    Worst forum laout EVER

    Is it possible to go back to the old forum layout?? Current is terrible to navigate through forums, and check the activity in each forum...

    Maybe it´s just me. Is there everyone out there who didnt like the new layout?

    Me no likey too

     

    (it's "cleaner" and possibly more pleasant than the previous forum, but that is moot in the face of loosing all pertitent information from forums) IMHO.

    What dont you like about it?  I didn't really think it was that different other than the forum home page where you select topics.  That takes a little getting used to.  But there are a lot of cool things like the home page of the community showing you all activity from conversations you have been involved with and from your friends.

    I dont like to click 3 times to go to my favorite forum... before, was just click forums on the navigation bar and there it was. all of them, showing which one have new posts, what's the latest post is about and all that.

    I like to read all the forums post in order, so 1st I go to the dev forum and read every new post there, and the move to dicussions, and feature-requests and so on... the new model feels like it's all fragmented. );

    I like the new colors, bet forums functionality tops that.

    That´s almost like the start page. Shows the posts, but doesnt show in which forum that post is.

    There is a dropdown at the top where you can switch between forums.

    The RSS on the Unread Post pages doesnt match it´s content.... );

    It would be awesome to have that rss working.

     

    OMG, using firefox 2 if you resize the font (for a bigger size) messages are cut... );

    I totally disagree!! The new layout is very 2.0 and looks great. Simple, effective and less is more design. Good work!
