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).

throckenholt does yours look more or less the same as before?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 28/10/2009 19:35

You are all missing the important point. There is no Biscuit yet.
hmpffffffff.

theDeadPirateRoberts · 28/10/2009 19:35

Parts of it are nice - I like being able to see full poster names, but I'm on MN new and firefox, and it's not highlighting which threads I've already opened.

popsycal · 28/10/2009 19:36

firefoxa and classic
all a bit weird but cant put my finger onwhy and how.....

ChutesTooNarrow · 28/10/2009 19:36

MN classic / Opera browser. Threads that have more than one page have a stray '1' above the 'This is page blah of blah...'

Apart from that I quite like it.

morningpaper · 28/10/2009 19:37

BIGTECH wtf are you fiddling with now boy

everything is tittifered

tell me if you want some screen shots (Firefox with classic here too)

GooberIsLockedInTheBootOfMyCar · 28/10/2009 19:38

I don't like it.

I am pouting.

BobbingForPeachys · 28/10/2009 19:39

That was a funny blip, reminded me of the college chat system back in 1991 when only a few of us even knew how to use the thing.... great memories...

NorktasticNinja · 28/10/2009 19:42

Firefox and MN new (on Mac OS Leopard if that makes a difference).

Different and smaller (?) font (I like it)
Rollover pop-ups of poster names that fade out as you move the mouse off the name
Yellow warning type triangle under first letter of warnings at the top of topics (for example AIBU)

Saltire · 28/10/2009 19:43

I am on MN new, not old style. I am still getting a huge white space where the adverts are on the right hand side of the page, my active convos, or whichever thread I'm on, doesn't start until I scroll to the end of the adverts, almost halfway down the apge. it's putting me off and is annoying!

RustyBat · 28/10/2009 19:43

Tabs are back for Discussions of the day/Most Active on Active Convos/I'm On, but not on the threads themselves.

BexieID · 28/10/2009 19:45

Glad it's MN. Did think Tom had done something to the computer again

BiteOfFun · 28/10/2009 19:45

It is absolutely horrible, I could just cry! And why can't we see the last posters' names on Active Convos? That is too good a feature to just dump.

Waaaaaawaaaaaawaaaaaa

Saltire · 28/10/2009 19:48

The scrolling down thing is annoying me. I ahve to go past
mumnet talk box with convos of the day, and advert for Blossom, mumsnet latest box, and advert for Boden, and advert ofr MN tv and, Tip fo teh Day,Quote of the Week etc, all of which are down teh right hand side of screen, with a big white space where the convos used to be, then when I scroll down past the adverts listed, I get to active convos/open threads etc

EccentricaGallumbats · 28/10/2009 19:50

How very queer.
tis the colours all mucked up for me. Some names in blue, some in black. Weirdy changed black writing too. and weirdy purple boxes for 'preview' and 'post'
oh and classic MN no idea what browser.

cocolepew · 28/10/2009 19:51

It's well fucked.

RustyBat · 28/10/2009 19:54

Just went back to Classic for a quick look - now I remember why I changed! New is much better (and you do get people's names on Active Convos)

hormonstersnomore · 28/10/2009 19:55

Don't like it!

lou33 · 28/10/2009 19:55

i agree with bof about the last posters name, that needs to come back

Lilyloooohhhh · 28/10/2009 19:57

Is this a ploy to get us 'classic users' to go to the 'new side'

DevilsEnticeMadness · 28/10/2009 20:01

Its no better with the new side.

The warning symbol is under the writing at the top of the page on health topics plus what are these stray 2's and 3's above the "This is page X of Y"? And why if First/previous/next/and last suddenly so big? Is this just an optical illusion due to the stray numbers?

GentleOtter · 28/10/2009 20:01

Firefox

Classic Mn

I'm more confused than usual.

PrettyCandles · 28/10/2009 20:03

I don't like this at all! What are you doing to Threads I'm On? It's a mess, all sprawled out, and with only the first few messages displayed for each thread.

Grump grump grump. Please repair!

Also don't like the way the Add message Report Contact poster is displaying below the bar for each message, and affecting the wraparound for the text of the message.

I'm - obviously! - a MNClassic user, and my browser is something antediluvian like IE6.

elvislives · 28/10/2009 20:03

Firefox

Classic

Only it's not. It's horrible. I just started a new thread trying to add this message. Please can we have MN back.

RustyBat · 28/10/2009 20:06

I haven't got any of that on New, DEM, except the bit about the warning icon -it needs a bit more space. (I'm on Firefox)
