I've figured out the new "improved" board!

I'd forgotten all about how Dr. Harley wanted to do some research. But, once you remember that he is interested in research, and is a practicing psychologist, the new board makes sense.

This forum is designed as a scientific experiment. It measures persistence, or in layman's terms, willingness to beat a dead horse. It could probably also point out Obsessive Compulsive Disorder as well.

Only those who are highly persistent will brave the boards for more than a few tries. For evidence, look at the dramatic drop in posts! The data sugggests that those who have been here a while, and still actively post, make up the majority. Of course, many of us, not only persist in face of MB's obstacles, but we persist in spite of the obstacles our spouses throw in our path.

I had never thought about it that way but it sure sheds another view on the how's and why's of the new boards.

But it should not be that hard. I've used UBB Threads for over 5 years now and I can't recall any conversion causing this much trouble and some of the sites very quite busy and quite large. Sure, the users hated it that the software changed but most of them adapted quite well.

That does not seem to be the case here. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Take my word for it. There are problems. And we are having difficulty getting them worked out. We had to upgrade our old forum software in order to be able to convert to UBBThreads, so it isn't just a simple conversion.

Some suggestions have been posted at the top of the forums, so take a look and see if any of them might help you.

Please read or post problems about the new software on the Feedback/Technical Problems forum. That is where I'll be looking for your issues.

Tempest, I was trying to make light of the situation. Sorry if my post rubbed the wrong way.
