Seems like we had to wait months and months for the forums to go back up after being down at Christmastime. Now we have had forums for a few months now, and participation has been very slow! Whats up with that?

In my case, when I'm logged in I can't access several of the most active forums here, which prevents me from being able to post in them. You might have noticed I've begun new threads in different forums in order to reply to questions posted. Perhaps others are experiencing the same thing.

No offense, but you and I are generally around a lot! Wasn't really thinking about us, but rather why the participation seems to be lagging lately? Used to be a very active forum, and I know that people come and go, but not too many new people are coming along lately.

My point, if other people are having the same problem I am, then they are unable to submit posts. :)

I haven't had any difficulty at all. I suppose, if others are having problems, then maybe that could explain it. But, then I wonder why this isn't being addressed/fixed?

Honestly, I think that it is apparent that the zone forums are not very high on the priority list, otherwise the posting issue would be resolved. I know you have been having difficulty for quite some time!

I have not had any problems either with posting.

I think the reason that this forum isnt as active as the old one is that the new website/forum took so long to get up and running. People must have thought it was never coming back after so many months of being down. I must admit I lost interest looking to see if the forum was up and running. The new website/forum should have been tested in the background before shutting down the old site so that there was a smooth transition from one to the other.

My gripe is the Login for the forum. When you start typing it should automatically bring up your email address instead of having to type in the whole thing every single time.

They are aware of my concerns and have been working on fixing it.

Agreed, they were down for so long after promising only a few weeks back in November.
many folks, finally just gave up, thinking they were never going to come up,
As most software companies, know, leave the old system up and build and test, test, test the new system. Bring the new system on-line, while leaving the old one up.
let users, further try and test, then make new system the primary one.
They could have EASILY done this.

Well, seems as if things are slowly coming back, but I am sure that the long time down did not help! And, I agree, I am not a web monkey by any means, but I have experienced it at work, with our own intranet, they keep the old one up while building the new one, and they test, test, test, until they get it right. THEN, they take the old one down and migrate everything to the new one.

Hi there. I am trying to get better Zoned after surviving toddler twins and early education programs with them. We are zoned, but not as nutritiously as we could be, and I need to begin exercising again.

Also, perhaps people are using facebook and twitter more than the forums, and may not know that the forums are up and running again.

and will I receive email notifications for replies for threads I have posted in?

Sorry no email replies.
