UNOFFICIAL THREAD TO MAKE COMMENTS ABOUT NOT-SO-NEW CC SITE

Well, we were advised a few days ago that the “Official Thread to Report Problems…” is no longer the appropriate place to report problems with the new site. And now it’s been closed, so that’s the end of that.

But I miss the camaraderie. the security of knowing that I shouldn’t take it personally when the system logs me out unexpectedly, the reassurance of others that, yes, indeed, it’s not my imagination that posts are more difficult to read against a glaring white background . . and, of course, the ongoing saga of @romanigypsyeyes and her “magical” mod powers!

So, with the understanding that this thread is not an appropriate forum for reporting new issues, does anyone want to join me in offering each other moral support while we watch the “new and improved” CC gradually take shape?

I feel so honored to have a saga!

<em>bows</em>

I shall join!

No comment!

Bookmarked. Our new temporary home for the refugees.

This will be a handy new thread to bookmark–not only for the camaraderie but also as a roundabout way of navigating to the forum it’s in. Since, of course, we can’t bookmark the forum itself. ;:wink:

Yes, yes, yes! One of our very own who has been (magically) elevated to mod status!

I always wanted to be a Witch!

I can’t believe the other thread got closed. Feels like a dictatorship of sorts somehow. Definitely not a democracy

And who here believes it’s a coincidence that the only gypsy among us is the one with magical powers? :wink:

As for dictatorship vs. democracy . . . well, in the interest of diplomacy, I will [decline to comment](<a href=“http://www.unionbusting101.com/FEAR.html][color=”>http://www.unionbusting101.com/FEAR.html).

^ For all of our useless smileys, why isn’t there one for rimshot?

In place of a rimshot one, I will respond to that with ones I can’t think of any other context to use them in… ever: ~:> >-) :O)

What happened to the threads for Colleges and Universities - alphabetical?

[Alphabetic</a> List of Colleges](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/alphabetic-list-colleges/][b]Alphabetic”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/alphabetic-list-colleges/)

Well, yes, @dodgersmom, I could see that. However, when I click on a letter, say, “A,” it says “no discussions found.” I don’t even get a list of colleges when I click on the link for Alphabetical List of Colleges.

You don’t see a list of alphabetical colleges when you click on Dodger’s link?

AFAIK, there has never been discussions on those pages. It’s only on individual college pages.

When I click on the link above, I get a complete list of tons of colleges…in alphabetical order.

If I click on any college, I’m directed to the discussions about THAT college.

OK, I figured this out. I went back through all the various links, including dodgersmom, and got nothing. But then I noticed there is a “Subtopics” link with a carat after it. When I clicked on that, all the colleges showed up. Evidently you can hide or reveal the list by clicking on that subtopics link, and I must have done that somehow (although I don’t know how/why I would have done that)?? I don’t know why there is this option since why would you want to hide the whole list? Then there is just a blank page. If you were going to the Alphabetical List of colleges, presumably you would want to see the list. :wink: Oh well, ours is not to wonder why . . .

LOL well I’m glad you got that figured out.

Yes… seems very useful to be able to hide the entire page :(|)

I wish posts were numbered, like they used to be. It was an easy way to reference something someone had said in a particular thread, esp if the thread is several pages long, etc.

I agree about the numbering of posts - not having those numbers is a PITA!

I say we do something about it . . .

Let’s wait for a really windy day, all go outside together, face the wind, and spit!

. . . or you could, as requested by TPTB, start a new thread in this forum and mention the problem.

Number one thing that keeps me from posting more. CC - you would get a LOT more page views from me if this feature could be reinstated.
