Just wondering with respect to the previous thread http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=64833 and other general comments about the newish boards system.

and other general comments about the newish boards system.
No offence to cloud or anyone else that worked on it but I preferred the old system best. I mainly log on from college with a nice juicy E3 line so have no problems with bandwidth fair enough some people do, and as far as I understand it thats the main reason for the new spiffy scroll down tool bars. However normally I would hold Shift + Mouse1 and load up new windows with the various different areas such as Games/Technology/Sport etc. My point is, and I understand it might take a fair bit of effort (assuming ye deleted the old system) but would it be possible to set up a dual system where the user could choose their option when they log onto boards.ie?

It would make me happy, whatever about anyone else

Thanks for listening,

Ivan

The problem isn't bandwidth Ivan, it's load on the server, as you'll see if you look at this thread. It's is a pity it has to be this way, but it's killing the rig, which is killing Boards for everyone (including those on leased lines).
