    I think the old site was easier to read. This all white is very hard. I thought the colour sceme of the old board was much easier to read. When you look at the page outlining which forums there are it loks like a big mess. It's hard reading the threads too..

    Maybe it would nice if the site was more customizable (different skins and layouts) to make it easier to read.

    The white is very bright and hard I agree. The old was comfortable. But this new forum opens it to all.

    Assuming 10c is looking for feedback, here are my problems:

    Why only an hour to edit?? That's going to mess up some threads where updates in the OP are required - there are a lot of those.

    This new forum is giving me a headache. It's SO hard on the eyes! And I am sad about all the good smilies being gone. :(

    Also, the avatars are tiny. It's really hard to tell who's who. It's going to be hard to scroll through a page to find a particular person's post.

    Why is the number of posts people have so prominent? That's kind of weird, and doesn't look very nice. It's bolder than the person's name!

    I am finding it impossible to really explore because this is hard to use on my phone and i don't have a computer at home.

    Is there a way to limit number of posts per page? If the lack of separation between posts remains, there are way too many posts per page to scroll through without going cross-eyed.



    I love that we can embed videos though (not yet sure if i can on a phone or not...). I'm sure there would be other things i could say i liked if any of the extra features were big enough on my phone's screen to read.

    If you make this all MUCH easier to look at it could be good. Right now, no. It's unpleasant.

    I don't always wear my sunglasses while sitting at the computer, but when I do...I'm reading the PJ forums. Mercy.

    Oh and the 'connect' to social media (facebook and twitter) is not working...yet.

    I really hope there are more changes to come. This blows. I haven't tried on my PC. Maybe it's better??

    And it looks like I am getting email notifications of new posts every single time someone posts in a subscribed thread. Oh god, that stinks. Just today i was saying how getting a notification with each new post instead of just one until you visit the thread again is a horrible Facebook feature, and now this forum is doing it too. Please fix that!

    Going to take some getting used to, but after reading the 5 pages leading up to this I must say, the white background is hard on the eyes.

    The white background could be dialed down a little.
    Just an honest paid response.

    Very hard to read. Tough to pick out the actual posts from the ridic long signatures. Please go back, or go to something better.

    Please stand by…for a change in our forums!

    The new Pearl Jam forums will have new features we think you'll love.

    what was so wrong about the old board that such a drastic change happened anyway?

    Also, besides being able to embed a video, please, what other features are there that you think we will love?

    I also notice there is nowhere for us to note our ages/birthdays. So that very nice feature of being able to wish other members a happy birthday is no more. That sucks.

    How are we supposed to know that it's their birthday??

    + The good...
    Being able to post larger photos and embed videos is great.


    -The bad...
    The colour scheme makes it very uncomfortable to read. The white background is too bright and the blue used for the usernames is too bright.
    There isn't enough distinction between a user's post and signature.
    Avatars are too small and the images look a bit distorted.
    The leave a comment section is too small...perhaps you could have that option as a quick reply and then have the option to go to a full size page to leave a comment (apologies if this is already an option, couldn't see it).

    the worst part is the private messages
    if u are the one sent the last private message you see your avatar fotot and its hard to read and search which pm u want and where is our friend list ??you could see the one u want and pm him...now is gone and cant find shit..also,cant see if your pm is readed..
    where is the birthdays??
    and why only an hour to edit??so bye bye setlist threads..sure will be nightmare for threads like Secret Santa..
    oh,very cool to see 500 members activity that they change avatar foto.. yeah right...if we want facebook we know where to go,
    really,who had the idea and when saw this said,wow!!lets do it..looks perfect...
    you wanted changes??cool,im all in for it..stop senting us email shipping coinfirmations that our orders shipped while the item is in still in production ..that would be cool for a change

    having to change my screen to 179% is something I don't love at all

    not being able to edit a comment after only 60 minutes is absolute crap

    I must be seeing things that I can only delete one PM at a time.....and that's after after two or three clicks.
    also couldn't be true that PMs can only be navigated one single solitary page at a time....

    so, posts are now comments
    threads are now discussions
    forums are now categories
    and Pearl Jam is now Asia
    no...Toto

    got it

    Yes, Dimitris is right, the PM area is also terrible now. It is going to be really hard to keep track of what's going on with those, and it is important to know if someone has read a PM.

    Getting an individual email or pop up every time someone posts a comment in a discussion is completely ridiculous. Everyone is just going to end up turning off all notifications because getting 100 emails a day or more is going to drive them nuts, and no one will be able to properly follow the threads they're participating in.

    I just don't get it. Why would 10c make their forum way worse in so many ways? To what end? Are you trying drive people off of the boards? I know someone over there is going to suggest that people just don't handle change well, but that isn't the problem here. This forum is pretty much a joke suddenly, sorry. New people are going to come on and think "wtf is this crap??

    There is no search feature. in threads or forums anymore. ....besides those names now going obsolete.


    I am really really REALLY interested in hearing about ANY feature that we will just LOVE.

    and no, being notified when somebody "mentions you" is NOT one of them..

    I thought this was supposed to be an all ages forum. So why the shift to a elementary school age forum?
