    What happened to that lovely clicky bar that took you to the top or bottom of any page? Was really useful and user-friendly, can we have it back please.

    They are gone, however, do not fear! Most browsers got a scrollbar!

    i miss them too, but as alternative you can use your keyboard (depending on browser home/end or ctrl-home/ctrl-end)

    +1 for getting the scroll bars back.
    It was so much more faster and practical than using key-combos or scrolling.
    Improved usability weighs heavier than bling-bling to me. :wink:

    Still hoping it's just gone temporarily because of the forum changes/upgrades.

    I guess this means I'm old school because I don't know what you all are talking about. I always use browser scroll bars. *shrugs*

    Hehe, nothing newfangled, merely a preference.
    It's about those 2 arrow buttons that were floating on the right bottom corner of the screen.
    triangle up.png
    triangle down.png <--- sorta like that.
    Regardless where you are on the page: clicking the Up arrow brings you to the top, and clicking the Down arrow brings you to the bottom of the page.
    So instead of scrolling 10 times, or pressing 2 buttons simultaneously: those arrows just take 1 quick mouse-click.
    Sites that have long pages often have a feature like that.

    Yeah, it's nothing massive or earth shaking; but while the forum is being upgraded, we might as well make a case for something we find practical/useful/convenient? It doesn't hurt to ask. :laugh:

    Sounds convenient. Maybe I'm too used to scroll bars because I never notice such clicky things. :tongue:
