I do.
I can't believe they gave me a pink one!
It was notable that something was seriously wrong leading up to the change... every frubal took between 30 seconds to a minute to 'take'. At first I thought it was my internet, but other sites seemed to be working fine...
Damnit, that was supposed to be mine * snatches George's daiquiri*I can't believe they gave me a pink one!
Even on its best days the old software was, well, old.
Its fine. You can have my daiquiri. I took your whiskey.

I looked at account settings and religious affiliation is still there, and it still says the religion I follow. Maybe if there was a way when you hover over someone's name there could be a small section that tells you their religious affiliation, that would make the feature useful again?

I don't think they wrote code for that. Are you volunteering to write it? Joke.
I just found an issue.

You just have to click the image and then you can resize it.
Make sure the preview tab on the right isn't toggled on.
No. This has been around since the last iteration.

I do? I thought they fired me months ago. In that case, I guess I should do some work before they fire me...Yet you've still got the job.

The correct term seems to be "select". Here's an explanation I found. I selected and copied it on the other site and pasted it here with Ctrl/V. I can't select any of it here in the reply area. Added: I can select text now that it is posted, but once I edit it I can't do it again.
How to select text in Windows by clicking or tapping
Highlighting text in Windows by clicking or tapping works pretty much the same way as selecting multiple items. Click or tap once, and hold to start your selection. Then, drag your cursor or finger and notice how the characters on your screen are highlighted. Release when you are done selecting your text.
It doesn't work on Microsoft Edge either. Thought I'd try it, as some sites are not tested on Firefox. No, that's not it.

You have time for another forum? When do you sleep?
I post at one other less.You have time for another forum? When do you sleep?
And at a 3rd on rarely.
Besides, my posts usually take only a couple seconds to compose & type out.

Well, that seems to have fixed it. Wait a minute, now it's different. With Preview in R-hand top corner bold, I can enter new stuff (as I am now). But I can't select. Click the text and it goes off ... and I can select and copy but not type more or position the cursor to paste. Click the text and it goes off ... That last bit was from the copy I did, now I can paste it but not select.

This is another bit of backstage trouble: the first time the email verification stopped working, the admins contacted the owners because we knew that the lack of new registrations was a major issue for a forum like this. The owners attempted to fix it within the confines of the old software, but it didn't even last a full week before breaking again because the software had no reliable spambot control in place.
For months after, I would sometimes browse the list of new registrations in the admin CP to manually validate accounts. Of course, I needed to check the IPs against spam blacklists in case they were spam IPs. So in order to come out with two or three legitimate new members, I usually had to go through 20-30 spambots.
If the forum could have somehow survived the issues with the old software for a few more months, the long-term deterioration would have absolutely killed the forum anyway.
