New forum? Really?

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.

  • I've been a member here for a while and remember the old forum. I didn't get to use it much really as I was ill at the time but I do remember its buggyness. So far this one seems ok though I do keep getting attacked by a CAPTCHA thing asking me to prove I am human. Lol.

    Something good though, I noticed just now replying to a different thread that the emoji bug is now finally gone.

    Little disappointed though to see we never got the Reaction buttons they previously mentioned to replace the vote up/down. I like the idea of having a button that means you can like, hug, love a post. Yesterday I wanted to hug a post but voting up would have looked like I was being horrible to her about her post.
    Perhaps something you will consider adding in the future  Slight smile
