BryanB, thank you for opening a dialog on this item. It is good to see these issues being addressed.

I think that a "Real SI Simulator" operating inside the New SI would meet most people's needs. But it would be VERY important that it look and feel IDENTICAL to the Old SI - for paying members or grandfathered folk (like meeee) who have the Turn Off Ads option.

Obviously until this is addressed I and my fellow Petitioneers cannot relax our vigilance. But on all our behalf I am pleased that we can talk about it.

As a token of mutual understanding - could the statement on the log-in page be rephrased? Right now it implies that the Old SI will be available indefinitely. Replace it with language that is up-front about the temporary status of techstocks.com - and a commitment that the new SI will have a simple-to-use "Configure to Classic" feature.
Thanks,
Lather.Rinse.Repeat.
