Here's what I'm doing to take away the pain of losing our old Adobe and our old forums:

It helps.

Happy Halloweeeeeen Everyone ;-)

Well, all that I can say right now, is that I am not willing to beta test any other thing remotely related to the fair forums, only to find months later that all and every user's suggestions have just been crushed by the Panzer tank that seems to be the present day way of communicating with Adobe users (and clients!).

Maybe the update tonight and the one on Sunday will make the forums better?

October 24, 2009

Do those "Updates" include the replacement of this Forum's "Moderator"?

October 24, 2009

Maybe. Then maybe us regular posters will be replaced and sent to some camp never to be seen again.

Posting is so painfully slow this morning too.

I don't see much consequences from the Community Help App for these forums. It is just a preview of the new help app that is going to manage local help files on clients.

The only long term consequences I foresee are:

  1. I expect that their search will someday add a preference so people can choose to search these forums in addition to the other resources.
  2. I hope that I will be able to obtain the code they use to login to an Adobe ID and integrate that into my app for reading these forums offline.

I wonder if it will be easier than the search function that the forums presently use.

If it were, would that be enough reason for you to use it?

Well it doesn't surprise me. And no I didn't download it either...this place is slow enough, like I want to download more slow crap.

This kinda explains why they have not went ahead with the Jive update (which will probably fix some of the problems users are seeing).

Maybe its a new way to keep people like LT out.

Yeah I have noticed that he has been on you like a wart on a Toad's...ahem...nevermind

October 23, 2009

I didn't click on nor download nothing either. Funny part was they were asking for feedback on how things look and work? Adobe did not listen to users feedback for this new and improved forum so what will make anybody think that Adobe will listen to feedback for this other new program. From what I read the only people giving advice will be community experts.

Guess non-expert posters will be put out to pasture.

Did you click on the link then click on link to test site?

Looks like they may have bought their own server farms instead of an outside party.

Anyway it looked identical to this except portal link was different.

The new help is an app that has unlimited access to your system. I did not install it.

October 22, 2009

Well yeah, it's an AIR app, but it has no more access than Photoshop does.

If there were such an application that allowed you access to these forums, and it worked correctly (it wouldn't because of the fact it has to interface with a buggy system), I'd probably be using it.
