I really hate to be negative because I'm usually a very positive person and look for the good things. But, I've now been on the QB, off and on, since the change over. Actually, I've spent hours trying to navigate, find what's new and improved and re-locate all my favorite haunts! This morning I spent about 2 hours just trying to read new topics and posts. Finally, I gave up trying to find the new topics with all the old topics mixed in. I figured my frustration would end as I learn to navigate but not so. I've located the VSMS and can get to it pretty quickly. I've found the For Sale and the Thrift Store categories but can't figure how why there are 2 of them. If I lose my place, I can't figure out how to get back where I came from (yes, I know this sentence isn't grammatically correct LOL) and I usually use the backspace in my browser which means going back 3 or 4 pages.
I LOVED the old QB. Many days I don't feel well and I would browse the QB while resting. Now it only adds to my stress. I really really miss the old QB. I'm not computer illiterate and have been using computers for many years. But right now, I'm just choosing to go to the VSMS categories and stay up to date there. I really miss my new friends whom I have met and the great inspiration I've received. I really don't want to lose contact with them but it's just too frustrating.
Right now, as I type this Quick Reply, the screen keeps jumping back to the top of the Quick Reply. I have to keep scrolling down to continue my post.
I'm viewing the QB on 2 different computers, one with Windows XP with IE and one with Windows 7 with Firefox so I know the issues can't be browser errors.
I don't think Patrice or our other great mods are responsible in any way. Sometimes the Boss just says "we're going to do this" and that is the way it is. BUT, as VP of a company before I had to retire, I would probably make the decision to backtrack a little and gradually make the changes. This all or nothing just doesn't seem to satisfy the end users! JMHO
