| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | Dan Petrovic | 3/5/12 11:35 PM | Hi Susan, where can we see our point bars in the new setup? |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | luzie | 3/6/12 3:17 AM | OMG :-/ The day has come, folks, say a last farewell to usability - and hello to a bunch of absurd functions and a plethora of unitelligible buttons ... but well, you'll get used to have these new pets populate your screen for no good reason *g* >> |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | travler | 3/6/12 10:28 AM | I used to be active on the GAN forum until it moved to the groups format - and as much as I try I cannot get used to it. The page won't scroll (the posts are inside a frame thing-ee) and the post titles are so small and tightly spaced that they are h |

| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | Susan Moskwa | 3/6/12 1:43 PM | @travler Thanks for the heads-up about the spam, I'll try to locate that forum's admin to clean it up. If you can't see all the content on a page feel free to let me know what browser/OS you're using and I can let the team know. |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | travler | 3/6/12 2:30 PM | chrome/mac lion - got an email from GAN - thanks for clearing that up :-) will go 'practice' some more and see if it's any better. |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | webado | 3/6/12 5:53 PM | Most of the day (when I'm at work at least) I use an iphone .... last I'd tried it it was pretty impossible to navigate any of the already moved forums. Keyboard shortcuts on an iphone??? I shudder to think .... |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | webado | 3/6/12 5:53 PM | Wait ... doesn't the notion of a shortcut mean there's also a long cut? Well I have yet to find those .... |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | luzie | 3/7/12 12:53 AM | I've got no iPhone - and still don't know how to really navigate there. It's the unwanted, unexpected and miraculous resurrection of frames (well, don't know how to call 'em, is it Ghost frames? Pseudo frames? Wannabe frames? Newframes? Zombie frames |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | Wow_Just_Wow | 3/7/12 6:25 AM | It amazes me that with all of its engineering and design talent, Google cannot come up with something that is as functional and easy to use as a default phpBB or vBulletin installation. If the forums are the way for consumers to ask questions and ge |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | travler | 3/7/12 6:34 AM | lol - this crossed my mind. |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | 53.12north | 3/7/12 1:24 PM | Learning a bit more pa Russky and helping out on Yandex looks a better option than waiting for Google to admit the 156,000,000 operamini enabled phones.. |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | Kaleh | 3/9/12 7:28 AM | Well ... 38,836 topics now appear on the new platform (including this one.) Do you know if they are all moved yet, or if the "move" is still happening? |
| Re: We’re moving to Google Product Forums! | pink fluffy unicorns | 3/12/12 11:21 AM | I was going to moan about the new forums because honestly I can't get used to it, probably because I can't find what I'm looking for 'my discussions'. But then I realised you don't have to provide a forum. So I'm taking the moan back. |
