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!

We'll open a shop in Maidstone just for you. Nearly opened one in Chatham once.

Re-posting my earlier message

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 subjects 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?

Current vacancies include Super Sales Job. I'll admit, my twin is in charge of personnel. http://1press.co.uk/vacancies.php

Too far away? Where's that?

anyway, i was thinking about fruit in games, don't know why i don't start a new topic, but for some reason I don't think it'll be popular.
Yeah anyway, they have bananas in the DK games, and apples in Yoshi games, sorry i don't know what fruit are in PSX games, i can only think of carrots in jumpin jack flash, when i think of that I cry.
