New Forum Format Sucks


The new forum format sucks. The old one was perfectly fine.

I'm ticked.  Somehow they totally lost my membership.  I've been a member that logs into this forum for 3 years.  After the change to the new forum, I couldn't log in.  My laptop has my handle and password memorized, and I could not log in.

I spent about a 1/2 hour trying to create a new name and rejoining, even though I new I'd have no access to my past posts, etc.  Finally I did what I HATE to do, and signed in using that weird paypal thing.  

It still didn't accept my original handle.  Has anyone else experienced this, because I'm ready to punt this forum.

And you think that’s because of a new format/program?

Yes. The changed the sorting time.

In the past, there were separate passwords for the selling part of the site and the forums. Now, there is only one login. So, if you were using different passwords for the two parts of the site, you now have to use the one for the selling part of the site. No sure, but that may be what you are seeing.
Didn't everyone have to change their password due to more restrictive security rules on the passwords?  I couldn't remember my password but it would not have satisfied the new standard anyway.
