    Y'all **** and **** everytime the forum changes yet you keep coming back again and again !!!!!

    While I’ve neither ****ed or ****ed, I’d have to disagree. We lost several members after the last changeover and it seems as though we are losing some this time as well.

    Sounds kinda Darwinian when you put it that way -- apply a little selective pressure and select for the "fittest" to survive.
    Enough rounds of selection, and one ends up with the cyber-equivalent of cockroaches.

    Hey... wait a minute...

    Who ever changed this format, and can read must be, of Masochism and sadism are both about the enjoyment of pain. Masochism refers to the enjoyment of experiencing pain while sadism refers to the enjoyment of inflicting pain on someone else.

    For those interested in where (how) masochism got its name. :#
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopold_von_Sacher-Masoch
    (N.B. may not be suitable for all family members)
    The Wikipedia entry didnt really explain why that guy's name was used to come up the term Masochism. I was expecting a story one how he would pay peons in the olden days to whip him, or something to that effect. Perhaps I missed a link?

    He had an interesting relationship with a woman who was not his wife -- chronicled (at least sort of, it's said) in a book he wrote called Venus in Furs.

    Venus in Furs ?
    Hey, I think I saw a video of that online, where a stepmom goes shopping for a coat and gets stuck in a coat rack at Kmart and gets extracted by ..... Yeah, I think that was it. I'll double check.

    With this newer version of Vanilla, is it possible to prevent non-members (someone not logged in) from viewing the classified section and the Misc. Deals of the day thread? Those should be just for members, yet it shows up in a google search and can be viewed by everyone. It wasn't possible with Vanilla version 1, but was possible on the forum pre-Vanilla.

    I'm not sure if this is possible, but we can look into it. Thank you for the suggestion.

    On a positive note, and not sure if this has already been mentioned, but the 'Save Draft' function seems to work now.

    Towards the bottom of the comments page, just above and slightly to the right of the avatar pic are the hidden words "More Comments". Clicking on that area of void will allow you to advance to the next page of comments.

    THIS STILL REMAINS THE WORST FORMAT IN THE HISTORY OF THE INTERNET. ONE WOULD THINK SOMEONE WITH HALF A BRAIN AT SOUND UNITED WOULD REALIZE WHAT AN EMBARRASSMENT IT IS TO THEIR BRAND AND FIX/REPLACE IT.

    The site has gone to Hades. Not sure if it is redeemable.

    Thank you Jesse! How is anyone expected to find the "invisible" More Comments button/tab at the bottom of the page. I followed your instructions and still had to move the cursor around to find it. Just nuts!

    It's even worse on mobile since there's no mouse curser to track around.
    It's TERRIBLE!!!

    Reading some of your posts this morning I have to wonder...........what on earth happened to you??? You seemed like such a great guy when I stopped and had coffee and pizza at your home about 10 years ago.

    Found out another problem with this format. I was wondering what happened to the "Latest Post" column. Apparently you have only two choices when you do CTRL/+ or - to adjust the size of your screen. This one that is fine if your monitor is a foot from your face but at least it doesn't have that retarded floating +

    I've notice the + or similar bubble like it for comments and such has been incorporated into just about every website I visit. Very annoying for sure!!

    I use to come online and read unread post then after reading them I would mark all read. Now I have to go to everyone and do it individually. Glad I go to other sites that let you do it. Just 1 site being bad I can deal with it. NO WAY I would do this site mobile format.
