    While I appreciate the lines between posts getting darker (so, proof that they are trying), it's not enough ... needs to be a bit more delineation between posts. Also what would help, limit the size of people's signatures ... there is someone on this board rocking a huge pic and a gif ... each one of their posts takes up half my screen. And let's not get into when they post multiple times in the same page. @-)

    I'm sure this has all been mentioned earlier in this thread, but ... the search function is still not working either.

    Here's hoping for more improvements.

    This all said, I'd gladly give them all up for Ten Club Radio to stop cutting out every 5 minutes.

    I totally agree, especially about the lines, jimed14. Something as simple as boxes around the posts would help delineate them. Changes the light blue to a more eye-friendly color would tone down the glare.

    Fix fix fix, patch patch patch. Why this site was made with so many adjustments required to make it readable in the first place is beyond me. Did someone actually get paid to design this thing or did somebody's kid get to make this up for their school project? Ridiculous.

    Whats amazing is how bad it looks and reads compared to the old forum. I've accepted this is whats its gonna be now, but my enjoyment of this forum has dropped dramatically. Nobody can actually think this looks better can they?? I agree about the lines. Why not clean boxes like the old forum? This just all seems so messy. Im having a very difficult time finding any threads I wanna look at simply because it now seems like too much work just to figure out where posts/threads start and end. I know its not that hard, but should be much clearer than it is.

    I just hope they keep trying to improve this new look. Surely 10c must be reading some of our concerns and working on them…right? Ive never seen such a universal agreement amongst this community about a subject. This must be noticed and addressed by the 10c. Especially when some of the most frequent posters/regulars are unhappy. Not to mention many of these members are ones I've rarely if ever seen complain. Myself included. Ive always defended 10c and DO think they do an incredible job which is what has made me always wanna come back to the forum. It felt so different and better than any other social media I'd seen. Oh well, enough rambling. Hope it gets better.

    You mean this option?

    Thank god for this option. But it only works if you are logged into your account. I wish the new board abolishes all sigs altogether cause it totally doesn't look good when viewing the message board, if you are not logged in and have these options disabled. Certain signatures have embed YouTube video clips & big ass photos that take up half the screen.

    I can hardly believe that the search function hasn't been fixed yet. It's pretty important!

    The email notifications are now going out on a delay it seems, by quite a bit - just got an email for a post made 45 minutes ago.... I'm hoping this means they are fucking around with the function in an effort to stop us from getting an email for every single post!

    I am getting less email notifications, and that is helping a lot. However, I still don't have much desire to come here, and it was a place I loved.

    How are you getting e-mails? I get one if I get a PM, but that's it.

    If you click the little star next to the thread title, it bookmarks it for you, and you receive e-mail notification when someone posts. I was getting so many for a while, but it seems to have slowed down.

    There was a delay on them earlier, so something seems to be happening, but they are still coming in

    I just got the Speedy one in my spam, and all the others in my in-box, so not sure what that's all about!
