Default Yikes...what happened

Hmmm... I just logged in and voila.. a whole new format. I'm sitting here wondering when it all happened, I wasn't offline THAT long. Anyway, I guess change is good, especially if it makes it easier. Well, tomorrow, I send off our I-129F packet to INS, fingers crossed that we did everything ok. Hope all of you are well, and hang in there

Neither do I, the old way of separating marriage based immigration was far easier to navigate.

I think I actually have three stars (it seems to change, strangely) and I have no idea what it means either. It also listed my number of posts at 120 but there is no way I've been that active, have I? eeeek. I guess maybe I *am* addicted.

Question: to get to the marriage based visa board, do you go down to the link for the uesnet groups? that's what I did to get here, but don't know if there is a quicker way?

Hi Groovy,
There is a marriage based group if you go wayyyyy down to the bottom of the forum index page.......it's under the usenet thingy. I'm really confused too. Not liking this at all.

I assume the stars are representative of the number of posts one has made.

For those who dislike the new format, (it is rather distasteful) there is actually a feedback forum somewhere down the list - maybe you should let the administrators know?

I think you're right in that the number of posts is inaccurate ... I'm listed as 145 posts, and I know I've only posted through expats around 60 or so times ... *shrug*

This will take some getting use to.

Rob, I see you are another Cambridge dweller. What with Patrick here also, we should start our own Cambridgeshire/east anglia visa advise board LOL

We should all meet for a beer or something and do some moral support type stuff!

This new layout sucks!
