My old name and a gray background and we're all good. I'd even take grey.
New Forum Software? Angry Penguin is angry!
New gripe: the new edit box lacks the view HTML/BBcode button that the old forum edit box had.

Anyone know how to request the Desktop site on an IPhone?

It was very nice to be able to kill the BBcode for a minute to clean up quote boxes, nested quotes, and the like.
And there's a "bloop" sound when a thread gets a new response! Took me forever to figure out why Abby Road had some kind of freaky dance remix.

You can turn off that notification sound, in case you didn't know.
I want to find whatever genius (at Apple or Facebook or Twitter or wherever) who originated this "modern", "hip", "cool" trend in low-contrast, borders-lacking layouts for forums and webpages, and choke them unconscious. Seriously, how can "grayscale blur" be considered a functional, readable layout?

Judas H gods, what a time I just had with spoiler functionality and accidentally dragging and dropping the image of the whole goddamned web page into the post along with about 50 unnecessary blank lines.

Not this button?
No, wrong screen. Go to Account Settings. Then from the right side of the screen Notification Settings under Other Settings. Uncheck the 3rd checkbox in Notification preferences. Enjoy the silence.

How?
Brad, I just answered that in the post right before your last post.

Got it. Thanks!
We so much need to petition the mods to rename Kabong into "Angry Penguin is angry."

Has anyone tried using the search function on a forum topic after the recent software change? Search returns zero hits even though Google tells me that somewhere in the thread my search terms exist. ![]()
I don't like change, and this epitomizes everything I don't like about it.

Ah! Found it!

Well what do know, the forum accepts other emoji... that could be a bad thing.
