This is crap! How the hell can we make any changes to the text? Color, size? All there is is Bold or Italic. There are, as far as I’m concerned better atheist sites. But then I don’t do social media stuff. I don’t even text or receive texts.

Umar please delete my membership completely.

(by Davis)“ul” “ol” “li” are used to list items.

@davis

There is a reply link above each message/reply.

I seldom if ever use lists on these forums but will try to remember this little bit of information.

Thanks, Davis. BTW what does @davis mean? Is that a link to a social networking site? (I wouldn’t know since I never use them).

MyBB is a forum software. TA is a social networking site. We need a platform that has features like media and groups.

As Colonel Potter of M*A*S*H would say “Mule Muffens”.

If this is a social networking site it may be I should be excommunicated. I have no use for “Social Networking Sites”, I even shitcanned FB as it seems to me all you see on it is “friends”, hundreds of them with little or no content. I also don’t use twitter or any of the others. I think Trumps use of Twitter(?) is a prefect case of the utter uselessness of social networking sites and why I stay away from them.

I thought TA was a site where atheists and religious people could come to “discuss” their differences as other atheists sites do. I believe you are going to loose members to this nonsense (my belief,not a categorical statement).

Apparently you (or someone) had to or someone decided, arbitrarily, to move to a different format. As I recall I posted regularly to TA, but here, not so sure. I will, probably, check it once in a while but not regularly like I did at TA. If someone decides to ban me I am not sure it would be much of a loss for me. There are still a number of atheist forums I am a member of, so I’ll be looking at them more often.

Again, in my opinion, social sites are the (expletive(s) deleted) of humanity (choose your own expletive(s)).

It’s worse than awful. I wish whoever found this host had found some other host that had a format similar to most of the other forums – all regardless of the subject; health, atheist, religious or otherwise.

I am a member of a few other forums and this is the most unfriendly one I think I’ve ever seen.

[quote](by Belle Rose)Why exactly are we doing this???? We were perfectly happy on TA….wtf…[/quote]

I’m with you Belle. I have no idea what the problems with ning were but certainly not enough to saddle us with this site.

And Davis, I concur with your suggestions and am also confused with the /ul and /ol thingies. In fact most of the formatting bar is unintelligible. What the hell, for instance means blockquote?

As you can see I’ve had to manually add quotes.

Well, I guess that answers that question. I really don’t like this forum form. And while I’m at it what the hell is all this backlashing along with the apostrophe when you are typing a contracted word?

The codding in the background seems a bit fashioned, though I don’t code and haven’t looked at it. Un ungainly to say the least.

Ranting is not going to make the site better, I just hope the forum owners/moderators Take notice and do something to make this site more user friendly. Or move to another host.

I just tried to access TA and guess what I get redirected back here; Bummer.

Apparently threads were not, maybe not, migrated over to AZ (not Arizona).

Well so much for smileys. Tried but couldn’t get one to work. Another Bummer.

This place needs help; not AZ but the host whoever that is.
