Rants Raves and Stupid Shit in Seattle.

[QUOTE=SayOcean;6885105]I believe they mentioned that TDL would not be part of the migration, which we can see why now. Yeah, I just use the bookmark feature as my TDL now.[/QUOTE]Someone post a link? I can't even open it my old way?

[QUOTE=SayOcean;6885105]I believe they mentioned that TDL would not be part of the migration, which we can see why now. Yeah, I just use the bookmark feature as my TDL now.[/QUOTE] My whole TDL's gone. For fucks sake. They had 1 job. Fucking incompetent cyber pimps.

I can't believe they thought that board layout was a good idea. It sucks! I would hate to be a provider relying on that board because she is going to have a much harder time getting the attention she needs for business. The board had a pretty good thing going but right now it is ruined!

1. Is super slow for me.

2. Difficult to navigate.

3. TDL are gone.

4. Alerts, vouches and reviews are difficult to find.

5. Difficult to scan reviews and scan provider ad postings. Maybe it's just my eyes but when I'm looking I find it very hard to find which ad is attached to the provider name. And the pictures are so small they don't come out very well. No way anybody is going to click through every single post and read them. Especially with this slow site.

Also Alerts / notifications don't appear to work.

Reviews seemed to have disappeared if you click a provider, but if you click a hobbyist's reviews, they show up.

PMs seemed to have returned from deletion and cluttered up everything as they're now 'conversations'. I had to 'leave conversations / delete' a ton of them as my inbox was full.

Ultimately it does seem very unfavorable towards both providers and hobbyists looking at ads. Oh well, as long as the bookmark / follow feature works ok.

[QUOTE=Bruster66;6885230]Please post a link.[/QUOTE]You just click a profile and then click on the Follow and Bookmark buttons.

They then show up on your profile in the appropriate sections. I'm not sure what the difference between the two are though considering notifications don't appear to be working.

[B]Following[/B]: You would receive notifications whenever that individual does something (posting, updating, etc.).

[B]Bookmark[/B]: Is just saving their profile in a list in which you can organize by using tags / labels. So maybe you want to give certain providers the tag / label of 'body rub', so you can type in 'body rub' in your bookmarks and filter to providers you've bookmarked and given that tag.

[QUOTE=DatoDaddio;6884846]I hope they're not done updating the board, because it's really hard to navigate. I can't seem to find the girl's alerts and reviews either.[/QUOTE]It suck before. They kick me off. No reason.

[QUOTE=SayOcean;6885042]Damn, while this new update looks nicer, navigation and functionality is so much worser. It was so easy to look at a provider's reviews / alerts. I don't even know if previous reviews / alerts was part of this migration either because I can't find them on any provider's profiles.

It shows number of vouches but no reviews related to the provider.[/QUOTE]I found a few providers with a few reviews listed, but it looks like the threads got messed up the same way that PMs did. It seems like they still have a lot of data to load / fix.

I'm not seeing any speed issues. And media / pics seem to load much faster than before, though you only see thumbnails in the ads now.

TIP: Filtering by city can be done now by just clicking the city in the ads list. A drop-down on the right lets you edit filters.

The biggest issue for me as that my TamperMonkey (browser add-in) script no longer works. That let me flag a provider's ads in-place with colors to indicate service level and desirability, etc. It was a kind of TDL overlay on the ads page!

And all previous links to providers, ads and reviews are now broken!

Because the site is so hard to navigate, I'm including a lot of direct links:

[B]TDL[/B]: Done Gone. They did warn about this via a message posted a week before the actual rollout. It's replaced with Bookmarks ([URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/bookmarks[/URL]). There is some kind of tagging feature. Personally, the "Friends and Contacts" option (below) seems more useful.

[B]Ignore list[/B] Also supposed to go away, but it is still there, just invisible. To make it visible (thanks HelloThar): Add someone NEW to your ignore list. It will repopulate everything you had earlier. Direct link: [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/ignored[/URL].

[B]Friends and Contacts[/B]: Are now here: [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/following[/URL].

[B]Private Messages[/B]: [I]all[/I] of your previous messages, including the deleted ones, especially the automatically generated "TDL" list have been restored. To send new PMs, you must delete them, and [I]buckle up[/I], it's weird. Click the select button. A menu will open on the bottom of the screen. Tap "select all" (which only does 20). In the dropdown, select "Leave Conversation. " You will be prompted again. I don't know it makes a whole lot of difference what you choose. Repeat until your mailbox is empty. [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/conversations/[/URL].

[B]Account Details[/B] - All profiles have the same options for likes and dislikes. If you make changes, you cannot save them without providing a phone number. [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/account-details[/URL].

[B]Preferences[/B] have changed and it's hard to find. The direct link is here: [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/preferences[/URL] The search options "Relevance" is maddeningly broken, try Default or Most Recent.

[B]Privacy[/B] - I'd recommend going through this section carefully. [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/privacy[/URL].

My password doesn't work and it says no account is associated with the email.

Guess my account from 2007 is just gone. I should be very upset but with how shitty that place is now I don't really give a fuck.

Looks to me like TNA just screwed all of their paying and advertising customers over.
