LW and IE

[whinewine]

Hey guys, it was not taken personally at all, and no apologies are necessary. As I stated in my original post, we DO need to know what you are experiencing (good, bad, or otherwise), and the more factual details you can provide us, the more helpful it is. It's understandable people are going to vent... but while it may help you feel better, it really doesn't solve anything.

I get the impression that some of you are concerned that we're going to just shrug off the issues and allow it to continue running this way. Please rest assured this is not what we consider "normal" operation, and we have no intention of allowing it to continue running this way. Many of you have provided very useful feedback in helping us document the problems and send them to the developers of this forum system for resolution, and progress is being made by the hour. Thanks for your assistance!

Cheers,

Kate

One of the problems I am still experiencing is that I need to sign in each & every time I reenter the site. most of the time I forget. This is annoying (& yes, I haven't deleted my cookies). It is also still very slow in comparison to what was, even on FF3. I haven't tried to enter from the browser I use for everything else (I don't even know what it is- it's through my msn/dsl connection).The last time I tried, everything locked up.There are other things i don't like (yet), but I'm hoping to, whenever the bugs are worked out. So far, I'm not impressed,(& I see no new features that I can particularly use yet, or any that particularly wow me), but I'm trying to be positive. So I'll just shut my mouth & exhibit some well needed patience & wait.

All I see is the great potential of the new software. It has all the things I've been hoping for, with the promise of even more. The buggaboos will get fixed, and this too will be forgotten with a little time. Look how many people here don't even know about the "Big Crash"

IE seems to be the big problem, but that's understandable. Microsoft has always tried to bully its way into being THE standard, while the rest of the world developed a cooperative standard. MS just doesn't play well with others. Teacher Parent conference will be necessary...lol.

The feed back from users here has, I'm sure greatly helped J&K and the others to make this work, and they've done a helluva job, right in front of everyone, not behind super closed doors. That takes guts, I tell u.

There are a lot of people who don't like change. It works for me! Why fix it. I really do understand their feelings, but change is the most basic of human development. Some do get left behind. Others get mad and go elsewhere, but the majority work with what they have. Whether that's good or bad, I can't say. I'm just hoping we don't lose a single User. We all need each other more than we know.

I still consider this forum, to be an historical part of Leather Working. The Guild of all Guilds. It's definitely not something I thought I'ld ever see.

Meanwhile, when I click "view new posts" the first time comes up "no new posts". If i click again, up comes the new posts. I happens quite often (this is on firefox 3.5.2).

Speed has definitely increased. Page loads take a few time units longer than they used to, but I think the adverts loading has more to do with it than anything else. A few milliseconds is not that important to me, especially if it helps pay the bills, and informs the leatherworker of new potentials.

Thanx Johanna, and everyone else who have worked so hard!
