Site Software Updated...?
Hi, All.
Had a failed login once today, since then I've noticed that the OP on all threads is labeled
"Thread Starter" (as you can see, just to the left ).
Are there any other changes, features, bugs, or Easter eggs we should know about?

Yea, something has changed from a few hours ago.
I see a little smaller font and general appearance. Some other details too.
No you are not alone.
Edit..Hopefully this might help people who use phones or tablets. I'll never know because I don't have such things at this time.

Many sites I frequent are likewise optimizing to view on mobile devices, with the content all stacked on the left of a more or less standard 1366 X 768 view. There is a big swing to tiles, which I and many in my peer group hate hate hate. It isn't clear at all if the data actually supports the idea users on mobile devices are now the majority, or if it is a industry hunch, and no one wants to get left behind with a site that is less then optimum viewed on mobile devices. I do not ever anticipate using any mobile device exclusively, as simply it is too clumsy while doing banking etc without a ascii KB connected for fat fingers. A site I still use for radio which is a paid subscriber site had a mini-revolt when the board owner essentially told his mostly older paid users tough S. They came up with a sort of legacy display mode which is a whole lot better then ugly cumbersome eye-straining tiles.
Please! NO TILES EVER.

And, hey, Eric and Olds64, do you think that IB-José or one of those IB guys could change the text string on the "Thread Starter" flag to something less obtrusive, like "OP"?

They host the site on their servers, back it up, and maintain the software, in return for the advertising revenue from ads posted on the site.
