    It would be nice to have printers and printing. Now it's buried in operating systems.

    Sigma forum? I was intending to resume posting in the Sigma forum, but has dprevived discontinued it? I cannot find it. This therad/forum structure is hard to navigate., even for Canon cameras. (My cameras include Canon 5DS too). I enjoyed reading some of the posters in the Canon 5DS forum, but where is that one also?

    The sigma forum is still there. I don't understand why you find it hard to navigate. There's basically one forum per manufacturer (if still making cameras). If you'd read the past posts here, you would know that I've combined threads and nothing has been lost.

    Cheers

    If someone is not signed in, views are limited. I looked under all forums, didn't see it. All subcategories, didn't see it. Threads, didn't see anything. Finally found a Canon weekly thread to post in , after signing in. Apparently my former sign in cancelled out.

    Edited my original post to change wording after I found Sigma forum still exists, but no one has posted recently. You replied to an older wording I believe. Sorry I have not had the opportunities to follow all the discussions here about rearrangements and how - to's.

    Fellows certainly want things all North Korean like. You walk straight or we shoot you, kinda.

    Left out Jim's quote in my reply. No idea why. I'll try again

    Picked up that gig again, eh. Pay any better?

    Moderation still Kim Jong Un like or have the new owners moved moderation away from that? Wouldn't ask that question over there, but I'll throw it out here. I see the rules are still one rule only, sub-divided about 20 times and still leaves a lot of room for misuse.

    Someone is sharing their account with me over there so I'm not there as much but from what I have seen it is very much quieter there now with only a small fraction of the pre-"closure announcement" activity.

    I doubt the mods have much to do their now but it's definitely still a much more level playing field here.

    I ask because I saw this thread locked in the Z forum.

    www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4724137

    Really nothing of any consequence in the thread, if something had been removed, no reason based on what's left to shut it down, not even a swipe at Nikon from what I see.

    I'm just not interested in getting caught up in that bs again.

    A post of mine was censored recently. It was about telephoto compression and had nothing out of line. My NK minder is still breathing down my neck.

    That was my concern. Not that I have much interest in being there anyway.

    Yeah I've noticed quite a few threads locked / deleted / or posts within deleted on dpreview.com lately. They just cannot help themselves.

    Hi,

    Well, what gets moved to The Dump here, gets locked there.

    If people don't start belittling others, in this forum or mentioning people in others, then we have no issues over here.

    Hey Alan, still no notification system on here? The site is really difficult to use without one. Hopefully soon...Also what is with the PM system? You get notification of a PM but it takes you to the first page of the conversation, not the latest? It is nonsensical, several have messaged me about this issue - it would be good to get this resolved too.

  • Sept. 1, 2023, 12:27 p.m.

    Notifications will come with the next version of Misago. That is planned as one of the earliest updates we want to do.

    Yes, I've noticed the issue with messages and it not taking you to the latest. I thought it was just me until you mentioned it. I'm not sure why people are messaging you and not me. I'll get it checked out.

    Alan, when I say people are messaging me about it, I meant in passing. Like we are chatting about something and they bring up the two problems I mentioned etc. Dpreview has a good blueprint of how to do things logically in that sense with the PM system and notifications etc.

  • Sept. 1, 2023, 1:27 p.m.

    We have a PM system. I am on here at least once every day, so I normally pick things up quickly. But getting bugs fixed depends on others - and they are very busy with other things at the moment. I hope to have some timescales on when things may happen in a week or so.

    Notifications - yes, it's broken, but it will be re-enabled in the next version of Misago, which we hope to update here this month (September). But, as you know, things can get delayed.
