Hi Beth, I know that it is just the forums that have merged. I just thought that we might be a member of one forum but just a guest on the other forums. Instead of using the term guest, I just thought I would use the word as a noun, indicating that I was part of the 'Merger'

We both just happen to have some of the same people as members. Discussion Time is a seperate and distinct forum.

Lassie, you must ask your someone to help you get set up and started with one of the laptops. Tell them our URL is www.gatesofbabylon.com and you can at least use it for the forum so you can tell what you are doing. If it helps encourage you ... you can use the mouse to enlarge or decrease the size of your font. Do it right away.

Yes, she does, but she has lots of problems with it, too.
She has trouble seeing the small font and a lot of trouble using the phone connect in general. She has been concerned about this for months. Using one of her laptop would solve most of these aggravations and make it possible for her to enjoy her online time so much more.

She clearly states that she likes her phone.

I am sure that the word affiliate was used when you first suggested it. I know the forums are separate and each Admin is in charge of their own forum. The affiliation is the fact that the members of each forum agreed to post on the forum of the others. In my dictionary, affiliation is: a merger, union, alliance, coalition, amalgamation. I'll leave it at that.!!!

Everything is inbuilt so that a mouse is not needed. If I knew how to use my laptop, I would be using it. I know how to use my IPhone, Until I have the time to read my computer book, I'll stick with the IPhone.!!!

I think Beth's right about you having it a lot easier with your laptop, but she must have been thinking desktop with the mouse. Have you ever tried changing the font type you use here? Do you have trouble with the font size on any of the other places you go online?

No Lassie, the forums haven't merged. We both just happen to have some of the same people as members. Discussion Time is a seperate and distinct forum. Hi Beth, I am somewhat confused. I am sure that the word affiliate was used when you first suggested it. I know the forums are separate and each Admin is in charge of their own forum. The affiliation is the fact that the members of each forum agreed to post on the forum of the others. In my dictionary, affiliation is: a merger, union, alliance, coalition, amalgamation. I'll leave it at that.!!! No, you're mistaken here, Lassie. Beth told you right. On Proboards, "affiliate" is only when discussion sites allow another site to put up an advertisement. Nobody "agrees" to do anything except put up the ad. Members have the options to join or not join anywhere they want to. In the same way, the forums can accept members or not, either way they want to. In the future, if you have questions, please put them on the "Help Desk" topic. Thanks.

Hi Dex, I go to settings and tick the font size, It even has extra large. I have tried them all. The font size does not change. The whole point is: that it was normal to start off with. It was on medium, then it changed to miniscule even though it was still on medium. I tried putting the tick on large to see if that would make a difference, but the font stayed miniscule. I have to use a magnifying glass in order to see what I have typed.
