New forum? Really?

Debbie

So, we were told we would have a 'new' forum and were given surveys to provide feedback on what we would like in a new platform:

 Upgrading the online community to a new and much improved platform 

 Survey about upgrading the online community 

What we have is the old forum with some functions working again (not all, I note, as I took all my notifications off, then put some back on, but the ones I put back on don't work).

Is it just me that this is bothering?

What was the use of the survey and any communications really, if all we get is what we had before but less broken?

This is another area where a bit of communication would have been nice, at least telling us why we didn't actually get what we were told we would.

  • This is probably an alpha release the one they release to the public but it isn't the final polished version yet. I expect its gonna be a gradual transition upgrade where over time they will integrate these new features and fix the bugs. This to me seems like we’re on the alpha version where they are still testing it out, finding the bugs, what works, what doesn’t. Any surveys released are to gather data on what people want and if the platform is capable they can add these things at a later date.
