Al, you are correct in that "Forum Contributions in the Past 12/24/48 Hours," old threads having recent posts ARE being included.
It's just that many of those threads included active threads.

As I look at the forum today it seems to be working properly. Perhaps, your comments from earlier in this thread alerted Audiogon to make this update.

 Anyway, I don't know who to thank for this fix, but well done.

I like it, but there seems to be a few bugs in it that need to be ironed out.

1:Like the "quoting" which is  hard to use and can go nutz when trying to copy and paste underneath this quote.

2:And when you've copied and pasted then written something underneath then tried to past something else as well, it only pastes the previous copy not the new one you want to paste.

3:And the "Insert URL" can sometimes play up depending on where and when your trying to do it.


Cheers George

I like it, as the old format was like using Windows 3.0.

But its a bit too "vertical". With wide aspect screens and monitors, why don't they spread the text out horizontally more? Then there is less scrolling to see responses. And I hope this format is not designed to place a myriad of "dancing bears" automated adds in the margins. Those drive me nuts.

Well, call me a complainer, but there are still duplicate threads in
"New Discussions in the past 48 hours" and "Forum contributions in the past 48 hours." It takes up real estate which can be used for older threads.

IMO, "Forum contributions in the past 48 hours" is a poor concept. There should be a section for threads that are OLDER than 48 hours as there was in the old format. Yes, this section contains older threads, but it also gets filled with current threads (as I write this at 3AM there are many).

It wouldn't be too difficult to look at the old format and copy that.
OK, I'm done.
More to discover
