That certainly rates a look or two, even if nothing new goes on there. Thanks for the heads-up!

Oh. It seems to suffer from that common condition of not being developed with “valuable (name removed by moderator)ut” from the end users. Nothing unusual there, unfortunately. My web experience is mostly with WebMagic and vBulletin forums - I modded vBulletin for years.

I’ve heard this claim before and a had go at researching the facts. But I found that most of those threads were started as TLM or traditionalist ways are better/more reverent/pious than Novus Ordo. It is rare to find a thread begun on the premise that the Ordinary Mass should be the only Mass and the TLM is inferior.

I do like how there’s not threads with 20, 40, 60+ individual pages that you have to flip through and overall the new format is smoother and more convenient. The downside is the free speech issue.

I’ve never actually seen such a thread before.

:raising_hand_man: me too
I am the opposite – I miss the static pagination. It was much easier to scroll through and find a post I was interested in. (And it never got above 10 pages if you set the number of posts per page to the
maximum value 
)

I had to check when it was when I joined.
July '05, somehow I remember joining before we moved, but that was in '03
I miss the signatures. I had a quote from Margaret Thatcher that would be very timely now.
I don’t miss what seemed to be pretty heavy moderation, nor do I miss the near constant fund raising. People at least claimed to be afraid to donate, then get banned. I was suspended for 3 days because I was “unkind” to a high school student. It was kind of crazy.

The old system had moderators with names so you knew exactly who to contact per sub forum. There was also a clear and specific set of rules. We lost all of that - it’s now the vague “be nice and flag” system. The old rules established things like topics that we didn’t discuss (because they always devolved by post 5 into ugliness) and stickies about FAQs so we didn’t see so many of the same old thing popping up every 3 days.
We also lost features that kept things organized and sensible. Now, the feed just scrolls forever - no paging, no separate tab for subscriptions, no organization by post date. I’ve spent more time just trying to find things since the format changed, that’s for sure.

Same here. Have been for a while, though, and keep hanging around.

Did you know…
That there were sock mods? One mod had a few different names.

I see this from the other side. For my taste, the overfussy moderation was a bug that that has now been ironed out.

Did not. They always made it sound like “these wonderful volunteers…”

I didn’t know that, but it’s a good thing. Overflagging is a bad habit.

Without information as to who is flagging and why, this forum will stagnate and die. The absence of debate in important areas indicates that this is in process now.Those that police dissent by synchronised flagging will have destroyed any ability to rebut arguments, but perhaps that is what some fear they are incapable of doing anyway. In short they know they are trying to hold back the tide and they know the futility of their mission.

I am rather skeptical. Flagging us a definite problem, and I suspect it’s the same folks over and over again.
I have just adopted the rule, I never flag. If someone says something wrong, can I may call them out, but I never flag.

Yes, but it just flagged it for moderator review. Nothing happened until a moderator decided if action was appropriate. The current flagging system has automated components and is more enforceable by the community, for good and ill.
