I didn't know there was another way either. LOL!

Imp- I sometimes freak people out at work by using old DOS commands in windows, when I'm feeling too lazy to go back and forth between mouse & keyboard.

That will never be an issue as long as I have any say in the matter. BYC will always be free to everyone. While we will probably continue to add additional features for our Golden Feather Members use, the majority of new features will benefit everyone.

On a related note, thanks to our GFM's and the BYC Sponsors who keep the site free!

Well, Nifty, there's a few reasons why people are getting a little frustrated with this situation. Something changed, first of all. People don't like change. We like that you added the Show All Topics but the Show All Posts used to show the posts in topic form. The new way seems a bit uneeded anyways if you can get to the post in the thread. The results will show the same thread multiple times if you've posted there many times. The Gamers United thread, people have posted there four or five times in a row and whenever they view their posts the new way it's set up, it'll show that thread four or five times in a row.
Also, some people don't know the other ways of viewing their posts. I know how to use the URL method but some people have used the Profile way the entire time they've been a part of this website and can't get back to it.
Don't get me wrong, I love that you've added this new feature, you just need to change the View Your Posts back to the way it was.
P.S. No problem guys. If you need help with anything else, there's a few features this website has enabled but doesn't show the link to.

Crait, I think all is well now that I know to go to the bottom of the index page. Maybe all is needed is a note in the profile page for a while to let people know how to get there.

Yep, I really really like the show all topics feature. Thank You.

For sure, we definitely have found that people don't like change. We really try to make changes as easily transitional as possible. I think we underestimated how many people use the link in their profile vs. the link at the bottom of the index to view their own posts.

What I've found useful on popular forums are polls.
If you could start threads with polls in them or have a poll module on the side of the forum or something, you'd be able to get really good, rounded feedback.

I don't mind change... it's just ABRUPT change that throws me for a loop!! LOL!
Love the new features Rob... thanks for keeping the old option available, too.

Yeah..that's what I did. I will adapt
