Farewell old forum, I knew you well, a forum of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy, you hath borne my posts a thousand times.
Now cracks a noble site - Good night sweet forum, and flights of angels sing thee to your rest.

Thy take no pleasure in other's misfortune, fair maiden.
I'm not keen on German coleslaw.
i really really don't like this new look 
That didn't take too long.
Dunno if its just til i get used to it bit it doesn't look as clear - too much going on (uts busy) and too loonog - everything seems stretched out
i can't even type i'm so confused
For example - that box on the right of the screen - its far too wide
Does it have to be sooo big??

You got him there, Baz.

A concise forum lets you see several things at once - instead i;m scrolling and scrolling

I agree Saint
At best i can see 3 forum subject
Previously i could see 5/6 postings - making the forum much easier at a glance.
Why have 5 lines worth of info for every topic? Liked, last post, reply - each is 5 deep - its too fat
Basically the forum is too fat for its own good
There!!
And why all the gaps between my lines???
I did see somewhere that you can choose how many posts you see on each page, to stop so much scrolling but I can't find it now.
This is progress folks
Too true my friend

Once there are enough replies on a thread, the option to set how many replies per page is shown at the foot of each page. I think there has to be at least 20 replies on a thread before this option appears. Once there are over that number you have the option of 20 or 40 replies per page. The options increase so that for threads with many replies you get the option of 20, 40, 100 or 200 replies per page. I doubt if many people would want 200 replies on a page as that would be a lot of scrolling. But it would have its use if you were wanting to print out a thread. (There used to be a printer friendly format option but that's no longer considered needed).
I hate this new format - it limits what you can see at a glance - everything is too bulky - i'm scrolling and scrolling just to see a few comments
EL when you press the Take Action button it does give you a printer friendly option.

It's spread is exacctly the same for me.
Blank column on the left, then the posting column, then the'calandar' column and finally another blank column. No different to before, except in the design of the columns' contents,

Ditto for me EFFT .....the only real difference for me ( as I post from my iPad ) is that it's much clearer
