too many clicks for one simple thing. To recieve messages, if your inbox is full, the site tells you its got the messages but is holding out and you will have to delete a previous message.
Delete message used to be a simple button on the top and bottom of the page, check the message and hit this button, no problem.
On this new one, after sorting through 5 pull down menus with misleading titles, on the bottom only of the last page, You find that menu that contains the delete option, no indication in the menu title will tell you its there, you have to look through all the menus.
Click delete
then you have to click a 'go' button,
after clicking the go button, it will take some time and then throw you a page that asks if you really really want to delete a message. Click yes. to indicate that you really meant it when you clicked both delete and go.
It will then give you a screen that tells you that you succeeded in deleteing the message, and then you will see a the page that tells you that the site is holding out the message you want to read, and you click again to get them.
Whoever designed this, is an idiot. the server is holding your messages, its not saving them any harddrive space, its just annoying you by making you look through a bunch of menus to find what was once straightforward, then You click delete, then go, then yes I really meant it when I clicked delete and when I clicked go. After that, its only two more clicks to get the messages.
BRilliant!
Fat ladies stand in doorways to talk to their friends, while other people want to come in or go out. This is the ploy they use to get attention, you gotta ask their permission and cooperation to use the door. The geek who designed this interface shoulda been a fat lady, He really craves attention.
Wake up and smell the Kafka!!!
