i can see where a goodly number of respondents felt that as SI members, they had no choice but to take what was given to them, so they might as well try to at least provide positive input in the hope of influencing the next version. That is my case. I think you have characterized the situation well. I have made positive comments about the beta version but they should not be interpreted as a vote for beta vs classic. Indeed it is "ok I have to live with this so why not make the best of it and try to make it work". If this thread is at all representative the 90 percent figure is not accurate. Users are trying to help so perhaps 90 percent of the members would try to make constructive criticism. If the heart and sole of SI is the message boards then why change the message board format with less than convincing evidence? I find it somewhat unbelievable that I am in a 10 percent minority. The beta site may be technically superior to the Classic site. I have not found any significant improvement that relates to the message boards. It seems like Go2net does not have a feel for the heart and sole of SI. Zeuspaul
