Hi DS. I was just wondering why, in 2014, your website is still so absolutely crap. Given that DS is a commercial website and has been running for about 15 years, can anyone explain to me why so many of your pages are full of bugs which slow down browsers and cause them to crash? And how come you can't manage basics like adding photo galleries to articles which work and don't reload the whole page?
We'll leave the calibre of writing and the general standard of journalism for another day, but in the meantime can anyone at DS explain why the site itself is so crap?
Surely there must be a reason. I imagine you must be trying your best and failing, but why?

The forums are great. The website itself is a disaster and always has been.
Well why moan then, at least you get enjoyment and value a big part of what the site provides.
I pay 12 pound a month to subscribe to BT sports, for the premier league football they supply once a week, everything else about the channel is absolutely crap, i never watch it, but i dont start moaning at them asking why the channel is so poor
shouldnt this be in the food and drink forum?
There is no point in asking the average DS user. You need to contact the webmaster(s).
Or tinned chopped pork
That is funny
Has Brain_Higgy been giving you lessons?
It's like a shop really, if you don't like the goods then go somewhere else. Tis a simple solution
I know.
I'm still laughing at me :cool:
Yeah, it's like a shop. The only trouble is, that shop is Woolworth's. The site is stagnating, it needs to evolve and embrace some of the latest HTML5 goodness.
Why do you think that?
I won't pretend to understand all the technology involved but aware of video links and that there are loads of things involved. I have a friend whose hubby is highly skilled on all this, I remain ignorant
I'm not sure if this is a worthwhile comment but I have noticed that since DS did the new format the amount of typos has increased immensely, I added something to mine which makes the site more clear to read. I only speak with the useless knowledge of computing
I used the "stylish" skin to revert back to the old DS face.
Forum is OK at the mo, and I'm able to navigate quickly between pages and threads. There has been an issue when I've used my tablet to access DS - keep getting a yahoo message saying I have 3 viruses, which I don't.
I've been here only a tad longer than you and I don't recall a change.
Or, more likely, I've forgotten it as it hasn't bothered me.
Lots of forums bring about visual format change and posters always get "up in arms" but the forum doesn't really change that much.
