Not sure if there is a problem martin, but when I quote and then write a response sometimes the response isn't showing up.

Sorry can't reproduce that, any particular post/topic?

Check the post you think the text isn't there, are you sure you replied at the end of the quote, as sometimes you need to scroll down to get to the end of a quote in the reply box.

On the Milner Novella thread, the last post I made just shows up as a quote, without the text I wrote. Not sure if it was something I did or not.

Go back and look at that post, did you write

"Not in my opinion, I don't rate Wright-Phillips at all, I'd rather give Albrigton a go. I rate Downing over Wright-Phillips aswell. He's not needed."

Which would indicate, you didn't go down to the bottom of the post you were quoting.

The server clock is incorrect at the moment, so hang on for that.

When you press quote the cursor doesn't go to the end of the quote itself, like it did on the previous forum, but to the bottom of the box in the "Quick Reply" section, meaning you have to double check and move the cursor down. I know it's only a small matter in the grand scheme of things, but it's a bit annoying. Can that be changed?

I've had a play in profile settings and put the quick reply as off for default, that seems to have done the trick.

I also like that I can increase the amount of posts per page, it reduces the amount of pages for a thread (eg, I have 25 per page so the Transfer thread is currently 341 pages) and therefore less likely that there'll be a big jump in pages whilst I'm offline.

Like most people I'm sure it'll take me a while to get used to it and figure it out, but it's looking good. As always Martin, thanks for the hard work you (and the rest of the team) have put in.

Interesting! It'll take a bit of time to adjust I guess! Before long we'll be used to it...

Overall, I like it, but it would be nice if new posts were a bit more obvious. I liked the old claret diamonds.

And it would also be nice if when you click on the '...' when expanding the page numbers, that it either expanded all page numbers at once, or at least expanded them backwards from the last page, rather than forwards from the first. If that makes sense.

For those of us that have been around over 10 years, the join date was irrelevant anyway - we are on the umpteenth different forum now.
