Why are you using Maiden names? Confusing to people wanting help.

Dear Genes Support Team

Are you all left handed????

You have moved the board names from along the top to the left hand side.

I feel all lopsided now!
:-((

I wouldn't call this an upgrade because key functionality has been lost.

1) Can't "view my threads"
2) Can't edit thread titles
3) Can't sort by poster
4) After viewing a thread on pages 2-100, you get redirected back to page 1 and not the page you were viewing.

They've changed my name to my maiden name! I haven't been a Turnbull for 43 years. Now the friends that I've made on the boards don't know that it's me!

What has happened to this website. I've been away for a couple of weeks and its all changed and I don't like it. Why is there a counter telling you that how many of 5000 characters you have left to use?

Dear members, We will be carrying out an upgrade of the message boards today. Unfortunately this means that we need to turn off the boards for a few hours. During this time you will not be able to access or add to posts. Thank you in advance for your patience. We will endeavor to keep down-time of the message boards to a minimum. Also all members will now see the ‘new look’ Genes Reunited when they come to the website. If you find the size of the text is too small or too large please see the Help Centre at the top of the site and search for ‘text too small’ or ‘text too large’. Genes Reunited
