    Yes - I think that from the early feedback so far, this is the one feature that many people dislike - and is fairly clearly a retrograde step. Why? Because it is making people 'suspicious' and reluctant to check out others profiles - and so not using the system in the way I'm sure Franck intended.

    Apart from that there are some positive changes - so yes - credit to Franck!

    Meanwhile can the profile view change be backed out?

    Thanks.

    Re: Update to Forum Software.

    I'm seeing a lot of new threads set-up by "classified advertisements" - is this just a glitch? or will this be ongoing?

    What do you do if someone asks to be your friend?

    I'm not sure I need all the added stuff in profiles...

    Is there a mobile friendly layout available yet?

    If you click on your public profile you can see who's visited it in a box bottom right hand side of screen

    Using Quick Links, go to Contacts & Friends. You need to click the box next to the avatar (of the request) and then save changes (your friends are also visible on the profile page)

    I'm not getting access to the Chat system. Although I'm logged in it asks me for my username and password but then doesn't seem to take them.

    Click "Blogs" at the top of the page (it's between the Forum Rules and FAQ links). Then there's an option to "Post to your blog" on the left of the screen.

    Hope that helps - I've never tried it myself!

    I do not see it. Is it a Silver feature?

    I'm possibly even lazier.

    So what I did is right clicked on the New Posts link and added it as a Favourite (or Bookmark, depending on which browser I'm using).

    Then I can always access it from the menu at the top of the screen.

    For added geekiness and speed you can work out the keystrokes to get to that menu option too.

    I just logged out & I can still see the "Blogs" link.

    However, when I click it there's no option to post to the blog anymore, but there is the following text:

    Benefits of Silver membership: - View what everyone is up to on the 'Who's online page, be invisible on the Forum, Create your own Blog, Remove Google Adverts, Filter new posts to avoid certain areas (e.g. Fun & Games, Chit Chat, Geek corner, etc...) when searching new posts, choose a custom avatar and have a Signature! Join today from as little as £6.00
    So I think the answer is yes!

    Could even set it as your home page after all it's the only url of any importance (for a very broad definition of importance...)
