Not sure if this is the right place for this question...but I'm confused about this new format.

When I look at posts there are lots of 'quotations' and other wording that looks like there should be an image there, but there isn't...hard to understand what this stuff means.

Can I fix on my end, or does it need help from the home office?

The other question I must ask...why was there a need for this overhaul?? Perhaps others have asked... but I'm not sure I understand.

Thanks for the time.

Can you give me a link to a post that shows this? I know what you're talking about but I can't find one displaying that way right now.

Why... when I click on a post to read, does it take me right back to the first post in the thread not the last one I've read? What do I need to reset? BIG

I tried that and changed a bunch of different options, but I could not figure out how to do it.

Yes, I've played with the different options too. It changes the way the threads are viewed, but it still doesn't take you to the newest post of the thread where I left off. The way it was you would click on a thread that, say I read yesterday, I click on the same thread the next day and it takes me to the the first new post at the point I left off the day before. It was like the old system held a cookie for everybody, that remembered where everybody left off on every thread at their particular point in time. I tried clicking the New Posts button and it shows me all the new posts for the whole site. Not what I was looking for. Linear goes one way or the other, no in between. Hybrid or Threaded doesn't achieve the desired results either.
Any ideas??

one thing that I found is that there is no listing of a members real name in their profile. It's nice to know what a persons real name is when you pm them or when you read one of their posts. Real names were in the profile with the old software.

Chuck,

You need to edit your date and time in user cp/edit options. Scroll down to date and time and set it to GMT-8, Pacific time
