Moderator Goff Posted September 9, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 9, 2009 I may well be a kick of the ar$e from Scotlandshire, but we don't tent to put upgrades down our pants south of the wall. Our software is up to the job, the firmware is always in a serviceable condition too...... Absolutely useless statement without piccies.......

vic-fzr600 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Absolutely useless statement without piccies....... That would require a whole different section to the forum!! Members only?? lol A friend uses a very popular car-owners forum (which shall remain nameless for the minute) which has an area for members to upload pics of their cars, often including scantily clad / naked lovelies! I'm sure similar would see subscriptions soar! Wanna start it off Goff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterC Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'm glad it is not just me finding the forum so very slowww. I have had to use the fast reply button as the normal reply button hadn't done anything in over a minute. It's tedious and I am now not reading all the posts - takes too long.

Admin Alex Posted September 11, 2009 Admin Share Posted September 11, 2009 Hiya all, thanks for the feedback. I will start with the flats, the flag system was a module which was installed which isn't yet compatible with the latest version of the forum software. We will be re-installing this once there is a stable release of the module. In regards to speed, the forum should actually be quicker due to server upgrades and database changes. It seems a few of you are noticing issues and I will be looking into it. Cheers ALex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas up - Let's Go! Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I was seeing slow responses, very slow at times, but then again there have been some quality of service issues in the UK backbone that are affecting some locations and service providers, so I put it down to that!

Moderator Cynic Posted September 12, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 12, 2009 Got to say, the visuals are just different. Funnily enough i miss the 'top' button. But the biggest annoyance is that it is slow. I use 3 or 4 windows in internet ex. Read the pages and when it goes on strike flick to the next screen while it catches up. Last night i went on to the TDR forum and went on there while i waited for things to happen.As i figured i was making it wors being signed in 3-4 times at a sitting.

barkwindjammer Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 Happy to comment that the New Look YOC is bounding along like a happy bunny once again, and I've nearly forgotten how much the 'old faithfull' was easier on the eye, getting used to the new more user friendly lay-out, 'praise be' to Alexasigno and the rest of the YOC admin and Mods in fact I'm so 'settled' and impressed I nearly got a tenner out, an' 'am a Jock ! tak many a cup o kindness yet for auld lang syne.

Moderator DirtyDT Posted September 22, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 22, 2009 The heading said "New Look" and I only came here because I thought it was a thread about a clothes shop! Much better than Primark, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
