Dear New Knot

I'm trying to like you.  I really am.  I can see that you have many fine qualities and that we should be great friends. 

Unfortunately, you're rapidly curing my Knot addiction with your annoying new quirks.  Like taking forever to load a page (I know what you're going to say, TK, but I can't use Firefox at work).  Also, please give me back my SN.  I'm not keen on being a long string of numbers, but can't be assed making a new SN.  I hear your IT gods are working on it.  Be a pal and help them out, will you?

Big hugs & kisses

  • It is running extra slow today.  I normally don't have too many problems, but today has been ridic.

    Oh, pc4rc...

    This subject has been revisited eleventy jillion times.  Try mozilla, it helps.  A lot.

    P.S. I'm sad that eleventy billion mcjillion numbers is yourSN name now.  :(
  • Dear New Knot:

    Please make some of the old posters that you scared off come back.  I miss how busy it used to be around here.

    Kthx,

    kiki

    Please to explain this. Why can't you make a new SN? JK did (formerly known as the J&K variety).

    This.  I don't know why it's so slow around here.  I've been roaming around on The Nest to compensate.  I feel like Judas.
  • I wish I could use Mozilla, but we have to use IE at work and our stupid webmarshall won't let us install anything else :(
  • That sucks they changed you into a string of numbers.  And yes, today was super slow.

  • JC, I was surprised that I was allowed to download Mozilla at work.  Have you tried?  We have EVERYTHING blocked at work, but it allowed that.  Never hurts to try.
  • I can't put my finger on it, but there's just something about this place that's different.

    And not good different.

    I'm guilty of not being around as much because...well...something is just off about it.

    Apparently the Knot Gods are working on fixing the bug, so will give it a few days to see if it works itself out.  If not, I'll make a new one. It isn't like a load of people know who I am anyway :)
  • Capri- stay away from the Nest!  You're way too sane for that place.
    image
  • Capri, I tried that ages ago, but it's locked out.  I'm surprised I can even access TK, to tell the truth. 

    Fische, I agree on that.  Another thing that is curing my Knot addiction.
  • Thanks kiki!  You made me smile! :)

    This. <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-frown.gif" border="0" alt="Frown" title="Frown" /> Sometimes I'll come to see what's up on the board and it's nothing (or nothing I would normally respond to), so I can't summon the motivation to post and I go away. What happened?

  • I think things will come back, but it will probably be awhile. 

    But yeah, it's rough.  I actually worked this morning instead of hanging around here.  :(

    I was spending far too much time knotting at work, so I suppose my employer would be happy about the new boards.
  • Totally unrelated threadjack: can someone please tell me how to get knottv the hell off my screen?

  • Kiki, I hope people come back too, but I worry that we are getting used to life w/o knotting as much, so even though it sucks people will move on to something else.

    The board change feels like when you and your friends end up at different schools... it's not the same environment, you don't know as many people, but you end up finding new places and people and end up not talking to your old friends anymore, even though it was good times.

  • you are wlecome lauren--I totaly understand what you mean!
  • Is there still a 3 day waiting period when you create a new name?
  • Navy, it TOLD me there was, but it let me post minutes after making my new SN.
  • I really really really dislike that when I go to see my posts, it just shows the post name and goheels05.  Yeah, dude, I clicked "My posts," I know I posted in it.  What I want to know is if anyone ELSE has posted in it so I know whether or not to spend 3 minutes waiting for the damn thread to load.  I really thought they were fixing that feature before going live with the new format.

    Whew it feels good to get that off my chest.  I've tried really hard not to contribute to the incessant complaining, but that's really been bugging me.
