Makes more sense now!
Forum Software Change!

Is it possible to restore the old behavior when ignoring users? I used the ignore list as a flag, a note to myself that this user's posts should be taken with a grain of salt before reading. Instead of displaying the minimized posts inline, the new forum now removes them entirely (as well as quoted posts and even started threads), which can destroy discussion context. When I suspect that this has happened, I have to scroll to the bottom of each page, hunt for the link to display ignored posts, wait for the page to reflow, then find my way back to where I was reading before; it is incredibly disruptive.
No.
Ok, I'm feeling like a dolt. During the transition, I had several old "xxx" quotes in my signature that still worked like proper quotes - they appeared in the quote box, they attributed to "xxx", and they were "clickable".
I have recently discovered a far more awesome quote to use as my signature, which I would like to attribute to the original author. However, when I paste the proper code into my signature box:
Is this a design decision linked to the new software (and my prior signature simply got grandfathered in by the upgrade) or am I just doing it wrong?

... my signature drops all the code snippets and leaves only the text.

Now it's working!
Edit: actually it isn't... At least the broken part. I mistakenly tried to access the thread from trending tab on Tapatalk (the one like lightning bolt with an arrow on top) and it either give an empty thread or warn me that it can't find the thread. Accessing the thread from the latest post (or something) is working.
I tried to access a thread on another forum from the trending tab and it's working, so I believe it's still a problem on B3D forum.

Can someone explain my what's happening to me here regarding one thread?
I can see the Tegra thread in the recent posts of the forum index, but when entering the forum I can't see it in the listing. When I log out, it re-appears. This is really odd. It only happens to the Tegra thread.

I've used the forum software to view the forums as if I had your permissions and view settings, and I can't see the same thing. If you click on the link you see in the forum overview, do you get to see the contents of the thread?
And does it happen on any other sub-forums, or just the Handheld Technology one?

I can view the thread just fine via the latest link or the notifications, it's just not listed in the handheld forum. It only happens to that one thread. Also reproducible in other browsers.
