I will try again.

The previous forum had a control for number of items per page.  Please explicitly highlight this in the new forum.  I ask because going back to your server to progress through the pages seems a waste of my time.  I would rather keep scrolling down a long page.

Is it intended behaviour that I should be logged out when switching between discussion and history pages?

The previous forum enabled me to find my own posts by a short route from the menu bar.  Please explicitly highlight how to find my own posts in the new forum.

I feel that the functionality of the forum has been degraded.  If there is no possibility of going back then please tell me to just suck it up.
