I hate it!!! Can't find some of my posts from last night, can't respond to an individual post, no signature function, the smiley face thingies don't work, I never know which forum is going to show up when I come to the site, the list goes on and on. Did I say I hate it? Hate it, hate it, hate it........

Please put it back like it was!!! This just ain't gonna work..........

Morning John:

I agree with you 100%...doubt if I post or even look at the forum much in the future...just not fun anymore with this MESS!

Have a GREAT day!

I can log on from iPhone but not work or home puter - poopoo

I'll check back in a few days to see if bugs are being worked out.

Shame - not being ugly, but I think sales will be affected.

Thanks to the folks that maintained the former forum.

Try using the url: http://biggreenegg.vanillaforums.com - it allowed me to use logon via my ipad and firefox at home.

i hate it too. wonder if anyone gave any thought to egg sales this time of year, the forum wont help the way it is, this change should maybe have happened gradually in the winter i would think

@FrankfromHouma :

Waiting for my Handle to get changed to WPB... as one of the folks who maintained the former forum, you are most welcome.

Well, like it or hate it, it is probably here to stay. So far my main problem is, in the last two days I have sent four e-mails to the promotions@biggreenegg.com address asking for some help; absolutely no response so far. Doesn't exactly raise the bar very high for customer service

Don't thing I'll be stopping by much if the new format remains. Seems a shame to destroy something that had been so much to so many for so long. Oh well, I guess this is progress is some persons eyes.

John,
I'm with you .......hate, hate, hate.
I think I'm just going to just sign off while I still have a lick of sanity left.
WHAT A MESS. Nothing like the new guys coming in to "fix" that which doesn't need fixin'. Sure hope BGE management didn't pay to have this done. If they did, I'm concerned for what the future holds.

how do I get back to the old forum!

hornhonk · August 2011

Florida Grillin Girl said it best "The warm and fuzzy feeling is gone". The forum used to be fun, now its a chore.

HungryMan · August 2011

Wayne. If you ever see this. Thank you for the past work.

PhilsGrill · August 2011

Looks like I will be recommending Primo Grills since their forum is now superior.

Weekend Warrior · August 2011

I totally agree with the other posters, but know it won't do me a damn bit of good to cry about it. I hate this format. May as well be on facebook.

fishlessman · August 2011

if this is what facebook looks like, yikes. my sister went to facebook and doesnt aswer the phone any more, told everyone you could only reach her there hahahaha. hey sis, you out there

Mickey · August 2011

This is bad.
Wayne did they take it away from you?
Can you take it back?
Can we do anything?
I don't want to even grill.
I can only use my iPhone.

Come on John, everybody hates it right now but maybe in a couple of years they will have worked the kinks out and it will once again appeal to us olde pharts.

Like all things new, it ain't comfortable. I just wish they had kept the old Forum up and running while they worked the kinks out of this one. Apparently, they decided not to do that and don't plan to go back no matter how bad it is.

Let's just cool it (cool would be a wonderful thing here in Texas) and see what happens. If we don't like it I'm sure someone among us will set up a comfortable site to switch to.

Oh lookie, it's already 5:00 here at the Chicken Ranch.

rums a good idea, so is some applepie moonshine. would it be a good idea to drink heavily then post whats really on our minds hahahaha theres a reason i dont post at night :)

FlaPoolman · August 2011

agree with most of the posts,, maybe I'll check in once a week or so but still not sure why because unless I want to lookup an old recipe it's useless. If you need me send a email because I'll never find something directed toward me here. I'm going over to Bobby's and maybe check out some of the other forums that I never cared for in the past. I think they may be a little more appealing now.

@hungryman You're most welcome... it's a sad day for WMK and myself... especially considering that the concept of the Eggfest, the Plate Setter, and a forum for BGE were all fruits from the fertile mind of Bill Miller. Thank you Bill, and RIP.

Howdy, Stranger!
