My computer does it with a 3MB connection,I dont think your connection is totally at fault ,I have other sites that do it worse. we have fiber dsl a hundred yards away ,but there is a pair of copper conductors that bring it in.I believe the old dail up was about as fast when I finally got over 40 kps ,cant expect but so much from Hooterville.I am contemplating 4G ,but at least my bill pay works fine on this setup. ---

Why dont they just dump or archive the old threads from say 6 months ago? ---

WTH . . . ?! I don’t recall mentioning any names, and I wasn’t thinking of you in any case It’s not helpful if one guy starts a thread, talking about problems on his Honda Accord. Then the discussion ends. Several months/years later, somebody else revives it, and this guy’s got a Chevy Silverado, for example And naturally, we don’t always look that carefully, so we don’t initially realize what happened Big waste of time for everybody ---

Does the “like” button have to be a pink heart? I want to like a post, not love it. ---

@cdaquila … I finally got around to testing the new format today for the first time, seems to work pretty well. I’ll have to try it out quite a few more times before I’ll have a good grasp on how it all works I expect. I did come up with a couple of questions maybe others have already asked. If so, apologize for the repeat. - Is there an equivalent method to the old version, where I could click on my user name, and go through a list of the threads I’ve recently participated in? Likewise, there was a list of the recent threads I had personally created available; is the same thing here somewhere? - Does every post appear in the main thread list at some point, even if some posts are replies not to the OP but to another poster? i.e. do I need to look through all the reply sub-threads? The reason I ask is b/c I noticed in one thread today a poster mentioned the OP was trying to bleed the brakes, but I saw no post in the main thread list where the OP was saying anything about that. - Finally, with the new format I’m only able to view the “Community” section of Car Talk on a special computer I’ve configured to use different software. The computer I had prior used for participating here is blocking all the “Community” section content, so on that computer all I see is a thin red horizontal line at the top. It seems to have to do w/ some kind of disagreement about this site’s JavaScript usage, along with complaints about this new site’s trying to ascertain the computer’s physical location. Some complaints about ad-ware usage too. I didn’t have either of those problems with the prior site version on the other computer. When I inquired about this with a Silicon Valley IT pro, they suggested they couldn’t view this site either successfully, and that I not try to defeat the software’s security features as it could compromise my computer.
