>(either that, or can the titles of post be made a little bigger? They don't stand out enough for my taste)
Change your forum theme under options to one of the ones with "Scaleable Fonts".

I can't say I hate the new boards but I do hate losing my option to use the old boards. Why am I sent directly to the new format with no options while others are still seeing the old and able to access either boards?
If I absolutely MUST use the new boards could someone at least tell me how to "view next"?

http://forums.play.net still works. You can still access either version as far as I am aware.
What do you mean by 'view next' Gizella?

Oh, bless you! And perhaps "view next" is more accurately called "read next" but I'm talking about that little blue arrow at the bottom of the current post I'm reading which opens the next post in sequence.
Thanks again!

The old boards and my PC hated each other. The old boards would constantly cause me all kinds of problems. Freeze my PC or the boards would freeze up and then I could not open them again unless I rebooted. Also if there were over 800 posts in a folder..... forget it. No way I could open it without something freezing. It may have been something I was doing that was causing me so much grief, I really don't know.
However, the new boards are great! I no longer have any trouble with freezing and crashing. I can open any folder... go back and reread old posts with no trouble at all. Even those with 1000's of posts because I can controll how many posts open at a time. I'll admit they took getting use to, but overall I'm extreamly happy with them and have not opened the old forums since this version went up.
Great job and many thanks to those that designed them!!

Not me, I prefer the new boards.
Pull down a list of all messages and have it broken up into pages rather than one looooooong page which will cause me to lose all those messages should my computer crash while I am reading.
Links for ignoring authors (though I haven't used it yet, a good idea) and emailing them. Solomon promised us "soon" we would have avatars as well. Colors which are softer on the eye.
Just a few more features and they will be downright perfect.

If you really wanted to view one message at a time, just go to your OPTIONS (upper-right corner of screen), and set the "Post per page" to 1.
Personally, I read 25 pp and have my default to collapse so that I can browse the authors/posts.

<<I don't see the advantage to this, why not just scroll through the open posts and not read the ones you don't want.>>
It prevents you from having to scroll through about 13987 pages. If someone includes a log in their post, it can be even longer than that.
Collapsed view as the default is the way to go, IMO.

the only problem I'm seeing with the new boards as opposed to the old ones...
with the old ones i had an unlimited amount of time to read them....whereas, with the new ones, if i'm off the boards for a few hours in the game playing, and then I try to read the new posts--i am taken to a screen where i have to log in again. what is with that?
