Complaints Café!!!
Hi all!!
When we had a lovely old site there was a thread called the international cafe, and it really helped the site as it was a magnificent thread, so because of this l decided to open a thread for the complaints about this new version that l absolutely hate!!!! and since l'm burning and l'm soooo angry!! l can't really be positive and post a lovely thread saying thanks for the horrible changes!! even if there were positive changes, there are indeed more negative changes!!
So since yelling and being angry about it isn't really helping! l'm posting this for a feed back, only post problems that you're having on this new version of the site!! do not post additional stuff that could be added but rather, the things that aren't working like they are supposed to do!!!
OK here are the problems l've faced so far!!
1- Where are my lovely fancy boxes with all the backgrounds?!!! This causes: 1- the word of the day thread wouldn't even be there because all the stuff written there is in the same boxes!!!! 2- also, l cannot decorate anything anymore and l'm angry about it!
2- No roll back function so l just lost my thread!! l worked for soo long to get this thread done and when l edited it all the graphics were gone, tried to roll back and there isn't even a button for that!!!!!
3- Edit a question and it jumps in the first page no matter how old is it!!
4- l try to edit a thread or write an answer with a link on it and this is how it looks:
![alt text][1] l hope the following will be fixed!!

I haven't really had time to experiment with any of the new features because I can't get a new password! A verification code is sent to me which directs me back to signing in with a username and password. I guess I just lost my whole account that was established for 2 years! Other than that, everything looks great!
My gosh. I got on SpanishDict tonight and I wasn't expecting this. I guess there is no going back to the old site now. These are my complaints...
1.I really mis the "recent activity" box. I liked being able to see some of the recent questions and comments without going to the forum.
2.The reference articles are way too hard to find. For anyone who doesn't know how, go to "Q&A," click on "Categories," and then scroll down to "Reference Articles" (at the very bottom.)
3.I love the grammar articles but they need a little proof-reading. There several complaints about this when this was just the beta site. Some may have been corrected - I haven't checked and the complaints were mostly from other people anyway. I just want to make sure it gets brought up. Also, the page with the articles and quizzes still says "beta" on it.
Edit: I'm back with a couple more! I just couldn't resist.
4.I just tested a quiz on the preterit tense in the grammar section. I recieved 90%. When I finished the quiz told me "You have recieved 90% on this quiz. Would you like to try again and try to get 90%?"
5.My profile says I joined SpanishDict 42 minutes ago. Maybe this because that is when I first logged into the new site, I don't know. But on the side it says "Joined: October 18, 2010." This was a problem on the beta site and they said it was fixed. Apparently it wasn't.
6.There is no longer an easy to find out how and why you recieve badges and reputation. On the old site, if you clicked on the number it took you to your reputation (or badge, etc.) stream and if you clicked on the picture it took you to a page explaining what reputation, badges, and learning points were and what they did for you on the site. (The last part being specifically for reputation.) I can no longer find this page. I found it very useful for when I couldn't figure out why I recieved a certain badge.

Here, try to strikeout this way.
Can we do strikeout and underline still?
Strikeout works but they remove the < u>underline< /u> html tags.
Allow me to close this thread, lovely, please find my thread on compilation of feedback and problems here, please add any thoughts or ideas there, thanks.
