The "remember me" checkbox is pretty useless, since I still get logged out every couple days. I've been really enjoying this community for the past 20-ish years, but this forum is becoming a bit too much of a chore to use. The current experience is just such a monumental step backwards.

100%  It's better than nothing for sure, but I miss easily being able to browse on Tapatalk.  It made posting pictures so much easier.  The captchas are ridiculous on this and it is so frustrating to keep getting logged out.

I kind of feel like at this point the forums are probably an afterthought, especially with Robo gone.

Agreed. I really miss Tapatalk. I used to browse Fwoosh throughout the day, everyday. But it’s a chore now. I get logged out automatically if I even open another tab on my phone. And then I have to go through the captchas all over again which usually fail in loading at least once. It’s a frustrating user interface. I still love this community. I just wish the interface was as easy to use as it was in the recent days before last summer.

Add me to the "awaiting for moderation" group. 😐

I don't use the app, but I experienced 2 extremes in relation to people who did while I used the forum on a browser on a laptop. Either I never saw images posted, or I would get hit with HUGE emojiis from those using them on the app. I'm talking take up the forum layout and push everything down big.

On a positive note, my phone has stopped crashing and locking up multiple times a day while browsing the site.
Progress!

Just about all of my posts are "awaiting moderation". Is there any way to get around that issue?

Is there a way to block users on here?

There is not. It's been asked about before. By me. And others.

Glad to see the forum back up.  Just a heads up to the site owners, if you aren't already aware, email's don't seem to be working yet.  I'm not getting emails for already subscribed threads or to confirm subscription of a new thread.   It also looks like in-board notifications of already subscribed threads are not working yet either.  I hope these are on your, no doubt long, list of things to resolve. 

Thanks in advance!

Think it was pushing 3-4. You can sorta track some of the date gaps in threads

Edit. Gap seems to be 4/19-5/15

Thank you team Fwoosh for getting the site back up online!

Would have dread to think what would happen to most of the community members 😜

Very happy to see my favorite place on the web back! Big thanks to all who made it happen.

Also, when I logged back in I only had to do one captcha (instead of the two I've had to do since the remodel) - we're already making improvements!

Love having the forums back! Thank you, Fwoosh!

One question—I don’t see a sign-in button anymore at the top of the forum. Am I missing something? I have to click on a thread and then sign-in from there.
