Easy, guy. I don't use this site for my portfolios, though I have followed some posted on boards. Something unclear to me is just what is happening in this changeover, so unclear, that way, is what is affordable and not. Heck, makes no sense to me, and I'm just trying to get a clue. I'm grandfathered. I always have used this site for the stock talk, and general talk. Though in the last few years, the stock talk is less, imo. There is some sanity to it lacking in other sites, even when it is low. I found my best stock talk here. I hope we can keep that up, and increase it. I just want "ignore" back. :) I don't mind using two sites, one for this, and one for portfolios. I'm just not sure what is happening in this changeover is clear? If it was made so, I missed it. Which I do a lot. Miss things a lot, that is. And, if possible without a big deal, it would be nice to clear selected boards of messages. But that's a small thing. I'm already get used to going to the extra clicks needed. jp

I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH YOU ELIMINATING THE PORTFOLIOS DUE TO COST. I guess my problem is with you creating a system for retrieving what is already stored in portfolios but only a;;owing high level members to retrieve this. You are already going thtough all the effort it seems like it would be a shame to hold this from members who in the past used and supported your site. I can truly understand the frustration but don't feel it is correctly directed.

Personally, I don't see why free members should get any privileges at all. For those of us who paid, it's kind of a "hmmm, how come I paid if I can get this stuff for free" thing. Let 'em read for free, but make 'em pay to post is my thinking. Anyway...can someone help me figure out why my Subject Marks page is in gigantic print, while the actual posts are not? I may be old but I'm really not ready for the big print version yet. And, will we ever get the preview page back so that we can fix our typos before posting? T'anks, Siber
