This layout makes it harder to skip quickly over threads compared to PO, but that same bickering was definitely there. This layout is much more friendly in may other ways, and being able to inject media is a big benefit to most of us (e.g. you don't have to leave the site to view highlight links). When PO first went down, I created a new site that had a similar layout, about the same time this one once created. This layout got the broader adoption, and here we are. We did have some better contributors, such at the Candy Report that haven't migrated (well, I think that stopped during PO days). Candy Report still alive and well. I also liked the PO format better. It could be my poor computer skills, but I don't like the time it takes to find new posts on an old thread. theofficialcandyreport.com/There's a NEW icon next to every thread with new posts. Click on the NEW icon and it takes you right to the new posts. Couldn't be easier. |

This guy has been registered for 2 years and his only post is a complaint. Sad!

I'm still not used to the layout of this board. It seemed like pure orange was easier to use and contained more information. That leads me to my main point. Many threads on here devolve into little squabbles and arguments among members. It dilutes the content. I'm tired of wading through all the pissing matches. I think you're wrong about the arguing. I remember in PO people were actually going to meet up for a good old fashioned brawl!! One big positive for BH: It works all the time. Works all the time? Seems to me it's broken down for short periods 3-4 times this summer/very early fall. Give it a couple years when the user base/bandwidth grows and there may be more breakdowns. If the Glove keeps relatively on top of this board for 12/15 years straight like Lucky did I'll be very impressed. I've been on huge monetized boards that couldn't make it anywhere near that long. |

Touchy? I've never had any problem accessing this site. Sorry if you're defensive about Pure Orange but I'll stand by my statement. I also appreciated everything Lucky did and loved the site. I was thankful Benny's House was created. |

“I used to read basically two things. My Bible and PO”.
Good Lord!

I guess I'm the only one who things there's too much bickering. Bicker on message boarders! Go Beavs.

See where it goes from there. If it doesn't work, try it again. Seems odd to only post about what you don't like, making no effort to use the board for what you think it should be for. But hey, it's a free country. |
