Can we go back to simples forum?

Thank you for your participation and interest in the Mises Community. This software platform has seen its day, however, and so is now closed. We are redoing our entire site, so look for some exciting developments by the end of the year. Thank you for your support of Austrian economics, liberty, and peace.

Can we go back to simples forum?

Ever since this CK editor thingy barely anything works anymore. Posting has become a huge chore. Preview doesn't work. Quoting can't be done for real. Replying doesn't work in some browsers and I could go on. Down with technology I say! Who is with me?

I am inclined to join the luddite revolution, but once this interface has all its glitches scraped out, I believe it could really improve the way we post.

So, give the proper authorities time to meet the demands of the people. I am sure our benevolent leaders are working tirelessly to fix the problem. cheeky

I'm sure some people are working on the bugs.  I want to raise another problem I found so the honorable computer whizs that make this forum so great yesknow, but they may already know.

When I go to "edit" my profile there is no "Description" toolbar (like the one above seen while in the process of posting).  There used to be when I tried to write in additions to my Bio and Signature.

Agreed.  My browser (Opera 10.51) doesn't even work anymore with this new JavaScript cursed thing, I had to use a different one just to post this--not cool!

Wow, it gets worse - my backup browser (Chrome) can't even do a copy/paste.  I hope IE works (ughhhh) or I won't be here much more...

 

Have I ever mentioned how much I HATE complex JavaScript and the broken nature of anything done in it?  :p

Something broke when the software was upgraded. Someone is working on it.

Browser spellcheck not working is another bad one for me. I can't spell for s*** without it.
