I agree with everyone.
Strangely, being above the age of 6, if the time of the last response was, say, 20.00 hours and it's now 22.00, I can work out that it was 2 hours ago!!
Even if it was 8pm and 10pm, I can still work it out!! I don't need to have it 'mouthed' at me!!

No one likes change and it does tend to make us all grumpy but it seems to me that they have not just installed one change but several.
1) a help clinic with a full waiting room
2) pages that turn around and go the other way and you have to reverse them to read them correctly.
3) names have been messed about with.
4) clock can't tell the time
5) some people have gold stars
6) and the big one we now have "My Thread Participation" instead of my threads.
7) and just recently a thread that had a perfectly good introduction for over a year now has had it's introduction changed to what a member posted a hour or so ago.

Dang me dang me they ought ta take a rope and hang me.

mcb, hi i dont like it either. i would like the time and date back besides the thread. saying 4 hours ago is so unhelpful isnt it?unless you are looking at a clock you dont have a clue when the last posting was.

i am all for improvements if they improve, but as of yet cant see any benefits at all, or is it just me being a grumpy old woman who doesnt like change?
