Sport section - Beta Site

[lector]

Give it a chance okay -

Why no announcement in The Editor's Blog?

Normally the purpose of a Beta Site is to road-test ..... and the Beta site has an opton to allow users to 'comment' on what they think + to identify faults etc ....

Once in the new Site ... how do you return to the rest of Answerbank?

[mrrobbo15]

it was good as it was.......no need to meddle with it......

[rugeleyboy]

its a step back in time with its layout and its no longer easy to read!!! might aswell join the bloody chatter bank as that gives me a headache aswell!!!

[lector]

I am in favour of giving it a try .... it's likely to be stayiong .... SO WHY NOT BE POSITIVE and try to improve it by reasonable comment without the sarcasm?

But the way it is structured at the moment as a Beta site is strange .... their is no means for users to point out the problems that they are having .... other than write sarcastic moans ... as the question above!

Normally there would be a direcrt link on a Beta site for emailing problems comments suggestions etc. ... aybe I am missing it!

I'm not at all interested in the "Sport" topic, but lets assume that the way it is now, since the sudden change, was the way it always was since the inception of Answer Bank, and then the "authorities" decided to change it to the format that you are used to (prior to the change): you would still complain!

[stewey]

When I used the pronoun "you" I was not referring to a particular individual: just people in general who are not happy with the change.

[rugeleyboy]

are you refering to me??? how is " a step back in time with its layout and its no longer easy to read" a sarcastic comment?

Following the changes in categories and her hope that they would be a useful tool, you said to the previous ABE on 18.10.06 �Ed,This question seems to be marketing bling, given so many statements of dislike and polite requests for change-back.

Specifically re Q&P ....

Good to know that you really appreciate our feedback .....

..... My suggestion is that you listen to the majority of negative comments re the changes in this sub-section. �

You wrote on 8.11.06 �Really confused, as to Where To Post Questions -
.�..

What about a Thesaurus to guide where to post - this Site is a nightmare for new users!

Not looking to get drawn into debate on the Why's and Wherefors' --> just looking for a simple English reply as to where to correctly post questions would be helpful.


On 15.2.07 it was � hi Djerba -

when you write a question ... and press 'submit' ... sometimes you are directed to a list of what the system deems are 'similar questions' ---- you are asked to check through this list to see if your question has already been asked --- you are given the option of either confirming your question or deleting.

if you look above ... I posted a question and the system gve me a load of mumble-jumble as to 'similar questions' ....

.... just isn't working! "

and you have the nerve to tell us to be positive???????????
