Going down the drain...

The forums seem to get worse every da

y and nothing is done about it, like the automatic

carriage returns, but now they have surpassed themselves,

content is no longer displayed, you get a blank message, but when editing that message the content is there.

When is something done about this crappy software?

    It's not only this forum's who's going down the drains, it's adobe as a whole. This company went from being my favourite to one of my most hated in 10 years. Photoshop is becoming utter stupid, illogical garbage, eating 10 times more ressources for god knows what, thx to pointless updates that are only made to justify adobe employe's salaries. I've been working for 20 years with this software and today it's the WORSE it's ever been. ADOBE, GET YOUR **** TOGETHER AND PONDER THIS : IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT. Want to fix stuff ? Start with your TERRIBLE text tool...want other ideas? I spent the whole day saving images for the web and had to change GIF to JPEG for EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM, because now the "optimised" window is set to GIF by default (and don't teach me how to configure the settings for ctrl + shift + alt + S, I've been doing this for 20 years, and it's never been that utterly nonsensical). PS went to being one of my favourite software to my pet peeve.

    I reported that to Jive on Nov. 8. They refuse to acknowledge the

    report. I can only presume that means it is not a bug but a feature.

    It may be

    time to cross over to the software used by DVInfo

    .net whi

    ch always works without the carriage returns and shows all content.

    Jive 'features' I can easily live without. Jive is aboslutely sh*t if they can't solve this. Is there no way to go back to what we had two years ago?

    Can anybody explain how you got the complete text (I did not

    check it exactly, but it looks OK to me) and when clicking

    on the original post you get a blank as in my attached screenshot? I don't get it.

    This Jive software sure is moody...


    Harm,

    I was able to see the full post, and I think that I was still on IE 7 then. Haven't looked on Chrome, but that has gotten rid of the phantom line-breaks and I can once more attach via the "camera" icon. Now, I just have to learn Chrome, but that keeps me off the streets, out of the pool halls and hopefully out of trouble.

    Good luck,

    Hunt

    BTW, I linked to that article (as I do with most of the equipment articles) in some other fora. Hope that all can see it completely, when they navigate to it. So far, I have not gotten any complaints about incomplete pages, or busted links. If I do, I'll share them with you.
