The old board vs. this new one.

BTW although I do remember B&W TV, I don't miss it, although there are some movies and shows that I think are better when viewed in B&W, artistically speaking.

I agree with the complaints that the board is too busy....Mods is there a way that they could just highlight a thread when someone new posts, but still leave it in the location by date it was started? I feel like I must be missing new posts, because if I go to page 8 and comment it shows up first on the list when you first open the RT. That way, those interested in the topic can read what they want and all others can read the board like we always have.....

I might be misunderstanding your post, but posting a new message in an old thread has always brought it to the top of the board. That enables anything "new" (as in anything with new comments) to be seen first when you enter the board.

I still can't figure out people who are complaining about "excessive scrolling". Really? You must have something different than my phone/tablet/desktop, where it's plenty easy. The notifications system is great too. I would like the old smileys back though.

The previous Mobile site had Limited thread view, no page functionality, no reply to post functionality,and was confusing to navigate to other parts of the site.

here you are complaining because you are too lazy to learn how to bookmark properly and change your browser settings to auti remember login information.

The site posts are down because nothing interesting is going on. site posts are up on the basketball forum because of a couple of recent signings and fan interest.

content drives the bus not format

besides the inability to directly reply to a poster or with a quote, I found it easier and much less clunkier posting on my phone before....I used the desktop version and everything was fine. It was very easy to move from board board

If you used the desktop version on your phone, then it isn't the "mobile" version.

Mobile was terrible especially for long threads when the screen would just turn bright red or black and you couldn't read any text on the page.

Replied, with quote, on my phone. Trivial.

Two clicks to move from board to board. Always available on the screen, in the header, no scrolling needed.

New boards are flabbergastingly better.

Use Chrome and get the Rivals board enhancement extension. Gets rid of a ton of dead space.

I have no idea how anyone could prefer the old board outside of not liking the white space (which I do get...but as said, is fixable). Just being able to click a thread and be taken to the most recent posts, and not having to scroll all the way through, is enough of an upgrade for me.

The guy who doesn't like that threads with new posts get sent to the top...what planet are you on?

On what kind of device? There's no lag when typing on my computer, but haven't tried typing on iPad or phone yet.
