They finally did it!
 
:ohdear:
I see the powers that be have withdrawn the old version of TOTV.
R.I.P.

Do not like this new version.

stanley 05-27-2021 12:23 PM

I'm still on the old version?

retiredguy123 05-27-2021 12:29 PM

I'm still on the old version.

vintageogauge 05-27-2021 02:49 PM

I'm still on the old version and I hope it sticks around

ureout 05-27-2021 02:57 PM

MrFlorida 05-27-2021 02:59 PM

Old version here.

Topspinmo 05-27-2021 03:41 PM

On the old version right now. I too not fan of the new version.

New Englander 05-27-2021 03:51 PM

I'm on the old version. I really dislike the new one.

Two Bills 05-27-2021 04:16 PM

I have lost my 'click here for old version' option!
Gone!
It is no longer!
It has slipped this mortal coil!
It is an ex-version!
:shocked:

Am back on the old version because I found a link to it one one of the more obscure pages I had to surf around to find after I had been kicked to the new version! Hope you can find it - while I don't remember what page it was - it was at the bottom of that page!

I still get that also. Maybe if you click on that there is no return back to the old? I'm afraid.....someone want to try it for me?

Kenswing 05-27-2021 06:16 PM

I somehow got switched over to the new version and am not a big fan. I no longer have the link to get back to the better version.

CFrance 05-27-2021 08:58 PM

If only they would change the screaming white background on the first page--like the New Post page. It hurts my eyes. I can't think why they had to make it so glaringly bright.

I switched to the new version because the old version wouldn't show me Grumpy Old Man's photos. I was going right back to the old version. I guess I'm stuck with the new version now.

I blame Grumpy for this!
I too had to look at his photos in new version, as the did not show in the old.

Has anyone seen this man?
I am trapped in the new version of TOTV.
I need to get back to the old version.
Any ideas how?

retiredguy123 05-28-2021 03:35 AM

Have you tried logging out and then back in? Or, using a different computer where you are not automatically logged in? The old version seems to still be available.

Thanks.
Yes tried about everything.
Other computer same.
Even tried my VPN putting me in Miami and accesing through Google.
No good.
I am trapped!!

maggie1 05-28-2021 05:01 AM

There's a new version? Really?

golfing eagles 05-28-2021 05:37 AM

This morning the "reply with quote" option seems to have disappeared, anyone else have that problem???

wrestle1 05-28-2021 05:47 AM

Eagle- My Reply w Quote is also missing

billlaur 05-28-2021 05:48 AM

OLD VERSION THE BEST:boom:

tsmall22204 05-28-2021 06:04 AM

Change, just to be changing, is not good change.

njbchbum, do you recall what kind of page it was? Like a page telling you how to navigate TOTV, somebody's thread, one of the headings at the top of the page, etc?

For others, it looks like if you hit Reply, it will automatically quote the post. Now that's an improvement!

jimkerr 05-28-2021 06:22 AM

People seem to always dislike change.

Weird I had no "reply with quote" tab either this morning, but pressed "reply" and it added your quote automatically.

I think they changed the format to "Reply" adds the quote, and "quick reply" doesn't.

Have you tried a different browser? I use the Samsung Internet browser and the MS Edge browser, but when I go to the website with the Chrome browser, it goes to the new version.

Yep, I think you're right.

Just been trying that, and no go. Still on the new one.
Will give it a try, and take to the highway if I don't get on with it.
Been fun.

NoMoSno 05-28-2021 08:25 AM

Most "modern" forum software allows users options for "skins".
I always choose a dark theme. Much easier on the eyes.

I cleared my browser history and had to re-log in to TOTV. Good version now no longer available, this is my first experience with the bad version, which $ucks out loud. Hope they make good version available again, or I could be done. This old dog does not want to learn new tricks : (

I don’t like the new version either but I guess it’s TV TOTV, I’m sure TV don’t care if you like it so I guess if we don’t, don’t use it!

I'm sure that TOTV doesn't care if you like the new version.

For the life of me it is difficult to figure out - maybe the one where I change my avatar or where I go to look up some old post - they are the only other pages I use pretty much!
