I'm running into a bunch of problems, but I thought I'd start with this question:

Why are the boxes for posting new text so small? They're a tiny fraction of the screen size and it's difficult if you're wrestling with something complicated. There's about ten times as much unused white space surrounding it. Ever think of making it larger?

There's a dropdown box to change the size.

Also, 'reply to topic' allows you to save a long, complicate post
before sending.

The little triangle in the lower right corner. Click, hold and stretch it as big as you would like

Thanks for asking this question, Ccarroll. I've been here for 3 years now and I didn't know about that feature.

Heck, I never knew that either and look how many times I've opened that box.

That's not what I was talking about though..

Why-Are-The-Posting-Boxes-So-Small?

Change that dropdown and it will stay that size every post until your cookies are cleared.

I am using the "reply to," but it's tiny, maybe a tenth of the size of the screen. Okay, I'm trying that little triangle - but don't you think it's not a good idea to have a feature that no one would be able to guess about?

And, weirdly, I've had to log in 5 or 6 times.

No one else has ever made this complaint. Unless you provide a screenshot, there's nothing I can do to troubleshoot the problem.
