Incidentally, does anyone know what happened to the leagues?  Is Nirvana still about?  Haven't seen him for a while (though tbf I've only been around on weekends).

I'm not a fan of whingers either Crags, but most of the complaints have been valid, and with a few exceptions constructive.

We have no choice but to give Betfair time to get it right. Something they should have done through proper testing before launching it.

In the meantime, we have no choice but to quiz elsewhere. Quite simple really.

The Leagues are on hold. They rely on speed. The new reply box function is excellent as far as that's concerned. A real time-saver. But the Refresh speed and Posting speed make it impossible to resume the Leagues at the moment.

As I see it Befair probably think the forum is 95% as they would like it, problem is when they have it at 100% it still will not be as good for quizzes as it once was though in all other aspects it will probably be fine.

Tommy, Fishy and Momm are all sound as a pound crags.  It is just frustrating for them and others to see everything change seemingly for the sake of change.  And in terms of quizzes it is catastrophic.  Whether or not betfair care about the quizzes or not is another matter, but they have been ruined on here - and this other forum is the only way.

Crags

How come the refresh on the main site is 10 times faster than the refresh on here?

When you press submit, the botttom left hand corner says loading info from a few places
By:
Baggers
When: 30 May 10 00:22
It says

waiting for community.betfair.com

then transferring data from community.betfair.com

Another reason for slowness is the drop downs

Do we really need:

Oldest/Newest 1st
5/10/20/40

Take the above two functions away and voila, faster forum

When: 30 May 10 01:23
Baggers, the main site and the forum are not married not even In-laws, more like third cousins twice removed.

Anyway, I suggest that you should use one of the advised browsers-IE 8 works fine for me- and also try using a prayer mat rather than a mouse mat.

HTH.

Why on earth is Betfair recommending IE8 for the Forum when the graphics for the buttons and the speech bubble are still screwed up in IE8?
Must be so simple to fix that yet it's been like it from day 1.

And why is Betfair recommending IE8 for the Forum and Firefox for the Main Site?
Does Betfair expect us to use a different browser for each?
