I'm here in the new forum but it doesn't feel like home yet. Seems unfamiliar, empty and devoid of personality. Anyone else feel this way? How do we spice it up and get her going again? Here are a few issues I have:

1) Too many main topics. I liked the last grouping. Simple. Now I have a hard time selecting where they go. Is peak oil political or environmental. lol

2) The spell checker requires me to download some software. Did anyone check this out to see if it has spyware?

3) After you log in you don't get a "today's posts" selection button.

4) Of course no more non-member posts.

Anyway, It's kind of like a freshly painted room. Smells nice but feels different. I'm sure I'll be right at home the next time someone attacks solar power again.

Do you think this site is filtered? I don't see that....

Other than not being able to post as a "Guest", I do not think Lyle is spending his days moderating the postings!

The main difference I see is what Texas said - so many main threads.

And I really liked the feature of seeing the new postings at the bottom of the screen on the old forum. You did not have to look through each main thread to see what has been posted since your last visit.

It is just different. Actually, this is exactly like the Chrysler Crossfire forum.
