Regarding "re re re" OP

Can those of you who can control the subject line snip some of those "re re re"s? I, unfortunately, can't control the subject line of anything except new posts like this one. Snipping old messages (except the one you're responding to), would help, too.

Thanks,
Carol

Carol again:

Aargh. That should be OT, not OP, in the subject line. Can't fix that, either! Dagnabit.

I wondered about that. My iPad and computer show the messages pretty much as usual, with the exception of font size. Some come in huge and others are minute, and at times, in one post. Long ago, I think AJ suggested we change the title of the subject, if we were starting a new thread. That didn't bother me, but the RE: over and over and over does. But as long as all these marvelous posts keep on coming, I am a happy Ricardian camper! Pamela

Yes..that strange isn't it. everything is fine on my IPad but if I visit the forum on my MacBook...it's blooming awful. I would go as far to say I would have to part company with the forum if that was the only means I had available. It's just a nightmare to post or read the messages in that format. I really couldn't be doing with it...what a shame it was changed for the worse. Eileen

Yes ! My Kindle is fine, but on my super duper hi spec laptop, I have nothing but problems with Yahoo. Unfortunately I hate typing on my Kindle.

Carol responds:


I wonder if the rationale is that "no one" is using PCs or Macs anymore, so they're formatting for "portable devices" or whatever the proper term is. iGoogle is shutting down based on that same false assumption, so now I have to figure out a way to create a new home page with the same handy devices (calendar, calculator, weather, translator, etc.). Thanks a lot, Google! Are you and Yahoo involved in some sort of conspiracy against those of us who don't text and who use a cell phone to call people? On top of that, Yahoo locked me out, as I think it did Jessie. I had to change my password *and* use a different browser! If it's no the government controlling our lives (U.S. Congress government shutdown and threatened default), it's the Yahoos and the, er, Googlians?


Rant over for the moment.

I'm at wit's nether end over Yahoo...and not just the Forum, but their *entire* Email system. What used to be so easy and pleasant to use has become nightmarish - and virtually overnight! Doesn't help that we're out of town, all week, and depending upon the WiFi at our B&B.
Argh!!!Judy
