It's Too Hard !
« on: July 13, 2007, 08:51:33 AM »
Sorry to all new and old friends and fellow grumps, I am afraid I have to retire from VP.

A short friendship reluctantly finishng as I find it too hard work to post and read here. It all seems too "busy" ie complicated for me to handle. By the time I have got to the end of a whole topic, and worked out how to post,  my desire and ideas have fled.

Obviously, since I am old and technically blind others do not have my problem, but compared to the other place, I think this very worthwhile site may be more difficult to understand for the uninitiate.

Is it possible that you are trying to pack in TOO MANY additionalfeatures?

Wishing you continuous success!

I think as with any board it takes a bit of getting used to a different format is all.

Bye bye Moz!  sad24:

Sorry to hear that Moz.

I am not sure to what 'new features' you refer, but if I had a complaint about it, the writing is much smaller than the other place and I have to wear reading glasses to see it.

I could understand that might make it hard for an old codger with your problems.

As to VP being more quick-witted than the other place, all I can say is, they must have gone down hill a lot. ::)

Are you having a farewell booze-up? cloud9:

Beggars belief, but hey. Your choice.
You'd obviously be over there having  abuse hurled at you banter with some of those nice polite chappies...yes I've seen some of it Mozo.

Just be careful what alledged web sites you're visiting in future mate. They are watching your every move you know. ::)

Is there some 'preference setting' then?

Hold down the Ctrl key and roll the mouse wheel towards you, that should help you with the text size issue  whistle:

Mozo retires from the Board declaring it to be too hard to use. How does he do this?

By,  er, posting the news on the board. rubschin:

Decalring? Is that some kind of upmarket scouser graffiti Nick?  point:

I thought that strange too ? especially considering the infrequency of his posting?  rubschin:

Perhaps he was attempting to resign from the other place at the time?  ::)
