i can't stand the "new posts" feature
i liked that the old board told you which threads had been updated so you only had to skim maybe 25 things to decide what you're interested in. this way, you either have to skim 100s of posts, or go into every board directory and see where there's activity.
grrrr. all this bells and whistles ****. yes, we can do a lot more on this platform (blog, animated smilies, friends, etc), but we HAVE to do more (manually search for the threads you want) because the computer won't. what the **** is the point of a database if you still have to scroll and click through page after page? it's not supposed to electronic index cards, it's supposed to be a flipping database!
reminder: i am full aware that Bhuz had no choice about a new platform. i just wish the guys who created it paid as much attention to the computing aspect of it as they did to the fluff.
but then, i'm the person who got pissed off by the stupid graphics of paper flying across to the trash can when you deleted a big file. *********! maybe if the machine weren't wasting its brains on that **** it would delete the damn file faster.
