I see no reason to visit any other sub-forum.
As someone in the area, I like to know if people are dropping tickets on the cheap. For someone on the other side of the country, totally agree.

Pfft.  Who is this imposter?

The Julian I know would never do anything "on the cheap".....and certainly wouldn't fraternize with them in the dredges of a sub-forum.

Can we please get back on topic? This is not a thread about me. It's a thread about technical issues affecting me.

This.

this this.

i have a 1920 x 1080 monitor, and i can read ONE post on the initial screen load.  the other 90% of the initial screen is graphics and nav.  i'm here for the posts, not the logos.  i imagine that folks on smaller screens won't see any posts at all, they need to scroll down to start reading content.  worse-case scenario: a newbie decides to check out the forum, clicks on a thread they think could be interesting, get to a page with no content, and bounce on outta here.

and belated THANK YOU for making the mobile version responsive!!!

I agree for mobile, but for desktop and laptop too?  That seems like a complete waste.....

I have my desktop monitor in portrait mode. I will always work this way.

when I managed the service desk, there was always a very long list of open items
I always had one 27inch monitor in portrait mode as I could see like 50 open issues on one page (vs 15 in landscape)

but I am fond of landscape for everything else

I have always positioned them in landscape but now that I'm reading this, the rightmost of my three I'm considering putting portrait mode because I have something I'm in and out of all day that'd display perfectly in portrait.
