Tim Stephenson (Archant IS) Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 About the same as it's always doneSlightly quicker than it used toMuch faster nowWorse than it's ever been Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catalpa Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Slightly quicker but, just as important: much much more reliably. Idon't get the error messages, timeouts etc. Really missing them. [:P]Minor quibble is the length of time all the post smileys /smilies (both spellings look daft) take to load before I can starttyping a response.

Christine Animal Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Does your poll include the forum before migration, comparing with the old one, or since it is just the new forum?I agree with Catalpa, it sometimes seems ages before you can start typing a post, though this time it was quite fast. Do you mean it could be better since yesterday...I must admit (with the risk of being bashed) that I still regret the old forum, far easier on the eyes and far more options when posting, etc. [:$] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Looking back it it it is a bit ambiguous, the question. I voted only on the basis of speed of forum, not all the other features. Why did we have to lose so many good features to gain some speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Stephenson (Archant IS) Posted February 8, 2006 Author Share Posted February 8, 2006 Thanks for your feedback so far.I've added a second poll in this forum to cover reliability and errors etc. Can I ask you to also vote on that one to help us get a feel for the forum's reliability these days?Thanks once again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 The only thing I miss is the "new posts since last visit". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 [quote user="Alexis"] The only thing I miss is the "new posts since last visit".[/quote]Alexis, I could not agree more with your statement. Whatever, anyone has said the current system is both time consuming and needs this addition. In my opinion the new forum is great and would be wonderful if "new post since last visit" could be incorporated and hyperlinks would automatically open a new window. (Yes I know you can left click and request a new window)Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I do find the new forum faster, and although we are all missing the "posts since last visit option" I think that the "active" posts section works well as a replacement.My only slight niggles are, as Baz mentioned, the hyperlinks problem, and also that when using the search facility the results are not sorted by date order. This is a real shame, whilst it is true that at least it is now possible to perform a search, I'm sure that many people give up when presented with pages and pages of results given in no particular order.
