deleting pms?? I can't even write a pm. when I attempted to, I clicked on the person's name, then a text box appeared, so I ASSUMED that meant write your pm here. Wrong! A couple days later I got an email from Kat saying "hey stupid, use the pm function and stop writing on that guys activity wall." I don't know what that even means.
Also, I've been shown how to embed YouTube videos and still can't figure it out. I guess it's all just operator error.
Not sure if you're being disingenuous, but if not...
Clicking on a person's name and writing in the box that appeared is a "public" message, everyone can see it. If you want to write a private message, I think the best way is to go to your inbox and then click "New Message" and go from there.
For what it's worth, I think the new forum is total garbage. The first few times I came to the 'new' forum.... I thought something was wrong with my browser.

It's starting to make me laugh that it still looks like this. It actually surprises me a little.
Exactly...How long is this going to go on for?...Either go back to the Old Look or atleast do something about this eyesore.
I'm guessing it's either live with it, download the excellent greasemonkey script (which has kept me here) or start a mutiny. Oh wait, that's already happened on its own.

Do you participate in any of the Facebook groups? I know a ton of folks have gone that direction. Personally? I wouldn't, couldn't do facebook in a gazillion years.
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

Yeah, once in a while, casually, but I find them hare to keep hard to track of. With having downloaded the script here, I feel as comfortable on this site as I did before it was reformatted and find myself connected better with the band and fans here than on Facebook. For me Facebook is basically good for keeping track of and keeping in touch with the kids and nieces and nephews and grand-kids and what they are up too because that's their way of communicating.

Deleted Facebook account today. It's annoying and I get pissed because the things people say and do there. :(
LONG time member checking in. I rarely complain about anything here. I have to say I am not a fan of the new design. As a matter of fact, it has discouraged me from participating around here. I'm hoping these suggestions for change are taken into account. Rock on PJ!
Has anyone mentioned the fact that we can now delete our own posts from people's activity walls? That is excellent! Must have accidentally posted publicly half a dozen times now. It's nice to be able to get rid if the mistake! Haven't tried deleting someone else's post from my own wall... is that also possible now?

Hilarious, because that is what the people on FB say about this place and why most of them dont come here anymore.... )
Really? I never at all got the impression that people were using FB because the people here were pissing them off with what they say and do. I thought it was because the mods were pissing them off and because the new forum design sucks so bad.

I have heard multiple people over there say how they hate the people here because of how rude they are and that the negativity keeps them away.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.

For a certain many of you that are posting their hate here about the new change I'm very VERY shocked & confused as I see ya's posting on Facebook & Twitter non stop. Those social media pages have white backgrounds too. They have black & blue texts as well. It's the same thing! The text might be a little smaller here, but it's not that hard using your keyboard and simply clicking Ctrl + to make the text bigger or Ctrl - to make the text smaller. On the 19" PC monitor & 42" HDTV, by default settings, I don't see any problems. Maybe cause I use Facebook & Twitter all the time. Only change I would like to the new forum is maybe a bigger default text. But that's pretty much it.
I think the forum would be fine if they just made the font size bigger, and more clearly delineated between each post. Feature wise, it's OK, and having the forum list down the left works really well.
Pingfah, have you considered using the user script? It really makes the forum almost look like before. The font is readable, the background isn't as gleaming, the posts are not morphing into each other ... PJ_Soul posted the link above. Give it a try!
Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!
