Nantucket and Bob, I'd stop complaining if the yuku administrators addressed all my complaints meaningfully and respectfully. Sometimes the answer is only
"This is a documented bug" - not much help! The fact is, I'm going to have to buy a new computer sooner than I'd planned to, because this one
(Mac G3 iBook) won't support a browser adequate for yuku. (In a post that I can't find now, someone suggested other browsers. Thank you. However, one
of our admins has Netscape and can't use it here. I tried to download Opera and couldn't.) The G3 isn't so antique that you can't still buy a
used one from a dealer. Presumably some people out there still have them.
Yes, the redirect from ezboard works. Google skills aren't the problem. I'll restate the problems in detail, since my posts above don't seem to have communicated them clearly. (1) Some browsers can use Google but can't use yuku. A person with such a browser who clicks on the link at Google will go to a page that represents the Tinnitus Support board but isn't usable. Most text is missing. That page is a dead end. (2) Assuming that a new visitor has a modern browser, here's the second obstacle. We don't know what the TSMB directory looks like to a person who has no history with ezboard or yuku; similarly for a person who was a member of ezboard forums that are still on ezboard. My directory always says I've been upgraded to yuku, please log in. Does the directory have the login fields? Does it require a new person to create an account? We want visitors to be able to read the Support forum before they need to decide whether to join something.
