Are we sure we want FreshDesk at all? There seem to be several problems associated with it, like no way to edit posts only to delete them, no way of quickly finding out the new posts, and for reasons unknown to me yet, I can't copy/paste anymore.

It's far from ideal. But for me it's a little better than the old Yahoo Group.

Can you paste in a message? This, I have to admit, is a perfectly new FreshDesk feature, but if I try, my message is gone, irrevocably gone.

I paste this:

Pasting works here too. Watch:

However, I agree that this forum software is far from ideal. 

What I really miss is the ability to reply to specific posts, rather than just put it at the very bottom of the whole thread.

And as Hans mentioned, there's no way to see the latest posts (!!!). The section called "Popular topics" at the top right, is useless.

No problems anymore here either. Didn't know you had to restart websites every once in a while...

MB: And as Hans mentioned

The trouble err, is, that I always seem to have to report the err, trouble. Gives me a bad reputation...

MB (in another thread): Instead of editing my post, I usually just delete and repost it, corrected. Not ideal, but it gets the job done.

Yes, but that will trigger extra e-mail messages with sounds and things, and as you know very well, I don't want to annoy people.

Not at all, dear Hans vdB

Is there a way to be notified by e-mail of new posts in a forum one is following?

You have to click the Following button:

namely, the Following button:

er, I mean the button with the label Following (got in a loop :( had to reset my head):

You got yourself a new picture did an update on your head? ;)

Thanks, following a forum indeed does the trick. I’ve now created a filter that labels such notifications with the same label as the Yahoo group in my Gmail. It’s more convenient for me to monitor everything from Gmail, and only go to forums if/when there’s something of interest.
