Hang on Seb, Iāve got Richard_W on my āmutedā list. How come I can still see his posts?
Not to my knowledge. The old functionality was somewhat flawed as it was more of a hint as to the past 15 or so minutesā¦ but I will try to find out if something like that is planned
Why not? You can just scroll and scroll until you found it? Or you use the search, where is the problem?
But even better: Once you are in a topic, open the search from the top bar, and youāll see a check mark that says āsearch within topicā. Does that help? Give it a try and let me know
I believe muting applies only to PMs and notifications
yes, i meant that ā15 or so minutes hintā - i liked that - to see who was present, or still is
okay, i guess, itĀØs alright, itās probably only my temporary puzzlement
I have set up a Sandbox topic for everyone to play around in
Funny, that quoted post from Richard W, I canāt see it, only as the quote.
Same here; Other posts I see two or three times (when somebody replied to them)
So old achievements are gone? Man, I will never be a Django now. And the small round avatars, and white on white, and I canāt see basic statistics of a member immediately, and there is no option to log out automatically after some timeā¦ But I can learn to live with all of that, and if the search engine is really much better (have to play around with it a bit to judge) thatās great.
My major issue/question is: maybe Iām just too lazy to figure it out, but is there a way to see latest post of a topic, not first on top by default when I click on a topic? This clicking on āGo to bottomā is annoying, especially with that bottom escaping while page loads. For now āendless scrollā design to me seems more complicated and slower if you just want to check latest news in particular topic than old design with āpagesā.

Where is my Freddie Prinze Jr avatar? I am nothing without it.
Shit! This will take some time to getting use to.
@stanton I canāt quote reproduce, I see his original post. But I will ask the tech guys if they know of existin bugs. @scherpschutter not quite sure what you mean, can you possibly send me a screenshot?
@titoli the old āachievementsā were more or less manual ranks depending on post number. The amoung of posts doesnāt really say much about a usersās achievements in a community so I donāt shed too many tears about those. But I am thinking of establishing some additional ranks for some members, just havenāt thought of good criteria yet. āStaffā will definitely be back for those stepping up and becoming active users in the community.

and white on white
[/quote] @titoli where do you see white on white? Yes there is currently no option to manually set cookie expiration. As for basic stats, thereās a few numbers here:
On your major issue question, in any topic by clicking on the 
otherwise opening one will get you started where you left off reading the last time you visited the topic. Go to bottom is not exactly what youāre after, you can really just tell that thing to take you directly to the last one, thereās no scrolling necessary with that jump I think. With the old design with āpagesā you had to remember yourself which āpageā you were last on. Now, itāll remember where you left off and you keep reading the story as it develops.
@Sundance most avatars were carried over, however it seems not all of them were. I am sorry about that. I recommend using this as an opportunity to re-pimp your profile. Thereās also the option of setting a cool background image now.
@Lone_Gringo weāre here for you 
Let me know if you have questions, and do read the welcome topic where some basics are explained. Otherwise: use the sandbox topic to experiment.
@Admin Iām sure Iām not alone in appreciating what is essentially a dedicated IT support service while all of us gringos ābreak inā this new forum layout: thank you!

I know exactly how you feel! I was quite proud of how quickly I went from being an unarmed gringo to a bribed sheriff.
The default setting here are the trust levels. New users rise from 0 to 1 usually withing 15 minutes. Rising to 2 requires a lot of activity during the course of at least a week. And so on.
My suggestion would be to rename those, so instead of ātrust level Xā it would be āUnarmed Gringoā or āExperienced Gunslingerā. The downside is that itāll get harder to explain what this means.
Trust level 2 btw gets access to a private lounge 
@John_Welles I appreciate that
A private lounge ā¦sounds interesting 
@Admin Thanks for detailed answer! With āwhite on whiteā I was reffering to scherps comment.
Remembering where you left off is a cool feature, but I still wish there is ability to sort the topic from the last post on top (to set that in preferences or something). There is a reason why all those forums with old āpagesā design give you opportunity to click on the first AND the last page immidiately.
I just keep posting to get to that private loungeā¦
@titoli there is more to achieving trust level 2 than number of posts 
Did the old forum allow reverse sorting? I still donāt quite get the issue as here u can alo jump to the 1st post and the last post. I think we need to slowly just say adios to the notion of āpagesā as a visual guide which exists neither in normal conversations nor in chats yet folks want them in forums, for the sole reason that this how they have been doing it
