that is one of the best things about this website. Means you dont have to go into every thread to find out what its about.

We are presently looking at optimisation.... apologies for things being omitted, but we should be back to normal soon.

Regards,
Shaun.

Only TWO things will make a worthwhile difference: MIPS & mbps..... Removing the preview will suck the servers as ScoobyNetters open each page to view it ffs!

I can live without the drop down menu but the preview one makes browsing so much easier.

I'm convinced that removing it will increse the load on the servers rather than alleviate it too.....

I too would like it back - the only place I have seen it and it is fantastic

I even find myself hovering on topics on other forums without preview waiting for a preview to the thread to come up

Yes all agree with the above.

cmon simon, a bit of warning would have been nice.

no preview, sucks big time and puts you off looking at threads (new ones) so maybe this will have the desired effect on the speed. if we all dont bother looking at threads, the site will speed up

navigation pull down menu at bottom. TBH never used it that much anyway, but I can see how many ppl like it and might start using it in the future..if you put it back !!

and the fecking ads for plus members..now that is just naughty

you know what they say, if it aint broke, stop fiddling and tinkering
