as for the email... I am showing it "hidden" for Skuzzy, Hub, JanneK, republic, but others are showing. I went in and did choose "hide" for my account too.
I don't know what to put here yet.

As Gaidin said, I am not able to post in any of the private forums we (CMs) are part of.

JB -- I'm not seeing your email icon any more after a cntl-f5 (complete refresh of my browser window).  Are you seeing mine?

You're not seeing any of the contact garbage for me now? I can send myself ICQ, IM, email, PMs... maybe it just shows the user all of the stuff they would never need, while hiding it from the other users.

Can't you change the generic zinc, silver, gold, platinum, etc. member thing to something more interesting like n00b, picker, addict and dweeb or something?
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I am still seeing my own F5 and ctrl-f5 but I am in firefox

All I have ever seen in your posts are AOL, Yahoo, view profile, your website is urbandictionary.com and the option to PM

Yup, no private forums allow starting new threads or replying :(

First impression of the new appearance is lots of little useless and confusing items, auto scrolling texts, flashing, etc. Everything one wants to divert people's attention away from THE ACTUAL TEXT :(


... and let's add those ugly smiles above to the same whine.

I was trying to use the search but cant just search for posts for a user it says Did you forget to put something to search for? No I didnt forget because I only want to search for posts made by a specific person, is this not possible any more?

I can't seem to hide my e-mail address either.  I chose hide in preferences.

Apparently when a user selects the hide options, it shows them to the user only, but no one else.

Yes, you will always see your own email address, regardless of the settings.  Others cannot see it.

Squad baords should be functioning normally now.

Skuzzy that link doesn't display a list of forums for me to select just a white page.

Not a big deal though.  I guess the moderation part needs to be worked on.

but transposing the thread ID number manually does

kind of sucks to lose all those bookmarked threads
