I'm LEAVING Because of This New Format!!!

[Texaggie79]

This is Horrible. I can't stand this. I actually have to look to the other side of the page for the exact same links. There is different look to the site. This is just wrong. I'm calling my psychic!!!!!

It now tells me right when I get in if I have replies! That's so wrong! I liked to click on self search every minute to check if anything was new. I can't believe we have a choice of what topics we have on our sidebar!!! I want to be forced to accept Breaking News and Front Page only!!!

Change makes me paranoid!!! I can't stand having to take 2 minutes to get readjusted to the format. I'm gone GOOD BYE

Well, I'm gonna be upset if I can't set a "A moose bit my sister once. I like cheese" topic squarely at the top of each and every page.

Here...this will tell you just how far you've had to move it...that way you can tell if it's really working harder or if it's fibbing to you....Mouse Odometer

Buh Bye, Kansas. Get on the bus!!

New format? What new format? Just thought I was still buzzin.

[Roscoe]

Heheheh.

Personally I think the border is too fat and most of all...the paragraphs seem smaller and take up too much space. THey need to truncate the number of words in the introducing paragraph so we can read more than one article without having to scroll so much.

I can only imagine how these monkeys would whine if there were no freepmail, self-search, search, homepage, state page, logging in/out, set and determined screen name, etc...

Well, let me tell you about another website I used to frequent back when I had a 32 inch waist...

Kansas=Indiana. Doh!

Even though I haven't even been a member for a year yet, I just can't bear to think of life with this new format. I have forgotten what the first 32 years of my life was like before I found Free Republic. They couldn't have been very good.

That's it, man!

It's OVER!!!
O.K. everyone. I'm only kidding!

That's right. Get our hopes up and then pull the rug out from under us at the last minute.

Tease.

;-)

I am not going to let some little turtle win...lol.

Good grief, now we quit over the format????

I'm shocked at how many FLORiDUH/Palm Beach voters were inadvertently uncovered here at FR by the new format.

"Boo, hoo... sniff..sniff.. what happened to my sidebar?" as they stare blankly at the explicit instructions how to subscribe to the different sidebars.

He'll be back. Just wait until the "shakes" set in.

[Texaggie79]

I set in personal settings to just have headers.

[Don Carlos]

Can sumthin be done about double posts?

You will be missed.

Dibs on Tex's clothes! :-)

That's a feature I'd like. I assume it is one of the light splotches on the pale grey background somewhere.
I'd ask someone to post a picture of the screen in black type so I'd know what is on it, but without being able to read it, navigation is haphazard.

[HairOfTheDog]

Tex.... You freaked me out for a minute... I thought - no not Texaggie too!!!! Naive of me, I know.

I love the New Free Republic!

and even if I didn't, I think folk who are freaked at a little font and color change need to immediately move to a more ventilated area

[Texaggie79]

The self search is what REALLY sets this site out from the rest. It has totally spoiled me. I have almost completely given up other forums, no matter what they are about. Even the reply to is quite rare. It is SOO hard to keep up whith who is talking to who on boards like Fark.com.
