It doesn't look like it is a browser problem, then, as I haven't had any problems with MSIE 11 or the old version 8 (in XP).
Can you try going to http://www.yabbforum.com/cgi-bin/community/YaBB.pl to see if you experience the same problem there, too?

Partial Diagnosis:

With INTERNET EXPLORER browser --- I cannot see the datetime or the Preview button.

But with FIREFOX browser I can see them.

//  FireFox: View Source (datetime is present.)

Therefore, I would ask --- Why is the forum server software *not* sending the datetime string to IE?


(Unpreviewed post.)

Ah yes, I see, up above.

Meh...still don't like the lay-out.

Yeah, I see.

It is stupid to remove this feature. This board is getting slower and slower anyway.

Easy, yes I suppose so, but also time-consuming. I usually click on all the threads I want to move and then 'move', click on the drop-down box, and then 'go', but obviously there are two major limiting factors: firstly the size of the page (there might be only one thread to move each page), and secondly, the server, which seems to take a while to move several thread at the same time (and sometimes only moves some of them!)
There is no simpler way, as far as I can see, no 'search and move', say, but that is probably just as well as picking the right threads to move can also prove tricky (those new balloons are very helpful, though).

Those threads can definitely be unstuck or archived.  If you want to preserve a list of the winners for posterity, then create a single thread with one message in it that lists each winner year by year.  Could even lock the thread and then just update it once per year.

It's going to be arbitrary whichever you choose. ECO classification is an approach, but that's going to fail where theory and practice have move on and the code no longer discriminates between popular but different lines.

The most recent thread in the Spanish is about the idea of playing 8. a4 against 7. .. d6. This was posted both in the Marshall/anti-Marshall section and the general section with most posters replying in the general section.

Unstucking or sub-boarding could certainly work too, I just assumed that the moderator wants those threads to be easy to find at one place...
