Announcement Welcome To The New BYC!

[DwayneNLiz]

I found most, but 0 content (Previous posts) and 0 photos (I saw where this is still ongoing process). Will all previous posts be inaccessible as a list?

Will losing all access mean all the great info I've bookmarked will lead me to "files not found" when I click the bookmark?

Sorry, I do NOT handle change well....

they arent working right now because the domain name backyardchickens.com is not active, once it is active your book marks *should* work again

I'm new here and wanted to join to ask a question about my Bantam chicken. She keeps laying eggs and has laid 23 so far. I don't know if she can hatch that many.

is she broody?

I like the format a lot! But it will have take some getting used to.

@Nifty-Chicken or anyone else who can help me: is there a thread where we're supposed to report problems? It seems most of my old posts before like 2015 didn't transfer or maybe are hidden? Some did but I don't think most did. Not that it really matters or would really be such a bad thing that all my dumb awkward posts from when i was 15 didn't transfer but it's just the fact i cant get them if i ever wanted to that's bothering me and my OCD/anxiety

On the old BYC, when someone with a lot of badges, Staff or other clout, gave you an ovation, you got extra ovations added. This is not being carried over here, so all those "extras" have been removed, hence your lower ovation count. So now here on the new BYC, when you get a "Like", it's 1 like.

Oh! I thought the current "likes" came from the old "ovations received".

Thanks

they do but they arent 'weighted' anymore
now any like you receive is 1 point whereas before if a gfm or ppm gave you one it gave you more than 1 point

Yes they are. But you have less Likes/ovations on this current system because the extra ovations added have been now removed since likes don't work in the same way.

Well, I like having unlimited likes!

 

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

Are they really unlimited?! I was always afraid I'd use all mine up on the old site and not have any left if I ran across a really good post, so I rarely ever gave them out!
