Me neither. The messages looks confusing and isn't overly nice to look at either.. I'm very pleased with this forum.

What are the new features? I saw a rss feed on top. That would be a major upgrade.

The look of the forum doesnt change, RealGM has its own stylesheet, but newer features will prob result in new graphics

Another forum I visit upgraded to it a while ago.

It mostly the same, and if you really like the old way you can go back to the old version.

But I like it mainly because reading the post starting at the left, with the poster information on the right just makes more sense.

Really? I really like that it's on the left. The first sentence is closely attached to the screenname, which only takes half a sec to read. If it was all the way over on the right, you'd have to physically move your eyeballs to a further destination.. :lol:

J/K, but I like it's on the left. I think having the profile on the right just makes it look confusing.

You can switch between the poster info on the right or the left, they just happen to have it to the right on that board.

It's harder to switch board systems completely. Upgrading to phpBB 3 would be easy.

Well even though you are joking, the new way also has the use rname right above, although it is small.

Also, I don't really look at user names a lot. If anything I identify with avatars.

When it comes to you, I agree. Whenever I see some blue hair, I know it's you ;)
