Hollering in that I would like it to remain at the top. I use this to check for new posts and having to scroll each time I refresh is quite annoying :/

I agree, that is the natural place for it.

It is only an 'annoyance' once you have read all the posts. It takes up too much space (I'm using an older monitor)

Have no solutions for that. I believe many use that feature, I do, and weighing benefits against "cost", I would argue in favor of keeping it. If we removed it I am sure we would hear "What happened to the Newest Posts display.

Any idea when we will have the Thank You button again, so response posts are unnecessary?

Looks nice, on terminal based browsers, too. Not as "special" as before, but might be due to technological choices and constraints. Thanks for your work to all who made it possible!

We have no time frame for that. It depends on upstream developers.

it's quite similar, if not the same, as some other sites,
& yes - it will take a little getting used to - if you haven't used this forum version, elsewhere.
- it has some advantages, though, not least of all, to the Forum Admin.

Let's all be clear about the motivation for this upgrade:

1) what we were using was no longer supported by phpBB
2) security is greatly improved

Admin advantages had nothing to do with it.

I'm not in favour of removing it. It is a very useful feature. I had hoped it could be hidden by the user.

Also, thanks to everyone involved in setting up and designing the new forum. :number1:
