Helen - how about some Wine or chocolate in place of worms?

I'd like the threads I'm on etc at the bottom of a page. Not sure of this floaty thing people are getting upset about - looks like I'm too late to the party again!

BahSaidPaschaHumbug · 05/12/2012 17:35

I miss it too. I used it all the time. Now thread browsing takes twice as long.......

soapnuts · 05/12/2012 17:14

noooo I loved the floating bar! I'm constantly having to scroll all the way to the top to click on active threads - at the end would be better than nothing but I have it set to not have pages so some of the threads are really really long and it takes ages to scroll to the top or the bottom!

Bring back the bar!

Shock Sad

I want it back!

I hardly ever read all the way to the bottom. I have a short attention span.

Lougle · 05/12/2012 17:03

I admit I wasn't keen on the fat icons for FB/twitter, etc., but functionally I loved it (the bits that worked).

TigerFeet · 05/12/2012 16:59

New thing Shock SIOB. I hate change. Make it go away.

Oh. It's still there.

Well I suppose, seeing as how it's there, I might as well make use of it.

Hmm. I suppose it's quite handy actually.

Oooh! This IS rather lovely isn't it!

YOU'VE TAKEN IT AWAY :(

I WANT MY FLOATY THING BACK Angry

^^ that's me, that is

Aww, I just feel a bit bad for them.

I mean they've created this awesome site that we all use far too much, they work really hard and try and listen to everyone and yet all they get is bloody complaints.

I mean seriously how many whingey threads are there on here every bloody day? You just can't please this many people all the time.

They're always so patient when they answer but dear God they must feel like banging their heads against a wall!

They are more than accommodating when people gripe about things and always try and be fair but who's site is it exactly?

It's not on the mobile site or apps, just the main site.

What is it with people and change?

A new thing? oh now, I don't want that
Ok, you can opt out if you like
NO! that's not good enough, I will still be haunted by it, begone terrible new thing!

It even had a little 'x' at the side to get rid of it for when you weren't signed in for crying out loud.

Oh well, it's not important enough to moan to HQ about. They can't win either way!

lubeybooby · 05/12/2012 16:18

Whhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaat?

But it already was 'opt out' gahhhhh

If you had that much mail can you make it opt in, instead?

I wanna opt in!! I LOVED it!

VicarInaTutuDrankSantasSherry · 05/12/2012 16:14

who the actual would take the time to email in and say they didnt like it??? just dont use it if you dont like it!

but i liked it. i used it. SNOT FAIR!

marquesas · 05/12/2012 16:10

I used it loads too, I don't have a home button either (I need the num lock on all the time for work) and its really annoying to have to scroll around all the time.

Are the haters all using the mobile site/app - I can't see why anyone on a PC would hate it.
