I know that in most cases, people bitch about sites when they change and then after awhile everyone forgets there was ever a switch in the first place.

But this board really sucks ass.

Not to mention it's the slowest loading forum I've ever seen.

Still can't click links in posts (ones that weren't added with the Link "button"). So to look at a link someone pasted in I have copy and paste it into a new window instead of just clicking it.

How do we know which threads we've read and haven't read? And with that goes Mark this post as read, mark all posts read, etc. etc.

This is the most useful feature from MD that's missing over here.

Test to see if BB codes work. Image and quote.



Okay.. Seems that BB code is converted to HTML code. Weird. So that eliminates only quoting what you want from anothers post to be quoted.

I even tried to take out the block quote code, no luck.

Editing sometimes get's stuck in the "saving" mode and you must refresh to get it to edit. IE7

Since I can't specifically quote the question that I want to answer by itself, I'll tell you that my post is in reference to Question #2.

That's what I want to know!

You can now. Click the little balloon way over on the right in the 'last post' column.

All you have to do is type the [qoute]text here[/qoute] to only quote certain phrases. I know that I spelled "qoute" incorrectly...

If you want the person's name included...[qoute="spyguy"]text here[/qoute]

That's a work around. But it doesn't show as well as the default quote does.

As the quote shows above is right, the work around should be the same. Fix it is what I say!

When I copy and paste a link to a site, it's not a link that you can click, just the address written out.

Can't we just go back to the old board, change the name at the top, and link it to Vitals forum button?

When I click on a thread with a video embedded, I get an error saying the application has aborted and it goes to the white "page unable to open" type of screen.
