<![CDATA[Please do say which version of Opera you are using whenever you're requesting help!]]>This applies to many of the forum sections of course, but I thought I'd put it here as this is the section I most visit personally.
Please, until a signature facility is introduced to this forum, which I hope it will be, say in your post which version of Opera you are using, especially when starting threads.

The Presto based (12-) and Chrome/Blink based (15+) versions of the Opera desktop browser are totally different pieces of software, as I'm sure I don't need to tell anyone!
If you post about any issue with the browser, it is vital to know straight away which version you're talking about!

Use Opera 20.

And yes, I do get the point of the topic, I'm just going with the flow and adding to the fluff.

Posting which version one has when one has an issue, is very helpful." Anyone following that post and continuing astray has only him/herself to blame. ;-p

I'm an extension developer as well. And THAT is an unthankful job. Being a mod is far less frustrating concerning people's feedback...

Since I'm trying to moderate this vast amount of posts I read most of them ...

Heh. So there were a whole lot of things they didn't tell you when they offered you the job, eh? Thanks greatly for what you're doing, and to the other mods and their efforts as well, both here and in the old My Opera forums. It can be a thankless job at times, but it's truly a necessary one. Now, I'll stop contributing to the OT chatter and back out... but thanks again.

Another thing to add to the long and ever growing list of things missing from this forum I'm afraid.

Another 30% do read the post and the rest may read one or the other comment if you're lucky.
If that shouldn't be true, I can't tell how people come up with all that out-of-topic/duplicate comments...

Actually, I read the original post and largely understood it but got influenced too by the original title's ambiguity, and by the time I had run down through all the other posts having their own rather different focii, my own thought train was partially derailed. (Though I do claim partial credit for having at least addressed the original thread context in part of my first post).

Perhaps this can serve as a good model for how a thread unintentionally derails and how a simple title can be taken in two completely different ways...

Many people just skim (if they read it at all), then jump right in without truly realizing what they're responding to.

I was tempted to post myself, just because it seemed to become the de facto response to the thread, but I was too lazy to be bothered, heh.

I'd probably have written the same and I second your request.
I amended the headline, but I don't believe that this is going to change anything ^^

Right now, "Opera version" is an inherently volatile atmosphere. 😉

ahahaha 😃
@davehawley: Now you got the version without an issue. Isn't that ironic? ^^

cristoph, I'm sorry, I should have realised that this would happen, but my reason for starting this thread was to ask people to always state which version of Opera they were using when they post here.
It wasn't supposed to be a thread for people to just say which version they were using!
I can't amend the thread title, but I assume you can.
Could you add "when posting here" to the end of it please!
Thanks. Dave.

Regarding putting one's version into their posts, it can be done by simply using a bit of markdown code, though the user does have to remember to add it manually to each post. I'm now using a bit of signature text copied from a text file each time, but I look forward to a "signature" feature to be added to these forums so I don't have to remember each time.

During the last time both took always longer to start and went slower from update to update.

Then I tried Opera 19 and found it extremly fast and reacting quick.
Well, organizing my bookmarks had been a nightmare, as I had many at Firefox.

Now, all ist settled and I am very satisfied with Opera - it is now the browser I want to use.

I use Opera 20. I have no issues whatsoever with the latest version and in fact, love it. It's fast. It's compatible with my favorite sites AND it keeps getting even better with each new version. The fact is, Opera is an exciting browser and I highly commend the Opera Dev Team.

You said it for me.
