Oh sob. Xmas Sad

Am going to go and eat worms...

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!

FunnysInLaJardin · 05/12/2012 17:15

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

I loved my little floaty bar. Xmas SadXmas SadXmas Sad RIP floaty one.

BahSaidPaschaHumbug · 05/12/2012 17:35

GIVE IT BACK!

nextphase · 05/12/2012 17:56

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!

CuttedUpPear · 05/12/2012 18:22

Please can we have the floaty bar back, MN is not the same without it Xmas Sad

I keep pointing my pointy arrow thing top left and IT'S NOT THERE

LittleTownofBethleHelenMumsnet · 05/12/2012 18:52

OK OK. We'll see what we can do. Xmas Smile

But it won't be tonight, I'm afraid.

AnyaKnowIt · 05/12/2012 18:55

So do I tigerfeet

bradyismyfavouritewiseman · 05/12/2012 19:28

Thanks LittleTownofBethleHelenMumsnet

I agree with oaty and wankbadger.

I think the fact that it was opt out was enough. Don't like it? get rid.

Do like? keep it. Yay everyone is happy.

I am still not recovered from Brady getting kicked off pair of kings and THEN you steal my floaty bar.

NagooHoHoHo · 05/12/2012 19:35

What?

You got rid of a thing that people could hide it if they didn't like it?

And they couldn't be arsed to work out how to hide it so you got rid of it?

Hmm

PLease bring it back.

Thanks
FriedSprout · 05/12/2012 19:40

Please, please, pretty please can we have it back - ta Wine

RandallPinkFloyd · 05/12/2012 20:42

Well maybe I will whinge after all, seeing as thought I'm all nice to them and get no reply whatsoever [harrumph face]

Dear Floaty Bar,

Lots of love,

AnyaKnowIt · 05/12/2012 20:45

I'm still missing my floaty bar thingy Sad

AmberLeaf · 05/12/2012 21:01

Its good in a way, because Ive hardly been on Mumsnet at all since floaty bar left us. Got much more done today!

I don't get why those that didn't like it couldn't have just hidden it? Confused

VicarInaTutuDrankSantasSherry · 05/12/2012 21:06

oooooo, is HQ reconsidering the floaty bar? i am really missing floaty bar....its a pain in the arse on a laptop to keep scrolling

CharlotteCollinsislost · 05/12/2012 21:40

That's brilliant, though, having the Active l Threads I'm On l etc line at the bottom of the thread, too. (Has it always been there, and I've only just noticed it, or is that new, too?)

I'm sad the floaty bar's gone, but I'm guessing I'll get used to it. I'm with Tiger Feet about change!

CharlotteCollinsislost · 05/12/2012 21:42

If you bring it back, will you call it floaty bar rather than viewport bar?

SwedishEdith · 05/12/2012 21:49

Registering my disquiet also. I keep expecting to see it there but then... Sad
