    The features suck. All they did was take away. So what if a you tube video can be embedded. That seems like the only benefit. Furthermore, the embedding of a youtube video WAS ALREADY an available add on the site that they used to have. "mobile view"...... also available as an add on to the site they USED to have. The extremely sad truth is that this site is simply dirt cheap as fuck in comparison.

    ENJOY!

    I do like the private messaging better in the new forum.

    I had a nice collection of PMs. Now there is no way to navigate through them. I liked my inbox, outbox, drafts, and not yet picked up box.

    They took so much away, I feel like I'm in a bubble when I come to the site.

    They did team up with a bubble gum quality host, so it's no wonder!

    the smiley faces suck too. i meant to put the "thumbs down" one here but it is nowhere to be found.

    They must still be upgrading cause every time I log into my account I keep getting the "We're over capacity" screen. I don't have any problems viewing the board on my smartphone, but on my desktop PC, it always happens.

    I'm sure this has been asked 1000 times but why, why, why oh 10C did you make these disastrous changes and why won't you change back? I was just telling a non-PJ fan, last night, how the 10C has basically driven most of "our" people away for no conceivable reason. The 100s of people who helped me thru some real bad stuff have mostly jumped ship. I am so grateful to know these people but the "community" here is dying everyday. Why, Kat???

    No more logging in daily to check on my pj peeps. Logging in from time to time to see if anything has changed. Nope. See ya in month or so to recheck. Blergh.

    It seems pretty fucking obvious from reading the last several posts (written by long-time, mindfully intelligent and astute members) that this new forum layout totally sucks. The legacy script has made reading the forum easier for me personally but not everyone is able to use it and besides, why should we need to download something extra to make this site more usable when it was more usable before the change- especially, as it has been pointed out, when the cost of admission has gone up? No one wants to pay more for a new product that is in all most all respects inferior to the old one which was less expensive to begin with.

    With all due respect, 10C, it's time to listen to your long time faithful supporters, fans and friends and own up to the fact that the new layout was a mistake and fix it, PLEASE!

    This is how I feel the new forum was presented.

    That about sums it up.

    Now the bigger question ... how the hell did they get KITT back out of the apartment?

    Sadly it seems pretty fucking obvious that no one is listening and nothing is going to change. I've posted this before - is this some weird way for the 10C to kill the forum? Because that's what seems to be happening.

    I miss everybody.

    I have a name for this new stinky forum of the great band Pearl Jam whose fan club doesn't give a crap or poo poo about its members.

    'WELCOME TO THE PIT PITS"
    "We're big on respect here". ....oh yeah SUURRRREEEE it so self evident exactly how big. so, so big.

    I mean big. There is so much respect, decency, and Let your Voice Be Heard as it echoes over the barren land happening around here, it is hardly conceivable how much.

    No, I mean it.
    Really. The changes made are superb. Sit and observe how everyone is adoring and singing about how highly superior this forum has raised itself to.
    No, I mean it, I feel like clapping alot and everything..

    Hey Kat, is 10C aware that everyone keeps getting this error page that says "SORRY! SOMETHINGS WRONG!" while using the forum right now? It usually works after another try or two, but there is clearly something wrong with the forum! And people are also getting that 503 error and over capacity screen randomly too.

    Yes and it's good that you report it here when it happens. It seems to be intermittent right now but it's being checked out. Thank you.
