It looks better, but no self-search?

I wrote to JimRob to ask him whether he could make a mega forum that encompasses all the topic forums.

"As COBOL programmers would say, "GOBACK"!"
As GRANNY used to say, "Some people would belly ache if the ice cream was too cold".

I'm not impressed; it's busy, and takes up too much spaceA cautious agreement. (I don't mean to offend the esteemed people here.)
I am not certain why there are now differnt "areas" - perhaps to help the bandwidth or for indexing? But I feel cut off from other "groups." I enjoyed seeing what was coming to the "top" of the latest posts - usually politics, but sometimes a vanity or a cartoon. And I liked bumping them to the top. But the other format tonight had no excitement; I had no sense of what the "hot" articles and topics were. It was just a long list of article descriptions.
I'm so happy to see this old format back now. When I want to see additional "articles posted" I just check them out. But for the latest replies, I love the way it was. Can we just be traditional?

I see, self-search on the thread, but not the main page.

I customized mine and it is not much different than when I came to this website pretty nears it's inception. Jim has never taken away any thing from this site he has just added to it! This website is incredible, it is the best message board out there bar-none. I think you might find it worth the time to customize your user options. Thanks again Jim!
I do wish it had spelling though, I'm dyslexic!

Two problems from my point of view
1. Im seeing Government, Business/Economics, Breaking News, Front Page, etc., all running together.
2. I likes the way it was before (yesterday) where you saw, title, source, post #, and from who/to who.
COBOL rules!

It's the lowest in Faber history. Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son.

On the Self Search page, now renamed 'My Comments' which, in another nit, I preferred the original, you appear to be missing a paragraph tag between entries when shown in brief.

STOP RUN.
To: Don Carlos
STOP RUN</>Sorry, but my compiler doesn't recognize that command.
To: NovemberCharlie
The format is much too broad. The material runs way off the screen. In fact, the recent changes to the old program have been running off the screen.

Just as long as it's FR, and it works. You can bring it on live now if you want. Looks mighty fine to me.

I've found that if I have no posts in the central area, it conforms to my window. Unfortunately, that feature is of extremely limited utility.
