This new format is definitely not going to work on my computer at work. And it's really annoying. Ugh.

The change is a little more complicated. The older version was more simple and straight to the point.

Let me start by saying that I love RealGM and appreciate that you all see to its sustained existence.

That said...

What the HELL is this? This looks absolutely atrocious. It honestly looks like you thought: "How can we make this look as ugly and un-user-friendly as humanly possible?" This is just terrible. PLEASE switch it back.

Arwe the slide3s at the top of the forum neccesary really. Its dumb. We see the front page thats fine. And quick text links would be fine but whats the point of the photos in a square box jsut makes for more scrolling

Sorry realgm you bombed thsi one badly.

I dont like how there is not a post quick reply option.. where you can just type at the bottom of the thread,

- it now looks like those standard generic forums that all sites have even though they dont have any traffic
- definitely like the old look WAY better

where do you see the posts u need to move up a level like other people have stated?

Nope, not the only one.
It's crashed my browser 5 times today alone, lol.

Someone needs to seriously look into a better color scheme. Blue font on a light blue background is just plain stupid.

the reason I dnt like it is also because it is really uncomfortable, no thread stands out, its like they mesh with one another, and also the fonts are smaller. With the other one it was very easy to read

Fiddling around with it a bit, I think there are a lot of really cool new features people will like if/when they discover them.

That said, I have 3 real concerns and one minor concern.

1) PM's. If they're still accessible, I don't see them, but in any event assume it's harder to do.

2) The quotation function...it seems easier to do, but it shows up poorly...I myself can't really see where the quoted part ends and the response begins.

3) Quick reply. It was a never talked about but apparently integral aspect to posting.

And the minor concern is just aesthetics...it doesn't look as clean. I'll probably get used to it over time, but it seems somehow less readable.

Edit: I had to submit this 3 times before it went through.
