    There are whole threads missing. For example, there was a discussion I started about TRVs and balancing the system. Lots of really good answers and points. Now it is gone.

    When did you start that thread? I explained that we were going to lose some threads during the migration but some kept posting anyway.

    I did not see the explanation. I think I posted yesterday and then several folks added to it. Sorry, mostly am sitting int Strictly Steam, so did not see any announcements. It is what it is, I asked unanswered questions in a new thread today.

    Don't click the "New" button next to "share this" and think you're gonna comment. It opens a dialog box, and I couldn't figure out how to close it. Whiz that I am.

    If you click on your screen outside of the box it should close for you.

    Hi Dan,
    Thanks! Is it possible to post a response to a statement anywhere, or only at the end.

    Only at the end, but you can refer back to that person.

    Or you can quote what the person said so everyone knows what you are responding too. I like this method better because it keeps all posts in order top to bottom, but gives reference to what the other person said within your post. The quote button button is under ever post that anyone makes along with all the other buttons for agree disagree etc. Again I am really liking this new format!

    RSS is now turned on and any reader will recognize it. I'm using Feedly and it works like a charm. Thanks.

    Am I the only one that cannot get pictures to expand at all? They list as high resolution but all I can get are the tiny previews. I tried both the latest version of Chrome and IE 11

    There are tabs that link the pics near the bottom of the post. Once you open the pic, you can enlarge it.
