    I used to REALLY enjoy coming on the PJ Forum to keep in touch with old friends and meet new ones!
    Maybe it's my aging eyes, but the new format is so difficult for me to read!
    I just can't handle the eyestrain & headaches I get when trying read the boards now.

    I'm not getting email notifications at all but interestingly, this coincides with my turning off that function on FaceBook. Hey, maybe FB bought out 10C and pretty soon it will be known as FB10C or FumbleTence or something.

    Re. Abe Froman's well stated post above, I often wonder if the powers-that-be are reading any of this.

    No time/energy to scroll through 48 pages of discussion. Is the "first new post" button still around anywhere? I don't see anything like that.

    Seems quite consistent now that when in the mobile format, I hit "post comment" and nothing happens. When I let the draft save and switch over to full site, the draft is there and I hit "post comment" and it posts. Seems like this is a problem that should be addressed. Otherwise, I admit, I have adjusted and all seems ok. The fact that this change caused me to feel so disrupted actually made me take a step back and reevaluate my priorities a bit. I know this place is fun and a great way to connect with other people who share love for this band and what they've created over the years but, for me anyway, too much of a good thing isn't necessarily better.

    I was having the same problem, then last night it worked. On my computer now, so not sure if it acted up again. But, it does seem like something that works at least from time to time. Hopefully, they will make sure its fixed for good.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    It is still giving me an headache... Why are the letters so small? They don't want old people to get on the forum? Seriously, my eyes are good, but I have to squint here. In the name of all that is good, who though that this was move "forward".

    Reminds of a quote of an American which name I forgot: "Not all progression is good." This is a prime example.

    I rather have an Atari format.

    I glad 62 isn't considered old any more. hahaha!

    I tried the reverse image greasemonkey thing but that wasn't a great alternative. Surely toning this thing down, changing out the brilliant blue for something easier on the eyes, eliminating some of the white, surrounding post with boxes not just lines- these can't be that difficult for a web designer to do. There are PLENTY of other sites that are easier to read. This is the Pearl Jam fan site. Lets have a first rate site for a first rate band!

    Hey Kat, is it possible to reverse the the order in which PMs are displayed? Right now they show first to lr from the top, which means you have to scroll through all of the previous messages between yourself and the other person. In some cases I have 50 PMs I have to scroll through to get down to the message field. Can the PMs be displayed in

    Brian, a bunch of updates were made with the greasemonkey thing last night, and it's even better now. I suggest you check it out again. It looks really great now! :) If it still doesn't work for you, well...... not sure that anything except the old forum will! ;)

    Dear Pearl Jam,

    Nice forum you have going here, I'm being sarcastic

    Are you, the band, really so trusting that you have no idea that YOUR fan club doesn't give a shit about YOUR fans.

    Is there no oversight on part of the band as to the amount of complaints voiced in a thousand ways ?

    Does Pearl Jam really not give a crap that its own fan club doesn't give a crap?

    I am just wondering

    Go ahead and kick me out of the "CLUB" if anybody feels that this is necessary. It seems to be a reasonable way of dealing with complaints.

    Maybe I'm walking on thin ice, but in my opinion the forum already sunk

    Sincerely,

    rollings

    No way. Rollings goes, I go.

    Seriously, Mods, please listen to your fan club members. We're just speaking our minds here and being honest.
