This format is FAR better than the old school boardhost format.

Really liking this board. Just been to the “old place” and to see the sniping and bitching is really disappointing. Quite happy to trial this and looks good so far.

Just seen. I was trying on the mobile view but now found it on desktop view. This will definitely camouflage nicely Into the rest of my Web pages when I’m supposed to be working Don’t let Canadians know |

Fair enough. You might not be able to answer with being mobile-only, but is there a way for the board to remember where you were up to, in the sense of when you click the thread title it takes you to the page (or even post) you'd last seen? Basically to the oldest 'new' post in the thread? Click the little New icon next to the thread title, that’ll take you to where you last saw. Can't believe I didn't try that. Nice one. |

Cant bebotehred reading all the above. Is there a way to get more messages on the screen? Have turned off avatars, but there is still a lot of wasted screen real estate with the big boxes, for a one line post.

Can increase the number of messages on each page of a thread. Think it’s currently 10 or 15. Have to account for loading times if we do too many that contain videos, images etc. Don’t mind pushing it a touch more but we don’t want 50 per page.

Agree about the colour scheme, should be County blue! & while we're at it ditch the yellow board name & change to it Blue board, not that i'm trying to rile the purists or anything! but we're County & blue is our colour not yellow!  Click work safe in your profile and it turns blue! Brilliant that TRE, Thanks!  |

Thanks for helping me get on. I'm sure we'll all get used to this format eventually. I did like the collapsing threads feature on the old board last week.

I like this board.
Is there a way to have more post per page before it bumps onto the next one? Would be my only criticism of the format really. On big threads it can be a pain to click through the tabs. EDIT: have read the posts above about this. Nice one. Think maybe 20 per page would be better?
On some other boards, where someone has quote-replied to a previous thread, there's a facility where if you click the quote, it takes you back to the original post. Can this board do that?
I'd also echo getting rid of the GT Law thing. It was a cultural nod in 2013. Now I think I'd rather we just forget that period altogether.

Have changed the posts to 20 per page. Any more than that and I think we tip the balance due to too much scrolling/loading times. Noted about the sponsors thing. That's a bit more involved to change those but can look at it later. Any suggestions as to alternative tiers we could use? |

I like the sponsors being used and I think Scandia works as the first tier. While they weren’t the best times when they were our sponsors they were far from the worst either, in hindsight.
Robbie’s, Sovereign, Cobra, Pioneer, Sandringham, RESB, ESEM, Just Search are all viable options. In no particular order.
GTLaw is the only ex shirt sponsor of ours that leaves a really sour taste to me, given the context.

That's why we had it as the bottom rung. It's deliberately shit.

Could it be ex players rather than sponsors? Relatively inoffensive if you’re a Ludovic Dje/Joe Dolan to start with and a Kevin Francis/Danny Bergara at the top end, and shouldn’t ought to leave a sour taste like the GT Law thing does.
