I can't consistently access RF from my phone. Often I get "cannot make secure connection". Then I have nothing.

Almost always, when I do have connection I can't reply because it gets randomly inserted into the quote when I try.

The new RF only works reliably when I am on a computer. I usually RF from my phone. Now that is maddening chaotic, I never know what RF will do or not do or how long it will take to find out.

I changed browsers, asked the library tech to help, everything I know. RF just doesn't work anymore on the device I use most of the time for internet play.

I just found a baffling and honestly a little annoying hidden functionality. On the chat (and it seems on the forum too) there are arbitrary keywords that are set to automatically turn into links. It could be a pretty useful function, but some of the urls are just weird. For example Batman sends you to Walmart. I'm pretty sure that isn't intentional... Please tell me it isn't intentional.

I don't see that Batman Walmart behavior.

It doesn't consistently convert all links and for the moment I have no idea what logic it uses for it. On my screen that Batman word is a grey link. On the chat I accidentally stumbled upon other keywords as well. It says the service is provided by a company called VigLink, which seems to be some sort of monetization company for selling site-to-site links. Links like that also affect seach engines, so for example my stray mention of Batman that is a link to Walmart's online shop will lift Walmart in the seach results on Google whenever someone searches with the keyword "batman".

Quintessence, I'm not 100% sure, but I think you are ok. It is possible either Thorbjorn or Riverwolf edited their posts during your reply.

Take a look at the PDF accompanying this post. Maybe it will help in verifying the situation.

Huh. I am not seeing the images in Lucifer's signature either. Strange. I think I am just not seeing any images people include at all.

I dont know if anyone has mentioned this already but, I would like the Preview button to appear with the regular quick-reply box. Currently, it only appears if I click "More Options" to bring up the separate reply page.

I'll try to respond again. The last time I was on my phone. Which also started inexplicably jumbling my responses, by inserting them into the quote being responded to.

Ever since the switch I frequently (40%?) get a box that says "secure connection cannot be established" and usually nothing happens after that for awhile, although sometimes it does. The suggestion was made to lower my IE security setting, but I don't have IE. The library guy I asked to help said I have a generic browser(whatever that means), and it has no function that will change that. I also have Chrome, but it is slow(about a minute to load a RF page) and wonky(sometimes the page just becomes a blur, clearly RF but unreadable). When I'm on a better computer, as I am now at the library, RF works OK. But I don't usually use library computer time on amusement like RF, if I can't do it from my phone I mostly just won't.

Perhaps Firefox would work better, but I would have to ask the library guy yet again to help me figure out how to fix RF on my phone. I don't have trouble with any other site.

Still wondering about the chatroom. Possibility of pop up notice of people within? And perhaps sound notifications?

So this is small but I really don't like the favicon (the picture that shows up next to the title in the open tab/window or on your favorites bar) being a church. with a cross on it.
 
@Brent W
I know that we can arrange our pics in the order we want to but I cannot arrange my albums in the order I want.Does anyone know how to do that?

I don't think it's small at all. This isn't a Christian forum, and the icon is misleading. I actually don't see it depending on what browser I'm using, but I saw it today at work and went "wait... what?!"

Is there any possible way to change our usernames?

Yes, but staff, and possibly just admins right now, have to do it for you. If you're able to see the Site Feedback forum, I'd put your request in there

Thanks. If you can do it, or get an admin to do it, I just want it changed to simply "fantome profane" without any fancy characters.

What about the various different themes we used to have. I think this screen is OK, but too bright for my eyes. I used to use the darker ones. Besides, I have a bit of trouble with the gray writing on a white background.

It makes me depressed. I use to use the pink one with hearts, but I also liked the new site.before it was "rettofitted" to look like the old rf
