New server/upgrade issues and comments

I can't reply to posts via the reply button, edit and save posts, delete posts, or go to advanced.
 
On the Activity Stream page it is difficult to read the blue on blue writing on the bar. Only the "replied to thread" in black print is legible. It can be read but it is not easy on the eyes.

Yeah the edit and quote reply buttons do work if you right click and open them in a new window. You can save that way too.

I'm really missing the keys for the italics and everything though.

This. The " formatting palette " I believe it's called.

I cant change the formatting of the majority of posts, nor could I get them to work using a new window right click.

Hey engineers/admins, don't know if anyone has mentioned that you can't edit posts, but I can't edit my posts. Not sure if anyone has already explained a temporary fix ITT, I didn't read it, just thought I'd let you know I can't edit my posts. Not transferred a website from one server to another myself, but presume it's just like when I drag and drop files on my desktop. Hate to be "that guy", but can you guys do some actual work for a change? Never perform technically demanding and anonymous voluntary work personally, but think that a sense of entitlement and taking things for granted is the proper attitude to those who do.

Could you be a little bit more sarcastic please? :D
 
^I am triple posting at this point and I miss the smileys.. They help me portray my frustration in a more visual manner. D: .

Oh yeah, because I'm so sarcastic all the time...
You may notice it's still possible to employ all the normal tools by manually inputting the tags. The icons, the palette, they're a shortcut, a useful one, but hardly the greatest priority. I imagine most users know how to use the tags, obviously all staff do, and furthermore, I actually already posted the most commonly used ones earlier in the thread (using the [noparse][/noparse] tags. I forgot the [img][/img] tags earlier, they're for pictures. You'll notice this isn't C++, these codes aren't hard, use them
 
Can' quote, can't edit posts and get random errors all the time :/

Tried disabling NoScript plugin but that just didn't help at all.
 
Reading my last post back, knock, it reads like I'm having a go at you, which I'm not. I just meant my post to demonstrate that a lot of the functionality that people are complaining they don't have is actually still available.

Not that hard for you to glance at the 2 or 3 posts prior to yours and see that yes, several people have already mentioned the problems you are stating...if ya wanna talk about anyone putting a lil effort forward...

Aye it's OK I worked that out after about 10 seconds :)

Missmeyet that is babylonboy's point, he is using parody or irony or something, I'm never 100% sure, maybe both, to make that point.
 
This is the least of of the problems, but something to be aware of: some newer folks with less than 50 posts are "Bluelighters." I wonder what the parameters for "recent activity" are? I don't see any of my OWN activity there.

Are you suggesting I stated a thing that has one meaning at literal face value, but was actually intended to be interpreted in another way? If you're insinuating I might have used language in an insincere way, well, I'm sickened by your cynicism, frankly. You know me, I wear my heart on my sleeve.

Guys, this is great. It's encouraging to see this upgrade take place so soon after the funding drive, seems like you're very proactive and efficient.

Thank you so much for noticing this and the kind words. We take our member's contributions very seriously and wanted to make sure that we reciprocated with tangible "deliverables" as soon as possible. As a matter of fact, the new server and domain name were bought even earlier, but we had to wait to make the transition for logistical reasons.

Thanks to everyone providing feedback. It's great to see our crowd sourced QA efforts in full swing and look forward to having the site/server at 100% soon.
