    Just a minor thing but is it possible to have the default main page set to show my forums when signed in. It is currently showing latest posts.

    Another one! When I click on a thread it brings me to the top of the last page viewed as opposed to the last post I have read which the proper Touch site used to do so I have to scroll down and try to remember what time I had viewed the thread previously.

    Just bookmark /myforums instead of /?

    Just a suggestion-


    When you click on the link in the upper right that brings you to your account page, PMs will usually say "0". For registered users as opposed to subscribers, PM storage is limited to 500. Is there any way the code could be re-written to display how many PMs you have stored out of 500 in perhaps the format (473/500), something like that, instead of just "0". It'll always be "0" or "1", maybe"2" otherwise, when it could be made a whole lot more useful.

    Sorry guys but the revamp is horrible. It reminds me of when Google changed gmail.

    Maybe I am missing something but why change a perfectly good site? What specific improvements does it bring?

    Good suggestions like putting a second "previous/next" button at the top of the page have been ignored.

    It also seems to be very unstable. I am randomly getting pages that don't load properly.

    There is so much wasted space at the top of the page when space is at a premium on phone screens.

    /browse should now contain a list of your followed forums at the top before the a-z and category listing.

    *EDIT* next touch update, auto ban all thunder stealers.

    Not sure if it has been mentioned already, but on iOs the my forums tab displays the time of the post "Bugs Report New Touch Site, El Guapo! 5 mins ago", while the same thread under the my threads tab displays the above except without the time since the post was made.

    Thanks for that, we'll look into it.

    Sorry, no bugs to report as of yet.
    But just wanted to say, possibly against some of the posts on this thread,
    Great job guys, Looks a lot slicker and responds a lot faster on my device.
    I would only generally use if for browsing subbed threads and the off replies mind.

    Any chance of better page navigation choices. I have just been on a page where the choice was pages 1&2 or page 652!

    There is lots of space so how about a option to type in a page number.

    When clicking into a thread I've never visited before I'm brought to the newest post rather than the first or first unread post.

    Is this by design?

    I really like it, well done, just one thing.

    When I'm on my followed thread page I can see the last poster but not when they last posted.

    In the my threads section.....same as mentioned above AND if you press back after going into a thread it brings you to last webpage opened before Boards NOT the my threads home page . AWFUL ANNOYING.
    Also another small one. When a shortcut is created on home screen it no lingers has the nice boards icon it uses a small screen shot of the my threads page.
    Still can't understand why it was changed.
    It's now slower and extremely frustrating to use

    Clicking on the link in an email notification takes me to the first page of the thread & not to the relevant post. I then have to scroll down & select the last page.

    Also some of the buttons such as page numbers & my profile are very unresponsive & can take several clicks to work.

    I have to echo a previous poster in that the new site feels very slow compared to the old one.

    As mentioned already, any chance that a subscribed forums link can be added to the homepage? Cheers.

    Is this about the times not showing for the last post?

    I can't do a print screen bit I still can't see the time someone last posted.

    I've narrowed down this "border behaviour" I call it, to when you're on any forum's main page, you get the white border when you go off the page. When you're in the thread and you go off the page, you get a black border.

    Hope this helps narrow something down as it's rather frustrating.

    One small thing I've noticed is that

    isn't displaying properly in forums. It's grand in the thread itself or on the front page but not in the forum.

    Another one re: the border. Sometimes when I move onto the next page of a thread it transports me to the middle of the border of the next page. It takes me to15 or 20 hard swipes to get me back to the text depending how far into hyperspace it has sent me.
