I used to be Toxteth O'Grady on the old board. I've had the hardest time registering here. I expect there are others in the same boat. Perhaps it's worth turning on guest posting for a bit so people can voice their registration problems?
The only thing I did differently with this account was I ticked "yes" to receiving all the e-mails from third parties, said "yes" to being a WSC subscriber (I'm not) and "yes" to receiving WSC e-mails. Somehow, with all those ticked, I received the registration e-mail. All my other attempts, with gmail, hotmail, and mail.com accounts (yes, I'm persistent!) all failed.
Perhaps it's the apostrophe in "O'Grady" that did it. I dunno. But I bet I'm not the only one affected.
How is the new place? What are the locals like? Any nasty looking dogs around? Decent pubs?
Oh, before I forget, I noticed I was yesterday's 'post of the day'. I presume a cheque is in the post, or at least a substantial discount off my subscription renewal...
But it is rotten. I have seen a thread on how I can force my computer to make it more beautiful (Helvetica or Arial, 10pt) but it really is the last resort if it is only going to be so. I mean, posting here merrily while it looks like crap for everyone else.
Blimey, I agree about the layout. The WSC sidebar (though I realise it allows better integration with the WSC site of course) makes it feel totally different.
I'm not so bothered about the font, but the new quote function doesn't look very good at all...
