I'm getting sick of this discussion board changing every other day! As soon as I get used to the new format it changes!

The worst change is displaying the newest message first! You have to go to the bottom of the page to see what it's about, scroll up to the beginning of the next message, read it and scroll down then scroll up again! It's getting on my nerves!

Ok, show the newest topic or the topic with the latest replay but showing the newest message inside a topic is really annoying!

Change is usually good but the latest change is a bad mistake!

ha ha,nice, where do you read backwards? the latest reply is always at the bottom,guess i didn't understand what you said, oh well not enough time to get out of this box look around then jump back in again, if the latest letter was at the top you'd have to read backwards. ARGH I'm confusing myself, whats happening to me?

There will be a button for you to turn the messages so that you can read them from top to bottom or bottom to top (soon). The default will be latest message at the top, oldest message at the bottom.

The very first message in each topic will (soon) always stay at the top - er as well as at the bottom, so that you can always read the opening comment.

You'll be able to add new topics in all the OPEN forums.

All the consoles will appear only once, in the OPEN forums together with future of gaming and retro gaming.

Individual games will stay in the PRODUCT forums. You will not be able to add new topics for these (to avoid lots of single-message topics appearing) but some of the more popular subject such as WWF will have an OPEN forum too.

The idea of all this is to enable longer topics. It'll take a couple of days to shake out. Unfortunately many of the existing topic headings had to be lost in the revised programming.

Any comments?

Can you give a big black border to the recent reply, at the top? It would look nice, and would enable the less intelligent folk, like I, to see what was printed first, easier.

It can be any colour though. I don't mind. Really.
