Might as well spend time on My Masterbuilt Electric Smoker on FB. This wave of Xenforo Pure crap Vol II is showing me the way to the SMF eject button. I'm amazed at the members patience and pleads from Tulsajeff and hellasteph to please bear with us since September 2017. I have nothing to show for my upstanding outstanding contributions to this site since 2013 other than the SMF premier membership I paid for to get rid of the scareware from this site. Everyone should have an honorary badge underneath their avatar that says Xenforo BS Platform Survivor. It had to be said by someone.
Al...... Am i the last of the flip phone users ??? You s'pose that's true... Step daughter keeps suggesting I get a smart phone... I make about 4 phonecalls/month.... I get about 40 robocalls/month....
I'm so old school.. I don't even have a cell phone... "Call the house.. If not home.. leave a message... I'll call you back if I want to" ...
That's pretty harsh. Overall I think the new platform is working good. Great things take time and work.

and actually... NONE of the pages "fully load"... the little circle in the tab just keeps spinning around... it never stops no matter how long I leave the page open ...

The thing is, every other site I go to works just fine. SMF is the only one that is doing this. I'm also getting about 200 email notifications a day from here, where I used to get 20-30. I'm going to turn off the notifications & see if that has anything to do with it. If there is something wrong with the site, it would be nice to know that, so that I could just forget about it until it's fixed. And as Keith said that little circle never stops spinning, like it's still trying to load up something else, but can't do it.

Same here We have a wireless landline, but the main phone is still a rotary. Nieces and nephews get a kick out of it when they come over.
Al, I've had email notifications turned off(at least I thought) for at about a month. Just checked my account and I'm still getting them. So I don't think that function is working properly. As for the spinning, have you cleaned out your cache and history recently? I have to do it on a regular basis.

Seems maybe this started after the new privacy notice that came out a couple of days ago ?
I had to agree to it or in wouldn't let me on .

Same here. I had a cell phone when I worked for my Son, and when I no longer worked for him, he told me to keep it & he'll pay for it. Then a year later he took it & gave it to one of his employees, because I only used it for 12 minutes in that whole year. I do use a cordless, but I gotta return to base every few days for recharge. LOL

I just noticed that our locations are missing now. I could have sworn that they were openly displayed under your grouping or whatever newbie, meat mopper or smoking fanatic are called. There still visible when clicking on the avatar, and I haven't had a beer today.

You're right---I kinda noticed yours this morning, thinking yours used to say CT. But without looking at any others I thought it was only yours.
Now I see they're all gone---Even My "Macungie, PA"
That's strange!
Bear
Yeah I know, but it used to say it right at the bottom right of the Profile Pic, so you could just roll your eyes over and see where this guy is from.
I know I look pretty often when helping with MES & AMNPS, because of Humidity, Temperature, & Altitude.
Not a Big Deal---Just strange that they all went Bye-Bye.
Bear
LOL---I got CRS!!
CT & VT are both Beautiful States, soo.........
Those new storms didn't get here yet.
Bear
Which is exactly the kind of "improvement" along with the new format that make the site less friendly to use than it was. A poster's location and post count are often valuable to know so as to provide a more focused response. We used to be able to see them at a glance and now we have to go out of our way to see them.
And the suggestions some have made that those who are having the reloading issue must have some issue internal to their own computer doesn't wash. So far, those of us who have the issue have reported that we only have it here so SMF is clearly, to me at least, the common denominator.
I'm grateful that the site is here but I spend far less time here now.
