I remember when i first complained about it the most common response was "OMG LOL IT"S SO NEW WAIT IT'S STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION".
Well, now, some time has passed, and it's still this messy, clunky, slow, 1999 throwback. Does anyone seriously prefer this over the old design? Direct comparison time!
Look at that. Everything fits together, the design is simple but elegant. Navigation was simple and easy, website was fast. It didn't have the fancy features of this one (rich-text post mode, which is mostly useless, shoutbox integrated with the forum, which is mostly useless, blog space, which is nice, and a birthday tab awwwwwww, yeah...), but would it be really that hard to integrate these things into the old design?
Now this site:
Ugh. It's not hideous, but it looks like something that came pre-packaged with the forum space. There are some things that really annoy me, like that you cannot search by posts, that sig doesn't appear in some sub-forums, the new emoticons that look fugly. I still can't fathom why in the world would this change in design be made.
I MISS THE OLD FORUM BROS ;_;

Re: Guys, the 'new' website still sucks.
- server spider
- documentation
- shoutbox
- blogs entry (weird but ok)
sections - good job, why not;
+ we need something for website improvement, maybe something like documentation section
but with forum is something not right, in past i seeked for new post in all forum easily, now i resist to do that its something uncomfortable, and those big icons... small general sections fonts.. all this thing changed to one thing to forum threads and recent blogs at websites top - i come i see to them and that's all, because there i can see easily what's going on,
maybe spread more websites top area - about recent threads/blogs ? generally fix main forum page its not intuitive as it was (seems its same, but something is just not right...)
The majority of people think they think, when really they just change their prejudices. Understanding is a matter of will in most cases.

Old one definitively looks better and what is most important more intuitive then this one.

Wait, there's a forum here? I thought this was MySpace. What happened to my Flickr feed?

It isn't meant to be degrading. It sucks compared to the old site, is what i mean, and looks like i'm not the only one that thinks so. There is no ungratefulness here, just an assessment.
My whole point is that, at the time, it was a refreshing change, it showed people that something is going on, but it never went anywhere from there, despite reassurances as to this being only a W.I.P. It's here to stay, obviously, but in hindsight, i don't think the transition was neither necessary nor needed.
