NO it hasn't because even if I could play the arcade I still am PO'd with the rest of itOk....the new format has redeemed itself with the arcade
He knows smoking is dangerous!!!
What do you not like? Don't know if it has to do with how the mobile works, in which case I'm totally lost on that, or if you just don't like the changes etc. I'm findin most things are much easier once I learn how to do em. Some things aren't, but hopefully they'll fix those things

Okes, so I got the Arcade concept....so how do you move and shoot, "D" all of the above?
Arrow keys to move/rotate space bar to shoot
There is not a "delete" option ... instead it says "leave conversation"
That's their version of delete ... also once you click "leave conversation", it give's you another option of making it permanent, or being notified if that person try's to contact you again.
True, it's not as "user friendly", and requires more playing around to do the same job, but that's the way everything is getting now days .... or I'm just getting too old
Some things aren't as user friendly, but I think some things are much more user friendly.
No its far from user friendly it makes no difference mobile or base station the search for my threads I post on is all but screwed I do one and crap from years ago pops up on the top instead of most current like it used to heck somethings show up that Ive never seen before This is really not good or easy to use and the new layout is really hard on the eyes its sure not very nice to look at its kinda like the old way on tapatalk which I refused to use
yeah I don't care for all the white, but they're working on that.
Dunno if it will help, but the way that I keep up with the threads I post on, is to open the watched threads in one tab. I have it set at the top to "unread watched threads" When I want to open a thread, I right click and say open in new tab. This is what I always did with subbed threads on the old one. So I have each thread open in a different tab. then I just click refresh on the watched threads tab, and ones that have new posts will pop to the top, I can then go click on that thread tab and refresh it to see the new posts. It's essentially how I did it under the old system. Is that what you're talkin about or something else? also, we could get a few of us together to do a vid chat if you wanted, cuz that made it much easier for me the day it first came up. A friend and I figured it out together.
I do like that when I open a thread like the lounge, it automatically takes me to the first unread post. Before I had to click on that after I opened the thread.
Darrel - I used the 'Watched Threads' option to get to Reoville and the HHV Army.
And I followed Jim's Suggestion
to limit the crap that comes in via Alerts.
Or, in other words, make this clusterf**k work the way you want it to, and it becomes not quite so nauseous

Pretty much what Darrel said. Everything changes like the PayPal screen changed and I hated it but got use to it (plus they give you the option to use the old format. My Hotmail changed and I hated it but got use to it. I guess I'll get use to this too....but still hate it.
I am posting this little message in two places.
Later today, if I get enough nerve up....I am going to redo my whole computer from scratch. So if I don't get back on for a while, you will know what happened. I never had trouble doing this in the past. I got this computer with Win8 loaded on it. Then it upgraded to 8.1....that is when the proverbial "stuff" hit the fan. With the help of the tech (thank goodness it was in warranty at that time) the computer was fixed. But now, who knows what will happen. It is a long story. Just be advised, you may not hear from me for a while, if things go badly. If things go badly, I am going to try to go to Linux, instead of messing with Microsoft again. I am not sure what maker of Linux I will use. I am very leery of doing this redo, but I am let with no choice, sadly.

oh wow KK, sorry you're having issues. hope it all goes well for ya, and thanks for letting us know. I know Scott (sterno) uses ubuntu and likes it. Might wanna talk to him when he comes on
Thanks Deb. I might use Ubuntu, OpenSuse, Mandriva, or Linux Mint. I wish I knew someone who used this stuff. I have had it to my eyebrows with Microsoft since they released Win8/8.1.
Dunno if scott used the other ones or not, but I know he uses Ubuntu.
I'm using windows 7, so can't help ya!

lol well, it's a borrowed laptop, but I'm just glad I have something to get online with. I didn't for a long time. I missed everyone so much, and especially hated not being here before a dear porcher left this world for the next. so, I'm glad I've got what I've got.Windows , oh sorry to read that Deb
I don't know anything about Linux. I tried it back when it was new, a Red Hat version. It was way over my head back in those days. But now I hear it is much more user friendly.
not sure, I didn't go to the FP much back then, I was referring to our founder, Tx. I think he went to the FP though, just not sure
