We've just done a new code release and there are a few issuettes - we'll work through them.

Do refresh your pages though - that gets rid of most of the problems (though not all).

If you're using Firefox, you can zoom in using Ctrl and +, (or hold down Ctrl & use the scroll button on your mouse) to make the text bigger & get rid of the white areas on both sides - Firefox will remember this setting for MN without it affecting other sites.

The writing is still teeny for me too, and makes my eyes hurt a bit. The other stuff looks better though.

Militanttendancy · 30/10/2009 16:33

Using Firefox and the writing is teeny tiny! Still looks "funny", just not right at all.

I still don't get any new messages showing on Threads I'm Watching which basically makes it totally unusable. Hope you can get this fixed soon. I am sure I'm missing out on all kinds of things I would probably like to know about!

fiercebadrabbit · 30/10/2009 15:42

AOL browser/classic. Still too much white space.

Also still only showing 4 last messages in Threads I'm On, even if there have been far more since you last posted which is infuritating.

Is this a permanent change or can someone reassure us it's all in flux still? Thanks

I seem to have lost the option to stop watching threads now too. I don't want to hide them just not have them in the list of threads I'm watching.

ImSoNotTelling · 30/10/2009 14:48

Looks better to me... the text box with report poster etc is now in the right place.

And it doesn't go all weird when i type in the message box.

DadInsteadofMum · 30/10/2009 14:44

Just skimmed this and read responses (not made easier by the fact the you seem to have dropped the "(from MNHQ)" which made it simpler to spot responses), but can see no response to the FAQ:

WTF is going on in threads I am on - badly spaced and only the last five posts rather than a fuller history which on a very active thread makes is a lot easier to skim through.

IE7/classic

stakethroughtheheartofgold · 30/10/2009 14:10

ooh look threads are fixed (no more blueness) in mac/safari/classic/sober

thanks tech

eyetunes · 30/10/2009 14:08

mine is still all over the place, thread i'm on only has 4 and to type a post is tres difficile.

aristoBLACKcat · 30/10/2009 14:02

pages look ok now.......but i had to log in twice today

aarghhhhh

please ask Tech to put the newspaper down and help us, pleeaasssse

RustyBat · 30/10/2009 13:35

lankyalto - you need your at each end of every^ word* , not at each end of the phrase.

theyoungvisiter · 30/10/2009 13:05

still too much white space here.

Also still only showing 4 previous messages in Threads I'm On, even if there have been far more since you last posted.

Is this going to be a permanent change?

On the plus side, thread titles in Threads I'm On now going purple which is great as I missed this for the last few months.

Pinkjenny · 30/10/2009 12:38

Search still not working. When you click on a thread title after you have put in your keywords, it brings up Active Convos.

tvaerialmagpiebin · 30/10/2009 12:37

oh the italics and bold didn't work - hmm, I had the *s and ^s in the right places... is this a bug too?

tvaerialmagpiebin · 30/10/2009 12:36

In active convos, the thead title is still tied to the topic

e.g. _chat: why is this happening?

You can only click on that particular thread, not separately on _chat or on why is this happening

There is still the issue with the last post in a thread having no barrier between it and Add your message here

At the top of the page, there is duplication of the thread title being seems unnecessary.

TheDevilEatsBabies · 30/10/2009 12:27

yes!
as if by magic it's gone back to normal!!

thanks Tech!

cocolepew · 30/10/2009 12:16

Threads changed colour now.

Stayingscarygirl · 30/10/2009 12:15

'The purple problem...' - sounds like something you need to get some Special Cream for, from the doctor. [serious face emoticon]

Alibooobaandthe40phantoms · 30/10/2009 12:09

Yes I have the purple problem too now. I like it for thread titles, but not for the topic titles in the blue bar at the top. Can hardly read it and it makes my eyes go boggly

BertieBotts · 30/10/2009 11:56

Although "Talk : Site Stuff" is in purple as well on the blue banner at the top, could that stay white please because it makes it hard to read. And is it just me or is it a lighter purple than it was before?

Sorry if you are already aware of this!

BertieBotts · 30/10/2009 11:54

Ooh I have got purple visited links

fiercebadrabbit · 30/10/2009 11:38

Hmm, it's still a mess here - aol browser

Too much white space, threads I'm on and last 15 minutes oddly spaced out and search veeery messy

After the last debacle I have faith you'll sort it out but not quite sure why it's been messed with in the first place. Use your profits to have a holiday instead
