They made the change

I like that when you click on a post it automatically takes you to the last entry.

I love the last entry thing. Scrolling through pages was kind of a nightmare.

Yeah, the last entry thing is great.

I've also been unable to use smileys or any kind of link or picture edit buttons for a LONG time, using Safari on a Mac, so just the functionality is great.

I love a good, clean design so I'm surprising myself by saying this, but the only part that bothers me is the huuuuuge amounts of whitespace. We have an enormous monitor, so I wonder if that's why it bothers me so much. I know I'll get used to it and move on though. 

I did lose over 5,000 posts though, so there's that :-/

They are listed with all the other boards now.

I'm so confused by everything. Are they planning on replacing all the white space with something?

They're there.  They're just not sub-boards any longer.  They're at the same level as all the parent boards.

I checked out the format on The Bump and didn't completely hate it, but now I realize that I do.  Because I visit other boards than NBC, and there's no sidebar to let me jump to another board! 

That drop-down at the top is inconvenient but looks promising, but NOooooo.  It just takes you to the whole list, where you have to scrounge around looking for things.

@NestCayla, is the idea now that we're supposed to choose one board and stick with it?  The Nest doesn't want us posting outside our home board?  Otherwise, why would y'all make it so hard to get to them?

I guess I'm weird, and clearly someone who likes books wouldn't also be interested in money or pets or travel.  My bad.

PS - What was with the huge deal you made about keeping the points that no one cared about it?  I have no points.  Where are my points?  If you make a promise that we'll keep that shit, you should let us keep that shit!  And why do I have ten anniversary badges on The friggin' Bump but I don't have any here?

I do like that in the signature update you can see that it works first instead of refreshing an old post 100 times to see if it went through.

So far, my only issue is the massive amounts of white, but I think I'll get used to that.  I love that we can tag people and 'love it'.

I agree.

The white is obnoxious but I think I'll get used to it. Otherwise I think I'm going to like this format better.  Fingers crossed any kinks get worked out!

I HAVE BADGES AND A POST COUNT!  #thatisall

The only thing I am not a huge fan of and it may just be my work computer, but it does not always catch whatever I am typing. Lots of times I have to hit the space bar twice or retype what I wrote. Typing super slow seems to work a little to stop the problem

Okay, I have to admit. I love it on mobile. It's so much easier to reply. But where are the sigs? Can you see them on the regular site?

Sigs are here but messed up and the layout is really bad.

Okay so SOME sigs are here.  Mine apparently reverted back to March as my book count is 17 and this morning I changed it to 59.

Yea. Mine says I'm 61 weeks pregnant lol

Not just you. I thought it was me, but this has been happening to me on the bump since it switched over. Verra annoying!

Yea, my issues posting on the bump always happen on my phone (I always go on in during middle of the night feedings). I'm on my laptop (Chrome) right now and not having any issues...
