New Scout Boards

[Mjcpr]

Does anyone read any of the Scout boards that have recently changed over to a different board software........or whatever?

Horrible. Or maybe it's just my browser. When I click on a thread to read it, I have to hit the back button 2 or 3 times to get back to where I started from.

Here's an example....

Whatever that board software is, I hope SF/SportsWar never gets it.

Yeah, on the new board the back button will first take you back to the top of the thread, then you have to hit back again to get to the topics listing. Not to mention the emoticons on the new boards suck. One good thing about the new Scout boards though is that if you want to post a picture you don't have to use html, you just copy teh pic and paste it into your post...

Interesting, and sucky. I didn't know that.

FYI - It still sucks.

indeed...now I have the problem of when I try to reply to a topic, many times it will close out my internet all together so I have to go back to the page, find the thread, and try to reply again.

Also, a lot of times instead of having the stars at the bottom of each post it just has a box that says "1 star", "2 stars", etc...

New Scout boards are indeed teh sukk.

Here is what I get a lot of times on the new Scout boards...

Ignore the Moooooooo AgEwe thing...apparently that is a clever little retort the Bama fans have come up with when they see a post by an Auburn fan...:rolleyes:

Those Bama fans are brilliant...

I get that at home sometimes, even on these boards.

ezBoard is really, really crappy software.

That new stuff they're throwing out there is prettier, but a whole lot more crappy.

Why couldn't scout have switched to vBulletin :mad:
