how do you turn it off (I ask because I also read_by_highlighting 
and quoting annoys me)
I think so too
I think it canât be changed
btw the board is jacked right now. Canât load pages, error messages all over the place, when pages load, it only loads to the first post in the thread.
Somebody unplugged something important back there!
@nowaysj Its pretty amusing to me that you have loads of complaints, but you have the most posts of anyone by 50+ and the highest visits 
Not to say they arnt vaild, just like âugh this is awfulâ with 550+ posts, I mean it cant be THAT bad haha

I use the site more than anyone else, it only follows that Iâm more aware of its profound deficiencies vs the 90âs tech yâall used to useâŚ

The main thing i dislike about new forum is that itâs a âweb appâ on phones so when itâs loading a page you donât see the URL loading like normal, just an ambiguous spinning circle
Also it crashes my iPhone back to home menu loaadss
and I co sign on wanting individual pages
I like how easy it is to see updated threads though, and that you can @ someone and theyâll notice. Like RKM @'ed me in that production thread I prolly would not have clicked otherwise

never crashed me back to home, but I do get A LOT of âSorry, something went wrong :(â and âWe canât load that page right nowâ. Performance on my phone is good though, no long load times, all good (iPhone 6).
itâs a checkbox in preferences; somewhere after the notification stuff.
I canât speak for everyone, but I actively checked my emails only two or three times a week so I didnât even realise you got email alerts on the old forum
you didnât really, and that will change when you leave high school if iâm honest lol
Lowkey par, I thought we were boys
not a par at all, i didnât use email for shit until college
Tbf I do get daily updates on my phone, but Iâm unless Iâm expecting something (e.g. From student finance or whatever) I donât actively check it cause everything else is shit I cba with like discogs updates
There wasnât email until I left college.

so true.
still didnât get dsf updates, that shit is annoying as bumcancer.
lol, this is exactly why I said the reply button is annoying. I too highlight while reading. Just hitting reply doesnât quote the text. Canât make for some slightly confusing reads unless youâre constantly scanning to look to see if a reply is to someone directly or to the thread overall.
Its not horrible by all means, just seems a lil backwards and confusing at times.
sometimes when you visit a looooong thread with loads of posts, you start at the bottom (most recent) but you canât scroll to the start of the thread, you just get a spinning circle buffering thing and the posts donât load. Noticed it a couple of times today (Chrome)
Is there a way to mark all âunread threadsâ as âreadâ? just something annoying me about having 18 unreads and half are threads I cant be arsed to look at haha
Click âDismiss Postsâ at the top right part of that page.
