    Edit: I like the notifications! Very cool! Is there any way to make the forum page wider? I've got about 30% white space on either side. I'll test w/ other browsers.

      I dont like it at all! I dont like how I cant see the topic title anymore so I do not really know what I am clicking into on the main forum page.

      I had to log in again to be able to comment... odd. Also, the smilies are even more limited, not that I thought that was actually possible. :|

      so far it seems kind of slow ..and I noticed when it go "my discussions" a topic that i just posted in was not at the top ..maybe I just like the old system, but, so far, not digging this update…however, I do like the fact that they wiped out all my strikes!

      I think the forum width on the page needs to be wider by about 20-30% and push the ads etc. to the right to align with the right side of the screen. It's too small right now and looks to be boxed into the same frame as the daily feed. Beyond that I think it is a great improvement!

      Yeah I had to login again to post this...that was annoying. It's also kind of slow.

      I do not like it. My discussions i used to just bookmark my own topics. They took old the 25 thread you recently post in .

      I agree about the forum page not being wide enough - on the main page the "popular groups" block on the side comes up larger than the actual forum listing. Very poor design.

      Oddly the REPLY area is showing the text about 3 times bigger then the actual forums are showing for me too.

      I haven't given it a chance, and probably won't. Most forum updates suck. Oh, what's in 'my discussions' isn't current at all, so I assume the forums have been pruned. My guess is, the updates were done to accommodate more advertising. That's what usually drives these things.

      Huh.. Just wanted to see what happens when you quote someone.

    • Posts: 1,719 Member
      yes, the pics are smaller. Hopefully the formatting will be adjusted to make everything on the forum page a bit wider.

      Now I have to dig my glasses out to see the pics. This could be a game changer...seriously. Oh and it used to say I was a member since March 2008. Was kind of proud of that streak...now who would know? (more importantly...who would care?)

      So far gota get used to it I guess, Pics of users a lot smaller, no ignore button, and the smileys suck. And cause I cant spell it still needs a spell checker.

      The multiple quote "hide"/"unhide" thingy is cool though.
