[OFFICIAL SOFTWARE UPGRADE] Help and Bug Thread

[Synthaholic]

First off, let me say that I'm thrilled that I had to make three clicks instead of one to even quote this message. That's certainly an 'upgrade.'

I don't even know where the like and agree buttons are. I don't see any thanks button. That's also another brilliant 'upgrade.'

Please describe the three clicks.

You do not have to hit Quote to quote someone. Just hitting Reply will do that.

If you have been hitting Quote each time, you now have a huge list of quoted posts stored in a list that you need to remove.

I changed my "rating" of this post like 15 times. Did your Alerts box get spammed?
Inquiring minds want to know...

Nope. Just one to a customer I guess.

You don't see a thumbs up icon followed by a green checkmark icon and a red X on every post?

Which is more than I did. If I had ever posted in one my rep would have been a lot lower because I would have let them have it with all the contempt I could muster.

You forgot to add *sniff**sniff*

Gateway errors are server issues caused by the servers not communicating with each other, and have nothing to do with the forum. As for load times, I have not seen a significant improvement with the new software. In fact, I have seen that loading actually takes longer for routine tasks, and I can't even get one page to load at all, despite multiple attempts.

You sure are bitching a lot for someone who supposedly supports business decisions.

Especially since you have no skin in the game, son.

Ok still can't edit. Cant go invisible can't put cute saying next to avatar. These are important. Lol

You are invisible. You show as offline to me, although I believe you show online to you, and only you.

"You...are...invisible....to me..." - great song by Joe Cocker!

and now my tagline is gone and replaced with "Senior Member", even though the tagline survived the initial migration.

very curious

If I go back to my Paul Ryan avatar, I'll have to pay money to call him a doofus!

 

[Mr. H.]

Nope. Just one to a customer I guess.

Thank you, Synthaholic.

I've learned a lot about some of the members during this transition.

I wish I could rep you for that!

(hey bub - that's my smiley link you're appropriating there...)

 

[Synthaholic]

Anybody got some spare change?

Nope. Got plenty of Hope and Change, though.

Obama 2016!

No. There's a few from you, liking my posts (of course).

Why did you remove a feature of the board that was present yesterday? There was a little red tab on the bottom right of the screen which when pressed took you to the top of the page. I really like that but now it's gone.

Mine is still there.

 

[Mr. H.]

Woo hoo my favorite emoticons are back.

 

[Mr. H.]

Mine is still there.

I've yet to see one.

 

[boedicca]

The Ignore Feature is incredible! The offending party has completely disappeared...even from quotes.

Two Thumbs Up!

 

[Mr. H.]

Ha! Take that, bitches.

 

[Rikurzhen]

Mine is still there.

So I'm hearing. Mine is gone. I did a Flash auto-upgrade this morning. Maybe that did it.

I miss my Red Button. Not to be confused with "I miss Red Buttons who was great in the Poseiden Adventure."

All of my Mafia bookmarks went Bye-bye. I can access others that were internet URLs, but everything that I bookmarked that had a USMB URL is gone....argh......and now I can't figure out how to bookmark specific posts.
