    The new top bar format on SBR is no good.

    See the new bar on top of the website here ?
    I can't roll my pointer over "Forum" anymore.
    It used to pop up with all the forums when you scrolled over it,
    and Players Talk was right there.
    Now there is no way to access PT or More Sports or Sportsbooks & Industry
    without clicking on the full forum link.
    It was better before.
    Either restore the old way or expand the blue bar to include all subforums.

    i agree the new format sucks ass.


    but to those of you who do not like Big Bear this could be a good thing b/c i think it will keep me away from the forum as this new feature makes SBR Un-Bearable to navigate.

    this is the type of shit that makes me want to go to school to learn how to build websites.

    If it will truly make bear stay away...I'll do whatever it takes to keep it.

    But we all know that won't happen. That dumbfukk has nothing else in his life besides coming on here and getting laughed at...so unfortunately he ain't going nowhere.

    While i doubt the help is needed, i have built and ran several websites and/or forums and any free help or questions anyone (in the administration of considering a change) would have on the how-to's/help/etc department feel free to pm me...it's a simple fix.


    However, as the big man said...

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for all of the feedback so far. You will notice that the family bar is consistent with most of the other sites now on the SBR network, which was needed to work with today's tech and makes for a smoother experience overall, for instance the SBR review homepage is now fully responsive and mobile-friendly.

    That said we are not done with tweaks and will be adding some more ways to hop around from the posting forum.

    It sounds like you're using the desktop skin on your mobile device? You can access the sportsbook through the red link on the menu bar & using the right column.





    If using the mobile skin, you can access SBR book using the sub-forum links on the forum main page.

    Fellas,

    The blue bar right above the forum is still on every page. So if you want to get to the sports forums you can mouse over the same way as you did the SBR network bar and you're there.


    If we add the other forums the same way under "Forum" to the left do you think we will have it covered? This way it will be a closer click than if we put it back way up top on the network bar.

    Thanks Billy....but I'll take it from here, pal.

    Here's the deal....we changed the format. It works better like this. This is how it's gonna be. No matter how much some whiny bitch like Bear pisses and moans.

    If you don't like it...feel free to get the fukk out.

    Good luck with your bets!

    you're still not understanding the main issue. the blue bar does not offer any quick (i.e. one click) method to get back to Players Talk, The Saloon, or any other general discussion forum.

    for example - go into the NFL Forum and from there, try getting back to Players Talk via one click from the blue bar. here's a hint: you can't do it currently because when you mouse over the "Forum" tab on the blue bar, there is no drop down option from there to click on Players Talk. however, this use to be possible here (and according to others who understand tech, still is possible).

    why can't you guys simply communicate with other tech minds in the know so this can be fixed?

    I must click the pages differently than most here?

    The new format is fine. Didn't effect the way I clicked before.
