I often get a message box that a script has stopped responding on this page. Stop Script or Continue?

My standard browsing machine is an ancient P2 180Mhz that also throws Flash errors with regularity - that may be relevant.

Try setting your "posts per page" to 10. (That is assuming it times out on a page of posts, and not on a thread list or on the forum list.)

Forgot this one: the "Log Out" link says "Log Out" in English.

It no longer says how many users are viewing a subforum.

I could do without the fading from page to page. I don't see an option to turn it off.. :eek:

That's the penalty for using IE. Try FireFox.

(Is it really that bad? We can adjust the timeout fade.)

Ah yes. The normal becomes abnormal.

We actually had numerous (hilarious) complaints about the obtuse wording on the old version so we decided to change it back to the default.

We do hope people don't log out. Every time you log out a random user is deleted.

That saves us a few database queries and we figured nobody cared. Is this a feature that makes sense? Convince us and it will be reinstated.

It's not bad, it's annoying, at first I thought that some malicious software has been installed...

Please get rid of the annoying fade as you go from page to page. It really sucks. Pages load noticably slower now as well. Upgrade?! Hmm!

The page transition has been tweaked a bit. Better?

Much better - there appears to be no fade now.
