Bring back the old format

[calif 15-22]

GOEX FFF settings mentioned above make a world of difference especially the display. No granted I still want my iTrader rating back, but like disco and unprotected sex, those days are gone. ?

Kudos to Kestryll and all the admins for getting us back online and back complaining about the forum and each other. Lol

Give the new forum a chance.

You really want anyone to believe you never logged on in 2023 to experience the 'performance'?

And you never read any of Kestryll's posts on migration?

It just seems that some people are never happy, unless they're always complaining.....

FWIW: I only log in/use Calguns via my laptop, while I'm at home using high speed internet. I never use my smart phone.

Using high speed internet (on both the old & new format), this new format is lightning speed faster when compared to how the older format was running just prior to the migration. I really like the dark format; it's so much easier on my eyes than the super white bright modes. Using the picture downloading format here from my laptop, couldn't be any easier & the quality is much better on this new format. It's not even a close comparison between the 2, IMO!

"An accountant" < If you think you could do a better job- & create a better platform/website (instead of mocking the people who worked so & spent so much time getting this back up & operational)... go for it.
This new format really isn't that difficult to figure out. If you don't like this new format or it's too challenging for you, you can always log out & leave.

^ +1 It took me a couple of days exploring around here on my laptop, trying to find my bearings & get a better feel navigating this new format, I spent some of my valuable time, investing in educating myself- reading a few thread's here in Tech Support, which helped me immensely, trying to figure out a few things (locations/tabs/other small details) I had been having issues with.....
Now, this new format is working so much better & is way faster (no comparison).

I would like to also, reiterate:
Kudos to Kestryll and all the admins for getting us back online.

Be careful what you wish for!

Some folks like myself created a new platform and opted to implement a number of features that were or are currently missing. I started building it when there were problems out of frustration. Not sure if my site helped to bump the upgrade time but glad CGN site is faster. The marketplace is a lot more difficult to navigate these days, which is what I tried to make it searchable faster, cleaner, and more efficient.

There's a lot of work that goes into these kinds of sites and I'd rather they get pulled out of the big sites.

There's still a number of issues that are existing which have been discussed. Hopefully those get worked out.

This new format isn't perfect, but it is much more efficient, and overall much better. But hey, I get it, with some of these guys here not being happy.... I like so many others, wasn't very happy, losing my extensive 100% iTrader reputation I spent so many years building up here; but I have no one to blame but myself for that. I don't spend a whole lot of time here & just missed all the stickies/banners that were evidently plastered everywhere.

Kudos to you, for having the aptitude/technical knowledge, to take on these types of challenges, head on, & at least invest your valuable time trying to come up with a better solution... instead of just whining about it. * Maybe your site did in fact help bump this upgrade! ??

Your site is easier to navigate, easier to search and easier to find new posts. It also didn't have a million posts to migrate from an old system to a new one.

iTrader was the biggest topic of discussion before the migration; it did not move, the application code was never ported to VB 5 or 6 by the developer (last release seems to have been 2009)

I don't mind the new version. The problem I have is that I suddenly can't post photos at all, and I can only post links to videos, instead of having the video itself show up.

Have you tried cut/paste a photo? Here I used the snipping tool, cut & paste

i dont like that on the bottom right there use to be a way to scroll through the forums and its not there anymore. So I have to scroll all the way back up just to get to the main forum. In most cases OT or Marketplace. Thats my thing. Unless somebody knows how to fix this??

I had the same issue but I found a "Go to top" button in the bottom right corner that saves some of the scrolling.

yes, it sucks now and there are other examples that require one to scroll all the way up when in the past you did not have to. I don't know if VB was bought out by a special needs school, or a blind programmers group, or an AA coders club - but it is just stupid what they have done to it.
