Hi, I notice some of us don't have our "friends" list like we used to, but others do. And I see that I'm still on other's lists, so what is the deal?
Also, is there a way to view "my content" as it was called on the old forums? Or is subscribing our only option?
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi and thank you for the question. From the 'F11 Touring Discussion' view note the 'Display Options' on the lower left of the page. The default for displaying threads is 100 days. Under the 'From the' option select 'Beginning' from the drop down menu. All 48 threads will be displayed. I changed the default to 'Show All Threads'.

Left click on your screen name and select 'Public Profile'. From the drop down menu select 'Find More Posts by pradden'. You can also follow the link 'View Public Profile' then the 'Statistics' tab. That will also allow you to view all threads started by you. Friends are also viewed from the Public Profile. I hope this helps!

Hi as well, Patrick,
I am unsure why your friends list did not cross over the transition with everything else. I will ask our tech guys if there is anything we can do, but I'm unsure that we can recover something so specific to one user or not. I apologize for this. I can definitely look into the old site, and let you know exactly who was on your friends list so that you can re-add them if you'd like. Please let me know.
cheers,
robb

Yeah it is coming up as empty(no friends) but if I go to someone who I know I was friends with and look at their friends, there I am.
I also noticed some other members friends lists are empty as well...

Strange behavior
I've noticed since you did the upgrade that if I change the computer I access the site with, I have to log in again. The "Save setting" option seems to get forgotten.
Also, tonight I noticed that the back button doesn't work. I have to reselect the Forums tab in order to read a new post. I realize that that's really a browser issue, but it's not occurring on other sites.
Finally, an annoyance of vBulletin is occurring on this forum that never occurred before. If you post more than one thread in a short amount of time, you get a message that "This is a duplicate of a posting you made in the last five minutes." It goes away, but it's an annoyance. I've also seen it on other vBulletin forums.
Add one more... What's this "This forum requires that you wait 60 seconds between postings."? It's a REAL PAIN if you're editing a post you just submitted!

Hi and thank you for the feedback!
Each computer caches cookies separately so having to login on a different device is expected. You should not have to re-login on the same computer if the 'Remember Me' is checked. I'll revise the post flood settings which will reduce the wait time. Finally, what browser are using that blocks the back button? Thanks.
Bob..
Edit: I set the time between posts to 25 seconds.
