I am totale frustrated! I have been trying to use this New Board for 3 days and do not feel as if I am getting any where! Where can I get some ansewers to all the Question I and others are asking? I feel like I have been thrown into the deep end of the pool and left to sink or swim! Is any one, other than other frustrated users, out there? is there an instructional manual we can down load? Who made all the changes, not the group, there name! Tom, Dick, Harry, Mary, Sally? You may think all this makes perfict sence but we do not understand! We need a Map and detailed instruction! You will also need to supply a dictionary with accurat definations, remember some of us think sticky is what you get from playing with honey and Tag is a childrens game! I know I'm not super at the computer but with some instruction I'm sure I will be able to find what I want. As of right now All I can say is the forest is beautiful but I can't see the tree's!!

Hi Gramie bj,

We are all learning with you, what do you need help with and hopefully I can help you.

I feel the same way. It seems I keep going in circles and I can't find any of the new posts. I used to just read the unread topics and I knew what was new and what I had already read. Now if someone makes a comment on a post, it is on the top of the list. I used to love checking out what is for sale, and now you have to go to a different page to find them. Far too confusing, and I don't spend nearly as much time as I used to. I don't know who's idea this was, but it sure isn't better. I liked that you could watch a post and then get notified when someone commented. That way if there was a question that someone asked, and you wanted to know the answer too, you could be notified that someone might have an answer. I hope that the moderators are happy with their "new and improved" site, because from what I read, not too many are.

I can't even figure out to bookmark a post! I am frustrated.

Ok here is a short list
1 How do I get rid of all the OLD topis in the Whats New? Site? If I did not read them when they first came up 2+months ago I still do not want to read them.
2 Did we loose our bookmarks, if not where are they and how do I get there?
3 When doing a search for a post I just read today I entered the titel of the search and the board name of the poster it came back and said something about words to short and to comman for a search. It was the tital of the topic thread!
4 to follow any advice I recive about this board I have to copy and past to word on my computer because soon as I start to try what I have been told to try I leave this area and have a h--l of a time getting back to the post if I have to redo or double check the information I was given. Some times when I min. the board to check my word doc. and return to the board I have skipped to some place I have not been before! I thought at first it was my comp. so left board and tryed other sites. No skipping doing the same on other sites.

Thanks for trying to help this is just the tip of my iceburg! Just call me Titanic!

1. I don't know of an available feature at this time to help. sorry...
2. Bookmarks--got to Settings up by Logout, on the new page look to the left for My Subscriptions and you will find Bookmarks.
3. I haven't fiddled with search very much. sorry...
4. I do the same if something has multiple things that I have to do.

I think I figured this out. Go up to Thread tools, above the first post on the page, and click the little triangle to get the dropdown menu. Select Subscribe to this topic from the dropdown menu, then when you go to the next page click the triangle for the folder and choose Bookmarks. Then click Add Subscription.
