What was your previous username? Email [email protected]
All-Star..., Buffaloed also told me about the email address. At this point though, it's no longer a big deal. This account works just fine, and it's what I have cached. It's not like I posted a ton anyway, so I'm fairly incognito either way. Thanks anyway!

Ok I give up. How do I get to my list of recent posts?

Thanks for an anticipated answer.

Skin options please. This is a little harsh on the eyes. It's the view a patient in the OR room gets before going unconscious.

An option to hide avatars would be nice.

Both in threads and when browsing forums. These pics aside thread titles is one huge waste of space.

I don't necessarily mind the setup, I just dislike the look. I'm assuming there are some settings I can tweak on my own end to make it look nicer though just haven't had time to check.

I already asked this but no one was kind enough to answer when I type on my PC the cursor sometimes jumps on himself to an undesirable position. Is this on my end or someone else encounters the same issues?

Can someone check the Search function? It doesn't appear to work.

Yesterday, I searched for "Music" to find the music thread and it said there were no results. And yes, I properly checked off the boxes saying I wanted the search to be conducted on this forum and shown as threads only. I ended up having to scroll through several pages in order to zero in on the thread.

Today, I tried to locate a post from last week that contained the word "Facebook" and tried again with the words "Facebook group". Again, it produced a "no results" outcome.

If we're going to avoid redundancy and a waste of time, a working Search function is critical.

Can please someone conduct a check of the Search function otherwise in its current state, it's useless.

Has anyone noticed some malicious redirects since the forum migration to the new provider?
This happens on Mobile (Android) and often times when I navigate to the Habs forum I get re-directed to a malicious page trying to download a spam app from the Play store. Often see this behaviour on certain streaming websites but wouldn't expect to see it here.

We are acutely aware of the problems with search and they are working on it.

Thanks for the quick follow-up. Wasn't aware that it had already been brought to your attention.

I use Mozilla Firefox and I downloaded an add on (dark background and light text). I'm liking it so far but it's different. At least I don't need sunglasses to be on HF boards though. That would just make me too cool in the office

Montserrat webfont has got to go. Way to wide with wonky terminals to be used as body text, especially in a complex and busy UI such as an online forum. I permantly disabled webfonts for HFboards and its way easier to read.
