Is it me, or ?

Is it me, or is this forum the worst layout of them all ? I belong to several forums and run one myself, but this Jayco one has got to be worst one for navigation. It's extremely difficult to follow threads on here unless they show up on the small "recent threads" window on the right. I wish we could change the format.

Yes, it definitely has a mysterious aspect to it. Threads just seem to disappear.

While JOF doesn't have the greatest forum software, there are far worse out there. iRV2 forums are noticeably worse. HowToGeek built their own software and it sucks like a Hoover. The FreeFileSync forum is just as bad. The LibreOffice forum software is the absolute worst. I've seen other bad ones. All those make JOF's software look good.

Actually very few threads are removed. Some are closed if they get too argumentative and/or go against the forum rules. But not often.

I've belonged to a number of forums over the years. This is one of the easier ones to navigate.

The threads only drop off the most recent 20 thread list it is always here. You just need to go to forums and look under the correct heading to find it, or do a search. It's confusing untill you get use to the layout.

It's also one of the more active forums and the moderartors do a great job of keeping it "in line".

I am about 1 level above ignorant when it comes to smart phones. That said I find this forum easy to use. There was a time I had some difficulty finding a particular subject once but the response to my request was so quick and helpful it null and voided any grief I was having at that time.
Hats off to who ever

I have no problems with this forum especially compared to some others I follow.

IMO, one of the more archaic ones is RV.Net. It's hard to post pictures to that site.

To my knowledge this is the only Jayco forum. There is a Jayco RV club on Facebook.
