    The only thing that bothers me,and its not that big of a deal is that when i log in with my user name of dave grolsch and i,m welcomed back as dave grolsch,but as soon as i post i,m cs247979. :?:
    I think this new board is great already and is obviously gonna get better,if some people are keeping away because of a new post button missing,or whatever seems strange to me, :?

    has anybody mentioned the constant logging in? usually i could just bookmark the page and be logged in...now we have to go through the homepage and login all the time....maybe im doing wrong but it seems trivial anyhow.

    I find the opposite happening. It never logs me out unless I manually log out.

    1. Hovering over a thread title to get the first sentence or so of the first post.
    2. Adjusting how many posts show up per page within a thread.

    oh...i miss SPEED! this place is soooo slow in comparision. i hate having to click on a thing to be able to go and see your post right after making it. i miss the little symbol showing you that you posted in a thread, i miss the little chek mark next to threads you subscribed to.
    P

    At first I thought you said you missed SPEEDY! ! :)

    I miss what everyone else has already mentioned AND when you get an email about a reply it used to show the actual reply made...I liked that.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

    my old post count
    my old username
    non ten clubbers posting
    the post count names

    amen. i don't like it here. it's elitist (ten clubbers only, for fucks sake), it's too complicated (keep it simple stupid), it's frustrating (i can logon using my old name but can't post with it and can't change this dumb name/number - wtf?!)
    y'know, i miss everything about the old pit and i wish they'd never forced this change on us! yes, yes i know some people don't like change but i usually don't mind - this time tho...this is just dumbass.

    bye

    Just email the 10c and they will sync your accounts up so you can get your name back. The date isn't the 10c join date, it's the pit at least for the majority. :)

    Yep! It's the pit's join date! As they started back in '98! Year later I got logged into the Matrix! :shock:

    I sometimes miss the old "Southern Thread" when we all "pleaded" our case to have Pearl Jam visit the South. It finally happened! So - I understand why the tread was "laid to rest" It was time.
    I don't "post" often - but do "check in" once in awhile. I certainly don't miss the "snakebites" some people gave to Southern Pearl Jam fans. We DO exist! I also have much respect for younger Pearl Jam fans.....However - Respect remains a two-way street. I was raised on "Beatles" music. I was just a few days short of turning 17 when John Lennon was murdered. I was young once, too. And I also still have the ability to respect bands I LOVE AS WELL!. My husband and I will always love Pearl Jam's music...and will always continue to do so.

    And a funny message when you hover on that section (instead of the Birdy)

    just noticed they added the albums covers in the available default avatars too.

    And the friends/foe list on 'notebook' paper in your profile (otoh, the profiles of others are still listing very little info..there's someone in my friends list I don't know who it is :| )

    The format, I like the old look better, easier and quicker to read through posts, this is kinda confusing :?
    Plus the page load speed.

    absolutely

    that was one of the first things I noticed and I was not happy that the feature was not included on this site
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    I miss not having to log in every time. Since I only come here when I'm on my home computer, I never had to log out of the old pit. Now I can go away and come back 10 minutes later and have to log back on.

    Birthdays are now showing on the Forum front page but only if you add it to your forum profile...you don't have to add the year for it to appear. :)

    I've had trouble with that on and off. Some times I stay logged in and other times I don't. I don't get it either but I'm glad it's just a simple click. :? :)
    I was wondering about that too. And just a simple click? Tell that to everyone on ticket day when they're getting logged in and out! :lol: :roll: ;)
