Welcome to the NEW FBBO!

Maybe it's been mentioned already and I missed it but it used to tell us who made the last post "X minutes" ago. This was useful as I don't care to read some members comments and don't bother checking the thread then. Will this be back?
 
Example....

I'm on an iPhone. Perhaps it just doesn't show up on here but it just shows the minutes ago, not the user who replied.

Blame the phone. Only so much room on a little screen. Hard to fit everything in there.
 
On the old site there was the view where you could check out all the threads you started. Is there a way to do that now?

Thanks (and sorry if I missed it...)

Yup. Click your username on the top right and look for "Your Content"
 
Here's a question. I believe it to be very valid....

WHY?

It's a forum. The ones from 10 years ago look and do the exact same things as the new ones do. So what would be the point in changing a good setup like the one you had for one that is obviously going to take a lot of work for you to get it to be as good as the old one already was?... Not to mention now everyone has to try and figure out a way to get the new one to do what they liked the old one to do.

I'm sorry, I appreciate the work and the forum. I just think this was quite unnecessary.

Because, for starters, its better. It handles images better, it's mobile friendly, its more secure, it handles many things the old software doesn't.

I understand how you feel, but believe me... You'll get used to the new setup very quickly, and you'll find it to be easier to use and offer more features that are good for members.
 
I don't see the pictures I posted on my in my project R/T thread since the upgrade. Are they gone or still to be added. Thanks for your hard work Joey.
 
I have noticed that all (avatars) are now fuzzy, will they remain that way? Also, as I used to read through threads, many members had a link to their personal photo gallery. I used to like to poke them and view the pictures. Will that feature return or is it hidden somewhere else or gone? Also, I had noted your warnings that our PM's would possibly to be lost and that we were supposed to save them. Unfortunately I didn't know how to save them so I guess they are vaporized! I don't envy you your job. The older I get, the less I like change, many of us old goats feel that way. Just look at the new cars, can't even see the engine without a removing a dozen things. Thanks for all that you do!

I'm working on that ---
 
Best feature is when you point to the title of a thread a window opens up and gives you the first few lines of the post (much more than it used to be) and you can then decide to open the thread or not. Def a time saver. Thanks Joey.
 
Oh, a little trick is that you can now tag people. @NJRR This will give them an alert to see the post.
