've just clicked on to what is happening here, it's not actually a preview, what happens is if someone has posted just as you are it looks like you're getting a preview but it's actually showing the new post someone has just made in case it clashes with the one you're doing hence giving you a chance to change your response.... good little gimmick I think

yes, i get that sometimes too, pilot. But what has also happened a few times is I have had a preview come up because a new post has been made... and when I look, the new post is the one I am previewing.
Don't ask me how that happens, I haven't a clue. But when it does, i just decline to submit that one. A few times I haven't checked and if i do submit, there it is, twice.
mind you, my posts are probably worth being there twice of course.

They're working fine, BigRy, and I'm used to navigating them now.
I shut off my e-mail notification just to prevent the deluge thingy
from happening again.

Thanks for all of your hard work on this. Much appreciated.

glad everyones happy! i can relax for a few weeks now! actually could'nt get any more lazier if i tried this weekend

Enjoy the peace and quiet, BigRy. You know it won't last.

It's not as if we had a choice, I'm getting used to them now but don't go changing them in the near future.

it better last changing jobs soon so i need some piece they should be like this for some time now, was a bit of a rushed change otherwise the old boards would have packed in thanks to the servers!
