Your right Peter I don't like that date format either..............

And I hope I've now changed it

Ok Malcolm you want my opinion why was we not told my PC just said out of order if it works dont meddle with it but i suppose i will sort it?

Hi Pykey. This just brings us up to date with some extra features and believe me, for Cargo and me it means a whole lot less hassle with spammers.. NONE so far. That's good for all of you, and within a week or so, you'll be so used to it...
Check the new photo section too.

I had the exact same problem as you. I only discovered the new style forum because I clicked on an alternative link to what I believed would be the old forum and of course I found this version.
I'm still feeling my way round but as Helen says this new forum is a lot easier for her and I to use.
You'll soon get used to it and and soon enough you'll be an expert again

"soon enough you'll be an expert again" - remember the definition of an expert, Cargo - an "Ex" is has-been, and a "spert" is a drip under pressure!

I have to agree with the "'aint broke" maxim, hey ho.
As a retired IT Manager, I should know better i Know.
To me this is like no 2-strokes!
End of grumpy old man rant

PS Not been well you know!

Be careful MV on certain forums ranters get zapped.

And Peter there are no experts in this world but lots of people who think they are

My mail account keeps blocking emails from this august forum since the change of style, telling me they may be dangerous!
Contentious? - sometimes, amusing? - mostly, but dangerous?

Peter your e mail address is not hidden from me (thats one of my admin perks) and I know there is a means of telling you e-mail account that mail from certain domains is "safe"
You'll need to go to your email account and reset it so that mail from TTwebsite is considered safe.

Sorry guys its my fault that, I have added an automatic redirect so anyone going to the old forum, gets automatically directed to the new one.

Cheers

Hey why i am not a senior member as i have my bus pass and visited 40+ TT plus loads of S100 and MGP'S and i have only 3 stars and marshalled for years

I'll misuse a catch phrase for you Pykey

Posts make stars

The more posts you make the more stars you get

Thats still not working or at least it didn't for me but that might have been my favorite going into the general forum but I have found you all again now

Looks good, more in line to what I use on a few other wbe boards so will get the hang of it fairly quickly I suspect, will have to add my normal avatar once I find it again

I thought something was seriously amiss till i posted question on iomtt.com. & was told about site update.

Glad to be of service veefour

Thank goodness for that, I thought everyone had disappeared to I dont know where.
Now found you and working and have to complement you all on what I think is a notable improvement. (although was quite happy with the old one).
Much easier to see (for us older one's) and every credit for the work you have put in. I think the site will go from strength to strength so a big well done to all responsible and thanks.

I seem to be getting the hang now and admin i do appeciate your efforts, for a day or two i thought i was barred?

Nah, we wouldn't do that to you, Pykey. Just don't you go losing that password!
