The current forum format has a major flaw. while posts in the 39 major forums may get spoted as they may show up in the recent activity. there now is absolutely no visibility to manufacturer forums or the hundreds of other forums not in the top lists. Have to ask.....WTH happened to the prior website format? specifically the "todays activity" filter?

Hey Tim and Kiter, while you are at it, you know you can no longer simply navigate to any of the manufactures forums https://forums.iboats.com/Boats/

unless you have an active thread, you can no longer get there unless you are savvy enough with google.

please fix

Yeah, Scott. It keeps flipping between your screen capture and normal.

When it messes up, Working doesn't go away. Even with a refresh.

hey iboats_tim , Kiter007 , what is with the minuscule fonts in the forums? the main forum pages are fine, however the individual threads have microscopic font....... us grey beards are getting harder to see.

hate to say it, however it is obvious that neither of you two actually use the forums

It goes haywire quite often and I'm just learning to live with it.

I haven't received any notifications of postings for the last couple months. Have to login to see listing in message box

same here. havent had a notification for months

I estimated the forum changed between 3 different variations of format at least 40 times in the last 48 hours.
