I don't normally complain about changes

but I must say I do not like that you now stay at the bottom of the thread after you post. You used to be taken to the top, which was much better as the links are right there. This way I have to scroll up!

...takes me back to the bottom of the screen, as always. (I read top to bottom as well)

YetMoreTech · 25/09/2010 18:59

It can tell I have because it should have been "be" instead of "me". It's very clever.

BoysAreLikeDogs · 25/09/2010 18:59

SPB you can bookmark where you have got to in a thread, somehow

BUT

In order to do so you have to use MN New (bleeeeeee) so a New refusnik like me for eg can't illuminate further

arf arf arf at be/me difficulties

StealthPolarBear · 25/09/2010 19:00

ahh I am a luddite toO

ethelina · 25/09/2010 19:01

You can't bookmark on an iPhone [sulk]

YetMoreTech · 25/09/2010 19:06

Okay, completely serious non-inflammatory question...

What do you have against the Mumsnet New style? "I don't like change" and the like is a legitimate answer but I don't really get it. What do you do when the leaves fall off the trees? "Oh I don't go to the park in the autumn because I don't like change". What about day and night? They look pretty different.

I will donate £5 to charity for any person who says "I don't like change", then tries Mumsnet New for a full month and then comes back and says "I tried it and I am changing back because I don't like change". [Oh and I reserve the right to delete links to this post.]

StealthPolarBear · 25/09/2010 19:07

OK I will try it for a month, no ned to bribe me, I have been thinking about it for a while
When the seasons change, we winge - how have you missed that?? :o Haven't you seen the threads, particularly the ones about how the new CBeebies season song isn't as good as the last one?

MaMoTTaT · 25/09/2010 19:07

I don't like change.

What's bookmarking?

I don't even know if I'm using new or old

Confused
StealthPolarBear · 25/09/2010 19:09

ok am on MN new. it is scary

NoahAndTheWhale · 25/09/2010 19:11

Am staying with mumsnet Gimmer

BoysAreLikeDogs · 25/09/2010 19:12

I find it really really hard to use

too blue

the threads titles are all squished on the left

don't like the font

[folds arms]

addictedisgettingexcited · 25/09/2010 19:13

i dont like the link colours, blue for what you havent clicked and purple for what you have, the colours are too close to eachother.

YetMoreTech · 25/09/2010 19:13

MaMoTTaT, you're on Mumsnet New.

StealthPolarBear · 25/09/2010 19:13

It's threads Im On that puts me off - it's too suashed, things don't seem to be laid out nicely like they used to in the good old days
Look I am having to change my job for the first time since 2004, don't take away my comfort blanket too

BoysAreLikeDogs · 25/09/2010 19:15

oh how embarrassing, a crime against the apostrophe in my prev post

addictedisgettingexcited · 25/09/2010 19:15

i agree with threads i'm on too, it only shows about 6 of the last posts rather than the 18 or where you posted last. and its all rather squished together

MaMoTTaT · 25/09/2010 19:17

addicted - you need a new monitor I think - they look nothing like the same colour on mine Wink

ahh thanks YMT - I wonder when I switched

It all looks normal to me Grin

but I don't like ending up back at the top of a thread after I've posted - and I don't know what this bookmarking is,.

addictedisgettingexcited · 25/09/2010 19:18

i also dont like the replies and latest boxes on threads i'm on i dont understand what the numbers mean Confused

mamottat - maybe it is just me then!

StealthPolarBear · 25/09/2010 19:19

where BALD? Only one is in don't, and is correct, as far as i know
and I always write Threads Im On as that's how you have to type it in the URL :o

BoysAreLikeDogs · 25/09/2010 19:21

the threads titles are all squished on the left

should be

the threads' titles are all squished on the left

[angry at self]

StealthPolarBear · 25/09/2010 19:23

very true
I assumed an errant 's' and you were just saying "thread titles"
Glad I never pursued that proofreading career :o
