Starting from the forum main page that lists all the forums.
I like to check NEW POSTS first. That takes you to all the new posts.
You can do NEW TOPICS or the other links on the site and forum if you wish.

If you go to a NEW POST you can either click the POST TITLE if you want to read it from the beginning or you can click the double arrow icon to view the last post in the thread.

After you read a post at the bottom of the thread or make a post at the bottom of a thread you have these links to choose from to leave the thread. I usually go back to NEW POST but if I want to stay in the forum I'm in just GO TO TOP then get back to the forum you are in. Or click FORUMS which is more direct.

If you're on your phone and at the last post of a thread click the dropdown GO TO and it opens the same links as the last pic above.

Navigation is easy once you get used to it.

Right now the forum has been slow during high traffic times but that will be fixed starting tomorrow.

You may find a better way to navigate for YOU but the above is what I do.

Open to questions and comments.

There are some things I'd like fixed (previously mentioned glitches), but all and all once ya get used to it, it is all good. Six months from now, nobody will be complaining and everybody will be happy:0064

Some complaining about trouble navigating but it's just new and we'll all get used to it.

Site loading speed has been terrible during high traffic periods but I should get that taken care of this week.

For every feature that is not available anymore there is a new one that's handy to take it's place.

I really didn't want to upgrade but my server needed upgraded and the old site would not have worked with the new server.

I've added content to the rest of the site, besides the forum, that should be helpful for newbies. Regs as well. Some people still like to read new content.

Glad it's working smoothly for you, Wayne.

Site is very fast this AM

Good to hear.

We had the tstorms over the weekend. Bad news for a lot of neighbors. 60mph winds did some damage, but we were lucky.

The site speed has been very slow on my phone, especially compared to other forums. I hope that will be fixed soon thanks

Today? Today has been smooth sailing but the prior 3-4 days was horrible. I suspect it to be slow tonight again but we'll see. Maybe they fixed it.

Slow as shit here.

Yep. Painfully slow. I'm gonna have to find a new host if they don't get this fixed soon. Just as soon as the traffic picks up, the site pretty much goes down.

site speed very good this AM:00hour:0074

I'm knocking on wood here. They know the reason but it can happen again at any time. Hopefully they get right on it if it happens again. They did last night.
