Welp, here it comes, and a safe and happy holiday season to everyone first off.

Now to the issue at hand(I actually wrote it up late last night and slept on it first), but what the hell.....

Kerry, thanks for the post. I did receive it, but I was traveling, and as time is short, stopped reading it as soon as I became disallusioned.

Tom:

If SI actually turns off True Classic without addressing these user issues, I will end up migrating

This should also be addressed to bryanB. who sent me a private that has fallen off my list in the folders. But his *MAJOR* gist was that the bookmarked subjects with new messages would load first. As you have pointed out, they DO NOT! Que paso Bryan?

I did go to the new unimproved link that John provided me in that one post. and as rare as assumptions are, it *is* as it appeared. Those who participated in the private emailing of the revision may or may not agree with me, but it is even less than Classic with the same top lable. IT SUCKS.

It still takes WAY too much time for my subjjects page to load, thanks bryan(and please send me the link to the private where you told me different- I will post that one public!!(though I have never posted a private message in public-), unless you want to post/address it.

It is *NOT* the way you promised/said it would be. You want to stroke the populis, go ahead, just don't do it to me. I stand by what I say and I expect others to do the same!

I will also continue to use the True Classic until SI turns it off.

Me too, and when I find I have no choice, color me gone(regardless if I'm not all ready #1 on the "ignored" feature). It is still way to cumbersome to navigate, my subjects page sucks, and the list of posts on any/all threads is a friggin mess. Ah, I remember when life was simple, or at least SI was enjoyable

Yeah, I'm POed. and I don't care what the other gaurdians think of the *improved* Classic, I think it sucks(2).

My book marks and everything are smack with the new interface with such minor adjustments it makes me want to vomit.

SI has done us,(those who made it what it is) *WRONG*, and do not even give a crap. Like I asked in one of my previous messages, "Hey Brad, do you even sign on any more or even give a rat's ass?"

Let's face it folks, GNET bought SI with specific intentions, and we are now seeing the implementations. and it's all a bunch of toro mierda and we're the ones they are making wade through it.

If you want to make a difference, just say NO I don't care if I'm ignored, or lose some of the other stuff SI has to offer. I'm outta' here.

We all saw the writing on the wall, and Josef(RIP)(https://www.siliconinvestor.com/profile.aspx?userid=4275571) was the first to stand up for what he believed. Now I see lots of others not posting as much either(save toe gurus, who, btw I don't give two peices of mierda about)

This was all a bunch of mierda played up to B.S us into thinking SI cares about their membership, and perhaps/probably most have accepted it. Myself I *WILL NOT*

So to my foes, I'm getting closer and closer every day. And to my many friends, when, if that day comes, I bid you a fond fare well, I will truely miss you.

p.s., and sorry to bore those folks who haven't *ignored* me yet.

I have tried all of the new versions. They are significantly slower and put a limit on the number of bookmarked threads that I can access.

I addressed this on the beta thread(#reply-11881705), but never got a response from bryan or any other mgmnt(dodging another short comming, or just something SI/GNET thought unimportant? I also mentioned in/during our emailing discussions with/to the gaurdians(what a pathetic label), and got no reply. I have over three, close to five hundred threads bookmarked(albiet for various reasons, and don't read them all or even most) and took the time to count how many are permitted on the beta version. Mine stopped in the "E"s, which accounted for about 200 threads(give or take a few). Never got a respobnse. What jives *BRYAN*

pps, Hey *BRYAN* like my usage of the *, seems to be a favorite of yours. Who ever's brain child the SI beta is should be fired...*immediately* take your crap and go else where.

ppps. Regardless, thanks a lot Brad, Jeff and Jill, I got my $75 worth(for my life time membership) over the past two years if not in this post alone! But If Santa would bring me a gift, I think you(brad) know what it would be). But I know you're not Santa. Probably not even one of his helpers any more.

Okay, anyone think I'm a jerk, feel free to blast the hell out of me, I've spoken my piece of mind, but wish it was peace of mind.
