to help us debug a few things please email "bugs@rcuniverse.com" any problems or issues you had in terms of functionality or errors on the new site. We had some speed issues we are addressing which is why we pulled the plug (you all know I'm demanding when it comes to speed!). WE are also aware of a few remaining bugs. I didn't want to have users deal with those issues so enjoy the old RCU here until we patch up the remaining issues.

thanks

marc

Hi Marc,
I was only on for a few minutes but had a pop up saying I had a PM, but nothing new was in my PM listing. Was it just a glitch or did I lose a PM? You are doing a great job, I'm looking forward to the new RCU. It does look like some guys will need some Cheese to go with their W(h)ine, though...

Ya, speed. And are the redirect ads gonna stay? If so, I'll have to go elsewhere. Just like pop-ups to me.

Later
And good luck.

While it was up I had no problem with it.

But Flyboy Dave and I were on the phone near the end of the run, he was having a lot of trouble.

Guys there are changes but i think a few ads is worth it to put up with as it pays the bills. I personally would rather go through an add or two than pay a annual fee to enjoy this great site which I would still gladly do. Marc tries hard to balance good and bad points. where else could you get all the free advice you can get from here? Local clubs usually have other guys to talk to but you are limited usually in their knowlege of certain aspects of this hobby. my club most fly funflys and some sport planes it is a lousey club to get giant or scale info from. and forget it if you was into gliders. thus on here for a few minor inconveiniences you get al all around info center with a lot of very knowledgeable ppl so pleas give marc a chance. you cant get a good or bad impression of a site you have only seen for a couple of minutes. Also read the faqs before griping a lot of that info on fees etc was covered in there. I am not starting a flame so I will not respond to any comments but it just peeves me to see marc try so hard to make a great site better and see a lot of people Whining abt it with only a couple minutes worth of viewing. Give him time to get it up and running and I am sure if there is problems they can be solved then not before its even been running properly he has enough to worry abt.

Joe

I already posted this in another thread, but DAMN that new RCU is one un-user-friendly looking user interface!!

I like the vbulletin board look...I don't know WHAT that other thing was, but it was butt ugly and not very user friendly.

Is THAT the "great new feature" you've been talking about??

If so, where do I get my stone ax and bear skin, I'm gonna need 'em.

Another problem...My profile seems to have been imported from RCAirport, and I cannot log into the "New RCU" I sent an email to this effect, but got no response.

For the record, I think I have (one) post at RCAirport. Yet the info in my profile seems to be derived from that great database. Also, the email address I registered at RCAirport is my work address, I never use it on RCU. Yet when I tried to login with my RCU username (same as RCAirport) it kicked my password, and told me my email address was not recognized. Well, this is the only email address I have ever used at RCU.

Oh well...

My ID changed to -RCU when the duplicate may be me from the other site, so I could have kept the original ID and password???

Well, I think I must've spent a good 20 mins or so trying to log on and inputting all sorts of personal junk that isn't requested here on the 'old' RCU.
Yup, I'd agree that there must've been a speed issue, it also took several log ins to persuade the site that I'd actually signed in. After trying to post I did notice that all the forums were still set to 'read only', I wanted to see if I could be the first poster on the 'new' RCU. The number of active users varied quite a lot too. Maybe everyone was having the same sign on problems as me.

The one thing that didn't seem too clear to me was the equivalent of the search options on the front page. i.e. Posts since last visit & posts in last 24 hours... I use these options all the time just to see what's new...

Let's get the speed up and get it up and running and deal with minor bugs on the fly. I would like to get over the change and get on with whatever comes.
