The way we had it in the old board, you didn't have to read all the posts...you could just pick the ones you wanted to read.
But because of the rotating posts...that whenever a post is replied to a current post, it jumps back to the top with a pink dot at the left....we always HAVE to go to every post or it won't drop down and the pink won't clear....
Personal opinion.... it's really time consuming to have to open each and every post to clear it AND it's really confusing to me to have posts jump to the top with each and every answer....you lose your sense of what is truly current....AND..like I mentioned before a post can NEVER die this way (which does have it's positive aspects).
With the exception of these minor things, the boards look great and it's very exciting... we've jumped to a new level of high tech! Congratulations Ryan!

I meant that sometimes posts need to die....
Re: New Board Question/Comment
Hello,
Well it shows how slow I am to come to the board. I just found out it changed. I used to be Teresa in Tucson but now I'm tessie258 if anyone is wondering. I'm not sure I like the new board yet....It is still too new to me. The one thing I noticed is that the background color doesn't show up well on my computer and I need to get my color card fixed or something. I'm sure I will get used to it.
Keep telling myself, "change is good"

Re: New Board Question/Comment
I like having a post jump back to the top of the list when someone replies. Saves me from having to flip through everything to see what people have been talking about. Just as some threads need to die, some need to be kept alive. : ) It is taking some getting used to, but every day I like this new message board better.
