Switching from GS to Sprinkler may not have been a choice by IMDb ? ?
GS as a message board had problems
This new message board is worse ? ?

Hello.
After the change to the discussion boards and the maintenance, several discussion threads went missing and are no longer accesible, this leads to the lists and polls giving a 404 error when clicking the link.
Some examples:
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/poll-suggestion-metacritics-top-animated-movies
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/poll-suggestion-emmys-2020-outstanding-documentary-or-nonfiction-series

https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/poll-suggestion-the-greatest-black-white-films-of-all-time
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/poll-suggestion-the-ultimate-cinematic-sequence
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/poll-suggestion-favorite-agents-of-s-h-i-e-l-d-character

With the redesign of this site, I've noticed a couple of issues which I think should be fixed.
As indicated in the red oval, the headers are labeled as "Ques, Probl, Idea, Prais, Announ, Artic" instead of "Questions, Problems, Idea, Praise, Announcements, Articles". In fact, some of the last letters of these abbreviations are partially cut off, like the "a" in "Idea" and the "s" in "Prais".
Meanwhile, there is a large left margin to the left of the text. Why not make the column wider and reduce the left margin so that the words in the headers could be displayed in full?
Also, in the blue oval, the contributor who posted the topic is identified as "roy_k7aqttv48ox8z". But that's not their user name. As seen on the thread itself (https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/imdb-poll/poll-suggestion-midnight-movies-after-the-heyday/5f4eaeec4833935f0917fd58), their user name is Hoekkie and that's how I assume they want to be identified.
And here's a third issue that should be fixed. Here on this message board, URLs are not automatically linked. They should be automatically linked without us having to specifically activate them. This is a key issue for those of us who help users with data issues. If someone writes, "There's an error on my name page at https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0525910/. Can you help me?" then I ought to be able to click right on that URL and go to the page, which would require that the URLs on this message board automatically be active.

Why do have all things compatible to Smartphones / cellphones? I don't like that design. I hate it.
I didn't love it at IMDb and sure not on getsatisfaction. Please roll back! Changes are good, but
on some things you want to rely on.

Hi there,

The "Related Conversations" panel on the right sidebar of a thread does not show any related conversations/threads.
It shows the last five latest conversations.
I hope this gets fixed soon.
Thank you in advance.
=====
Also, sorry if this report does not belong under this topic.

Since I already have three requests related to the redesign in another thread (see here), I'm bringing up some other issues in a new thread.
1. There are some old threads that I'm having trouble finding. In particular, I had one titled "Implementation of new genres" which had over 20 "likes" and which had been going on for several years because the underlying problem has not yet been addressed. It used to be found at https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/implementation_of_new_genres but now that's a "404 Not Found" page.
2. Also, when looking at my, or anyone else's, User Profile page, the past activities are not paginated. Compare this "paginated" view from the main forums search page:

With this new board I cannot sign in under my existing account.
I had used my google account as the sign in. It does get the reset password email, but the pwd will not reset. It gives an unclear error message that basically says it cannot be reset.
So is there any way to get the acct back?

This may be a duplicate, but I posted a response to a thread that is now closed due to having been merged here. So I can't even see what I posted.
I was trying to report that I had just experienced great difficulty posting a response here.
It has 2 small screenshots, and when I tried to post it, sprinklr gave me a Failed message, and wiped out my work. I tried again, this time copying what I constructed, and it failed again. As did another attempt after I reloaded the page.
I then submitted the post without images. That worked.
I tried to Edit the post, but pasting the image directly into its place among the text Failed again.
Finally I tried to use the Image Button provided with the other editing options.
It would NOT accept a Paste of the image.
I had to SAVE the image to a file, and drag the file into the box.
This is MUCH worse that GS.
Hopefully that's just a glitch, and won't occur again. But I wanted to post this in case IMDb flipped a switch that caused this change. (I've been able to paste directly into the edit box in several prior posts.)

Just wondering: how, exactly, does this site make it easier to engage with and discover the content that means the most to me, compared to the former message board on Get Satisfaction?

The forum system vocabulary has shifted. That which was referred to as a "topic" is now known as a "post". Such is okay. (We often call it "thread" anyway.) However, almost confusingly, that which was referred to as a "reply" is now known as a "comment", and that which was referred to as a "comment" is now known as a "reply". I've noticed that, in this redesigned system, closed threads no longer display any of the responses originally made to it. Just like before, none of the stars or "likes" migrate with any of the migrated response messages to a thread.
