Now that is a great loss! But you can still "report" yourself.-)

A true honor system that ala West Point.

Has it been commented on that the forum seems to be a little more responsive? That seems to be the case here.

And you can have 5 thanks on a post: I don't know what the limit (if any) is, but it's not 4.

Yes, it is here too. Very nice.

As Adrian suggested, could it be an add on or a setting in FF?

i don't think it's a Firefox issue as i am seeing the same issue in Konquerer 3.5.

it mostly appears from the originating post in each thread where sentences are longer then the width of the text box. apparently, what ever controls the line length of each sentence is not working.

Can you give me a screen shot of a post you see exhibiting this. Are there images involved, code tags, other tags? I do not see it.

Do not know. I will need to research.

That would be a nice feature (hover/pop-up) to see added ...if it was doable
Found this one Topic Preview (for versions 3.0.6~3.0.8 ) http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/topic_preview/
...which claims to use no added resources (no db queries etc) and uses a web browser's inbuilt textual tooltip capability.

Thank You for the recent topics feature; it's very nice. Also thank you for the explanations for the change. I missed the announcement and the test forum and after seeing the reasons I have to wholeheartedly agree. I get the feel today that it will continue to grow on me like Dolphin and Plasma has. Apologies for my early complaints; I have to skulk away and eat some humble pie now.... Great work folks!, Jerry

Rome wasn't built in a day. Plenty of time to tweak things. I've been amazed at the speed of the changeover moving from planning to implementation as fast as it has.
