For those of you having "cookie" problems, particularly with Firefox, try clearing your cookies & cache, and perhaps even a reboot.

I had problems myself with Firefox, but now it appears to work fine now.

I was not going to do anything at first as I am .... sadly.... still an IE person. But I cleared all my cookies...cleared my browser cache and discovered that you have completely changed the damn forums and put a whole bunch of new smileys in the system.

I'm the type of person who likes change and doesn't have a problem with change.

The new forum format looks great.

I have a small annoying problem after the forum upgrade. The 'back 1 page' bottom only works half the time, i.e. you have to press it twice to get it to work. This is using Firefox 1.0.1. And yes, the new smilies are but ugly [:'(].

Ahhh so this is what my hard earned money is paying for when I buy your games, new smilies. [:@]

Ok, due to a number of people still unable to post due to the cookie problem, I have switched the Forums to use Database session management.

Hopefully, this will solve the problem.

Drop us an email at forums@matrixgames.com if you still have troubles posting.

Minor question... my back button doesn't work anymore. I have to use the forum navigation links to move backwards.

Is this deliberate?

Mine just stopped working, too. I'm sure it worked before (i.e. AFTER the changeover)

Would it be fair to say on my part that the FireFox program I downloaded and have waiting to be installed, should stay where it is, uninstalled?

I use IE and I was going to switch because of all the hype I have read about FireFox like fast & flawless function, BUT?

Anyway, I still like the new look & I have no problems, the website and forum function as before.

This is the first time Ive had a problem with Firefox, and this is extremely minor. Just a little annoying at the very most. Install it.

Definitely! Firefox is all that I use these days. It is wildly popular on our campus network and generally works better than IE! I couldn't exist without multiple tabs and the streamlined interface.
