Default What the hell have they done to H/T

This new "format" suxs, I keep getting booted off, sometimes I can't save and paste what I have typed, I mean I can save or cut, but when I re-log in it's gone.
Getting tired of seeing, "You are not authorized" and even more tired of seeing "You are not logged in" only to find when I scroll up "welcome fcm" and this having to go back to the beginning to log off is a PITA, OK rant over. 94

Its the switch over from zerofoum to vbulltion. The new owners of h-t (Internet brands) owns vb and it was a matter of time before it would be switched over to there own server and fourms. Its been a big headache and alot of fall out from it. In the past week there has been 5 diffrent mirror sites of honda-tech popping up all over the net. Most are old members that left to start a new site that loved the zerofourm format. Read gdd here.

I lost all my subscribed topics, and when I search none of the threads older than a few days ago come up. Lost a couple of my for sale listings and had to do them over. My computer now never remembers my user name and password even though this site is allowed and set for cookies. I don't get email when I subscribe to a thread now, and it doesn't even remember threads I've subscribed to today. It is a huge pain in the butt. I kinda stayed away from HT for a couple years due to the iron fisted intolerant moderators, now it might just be the format.

Clear your cookies and restart your internet browser, it might help. Well, it did with me.

I agree it kinda sucks. But I haven't really been to this site much anyway. I only post in topics that grab my attention and there aren't very many of those.

I heard back in August 2007 about the incidents Mike & Dustin went through against each other, and have just been waiting for the zeroforum modifications to become too unmaintainable alone.
One day going to a friend's wedding, the next day ... Well, enough.

Honda-tech in the past has been one of the worst forum formats I've ever seen. The transition to vbulletin is helping, but it's still nowhere near most other forums. Check out SVTperformance.com or jeepforum.com if you want to see what a forum should look like. This site is soooo hard to navigate and actually find good, useful information. I guess it could also be the massive number of newbs, 14 year old kids, and ricers...
