I like the old forum style better, anyone else second that?

[JimiHendrix]

I 100% agree- this style just has too much crap around it. The old style was much simpler and neater. Also I prefer having the user info on the side than at the top b/c it can be confusing as to whose post is which. Maybe we should start a poll for this and try to get whoever to change it back...

[ericesquire]

Yeah, too much BS on this that no one will EVER use - this sucks, GO BACK TO THE OLD ONE!

The member list doesn't even work...

I think the only thing we could have used extra was a quick reply feature, I like that.

I gotta agree. The other format kept it simple. I just got home and this scared the sh!t outta me. Looks too much like other cluttered forums.

Partially agreed... new is not necessarily better, then again change is also not always bad.

I am the only one getting a "The operation timed out when connecting to adeptisoft.com" when loading each and every forum page and thread?

Add the Quick Reply feature
PLEASE, OH PLEASE put the Avatars and user info to the left of their post - this is such a waste of space having it on the top and SO INCREDIBLY ANNOYING

Agreed... generally when forums go to make sweeping changes like this, they tell or ask their users what they think. For someone running an entrepreneurial forum, I am kind of surprise there was no request for feedback before the changes were made. Poor form, in my humble opinion. Instead your uses got this somewhat unpleasant surprise all at once, with no warning.

Avatars to the left of the post, and the other thing that is really annoying is having the clipboard icon to show new posts, and the green icon for no new posts. There is no need to change that system, and the new system dark icon/green icon/red clipboard is much more complex than it needs to be, and confusing for those of us who are used to seeing the green icon and knowing there are new posts. Oh and also I preferred having all of the emoticons in yellow, but that one isn't that important.

Well I have to say I like the new layout.

It is now in line with so many other forums .. keeps everything consistant.

And the features that come with this theme are pretty good.
