The forum page is really cleaned up. Looks good! Is this why it was so slow this morning?

I’D BE HAPPY TO CLEAN MY 10 YEARS OR HOWEVER LONG OF OLD MAIL OUT
IF
I COULD HAVE A PREVIEW PANE.
Sigh.
BUT I LIKE the new look. Much cleaner and easier to read etc.
Now about the RSS . . . how does one take advantage of that and what are the implications?

I have a ton of treasures mixed in with all the FREEPMAIL chaff. I’d hate to lose those.

>>> what is the difference between Active Articles and Latest Articles? <<<
Latest Article are listed in chronilogical order.
Active Articles are listed in chroniclogical order of THE LAST POST TO THAT THREAD.
For instance, a story that was posted yesterday and is still being commented on gets ‘bumped to the top’ of the “Active Artcles” list.
To me, it makes a lot of sense.
Have you ever clicked on an interesting looking thread in the “Latest Comments” page, only to find out that the article is three weeks old? Example.... You click on “Top Staffers Resign From McCain Campain!!!” only to find out that the story was from last summer when his campaign was in the dumps.
Also, I remember when Mel Gibson was arrested for drunk driving and his anit-semetic slurs were top news.
Even though I check this site regularly for updates, I didn’t hear about it for some time because the story was buring somewhere in the forum. The new page would bump the story up to the top each time a comment was made.
Anyway, the new list should give us the best of both worlds.

While we are making suggestions, I would like to see a red “YOU HAVE POSTS” on the threads you are reading.
Currently we have to click on the “PINGS” button, guessing that we might have comments. Or we have to go to a refreshed News/Chat page to see it in the upper right hand corner.

When I go to that link, there’s NO post buttons on the right of my screen.
Note. I do NOT have the sidebar up ever or virtually never.

I noticed it, too. Much cleaner looking, no?
I don’t use many of the features, so I won’t know what, if any, other improvements might be. Can you post what all you’ve noticed so far? I did notice the RSS. I {think} the “review” on the “more” page is new, but doesn’t work.
Thanks.

I want folders. For my FReep mail, for my “pings”, and for my bookmarks or, at least, a way to organize/categorize them.
I’d be willing to pay a “SuperFreep” subscription for those. LOL

Do you have the “Popular Keywords” and “Browse by Forum” areas at the top right? If not you may want to bring the sidebar up; not that I know what that means.

Now if they would just add a check box in the freep mail page to delete all old mail at once.
You've got FReepmail.
Evidently.
