h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

use this: [Upgrade to BBC iD: see A2862074]

I recommend that you upgrade now, before the new system is the only way into h2g2.

Now I'm singing on the dotted lion.

I think it updated ?,,,,,,,how would I find that out ?,,,editors ???

Section 6 of A2862074 tells you how to convince yourself that it has updated.

Yep. It convinces me that it has not updated.

Just takes me back to the update page, which refuses to co-operate

"There has been a problem, please check your legacy_username.fieldname and legacy_user_id.fieldname."

no matter what happens, kids

remember

That was....anticlimactic.

You didn't feel it, Mala?

christ it works

Yes, me too. Disappointingly hassle-free

Here starts my problems!

I like the new Who Am I line near the top. The old one used to get chopped off part-way

What's a "Who am I" line?

Oh wait - there's one at the top here but not when I'm in the conversation.

Not when you're using frames, no.

Anyone else see an superfluous sideways scroll bar along the bottom? I've got one that is almost full and stays that way even when I re-size my window.

So far that's the worst that's happened to me from the change. So, yea... painless.

I made it across physically, but I'm still looking for the rest of my sanity.

Yes I've got that as well

I've lost my ~wings~.
And 'preferences' isn't h2g2 specific anymore.
It won't let me use tildes in my h2g2 display name.

I feel like a broken winged bird.


~jwf~

I don't see that scroll bar. Which browser? (I'm using IE8)
