a2k sucks

As you might recall, I do not welcome change. Still, it would be nice to post and use the back button to return to thread instead of tediously wading back through my own reply box. I recall the reason was to restrict the one line posts, but it hasn't made any difference, and it shouldn't.

Not sure I follow, could you explain?

I'll try. I make a post and want to return to the thread I posted on. The back button instead leads me back through the post I just made instead of directly back to the thread. I know, it's only a single extra click. I guess I'm easily annoyed.

When I post it takes me to the post I replied to, I don't have to go back to the topic. I haven't used the site much in a long time, so maybe I'm missing something.

Edit: I think I get what you mean, you miss the old "quick reply" and yeah something like that is definitely coming back.

Man, using this site is like using the internet a decade ago.

Leave it alone. It is one of the few sites that I can use without using a how to book.

Yes. As I mentioned, I don't welcome change.

Not in the cards, unfortunately. But we don't intend to make it harder to use. We intend to update it so that it can more easily be used on mobile etc for example.

The layout of the current is crap on my Windows phone.

FWIW, making the interface respond to mobile apps is probably wise and useful to many users with I-Pads and tablets etc. I'm sure that's pretty labor-intensive. Must be lots of tablets and I-Pads in the gene pool and coming on board.

Using A2K on my I-phone is of dubious value due to me due to the limited real-estate displayed. At least with 4G it's not slow. Though, I feel my eyes glaze over while trying to read a reply or thread, much less composing to reply to a thread. However, that's not the whole enchilada, I realize. Not a walk in the park -- rotating the iPhone to read horizontal line of text and read the comments. For me mobile means replying to PM or read-only.

I wouldn't have missed a frozen moment.

Get rid of down-voting, and get rid of tag wars.

Maybe so, but keep the up votes?

In honor of your post, i just voted it up.

It's a pain in the arse on my android, too. I'd welcome any changes that would make that easier.

Doge!

Which reminds me. I wish we had a lot more smileys to choose from. I'm stealing them from another forum.

on some browsers (ie. Chrome), you can hold down the back button and navigate back to a previous page without clicking thru the other pages...
