    THIS!!!!


    And also... Do we have the option to change the skin on this board?

    I hate the look of this board... so F*ing annoying to view!!!!

    Keeps me from being glued to the board though... and no i won't get used to it.. i only viewed the other board in avo light or festivus.... HATED viewing that in the other skins too....

    Too bad both boards can’t co-exist. The Helter Skelter that ensued when something big happened was every entertaining.

    Feature from the old board that need to be implemented here:
    Rollover thread to preview
    Better color schemes - easier on the eyes
    Check mark or different thread icon for threads you've posted in

    The trading from the old board doesn't seem appropriate here ;)

    I'm going to miss all the people that are excluded from posting here, and the layout. I like the new design, but it's more of a pain to have to lookm to the right to see whose posting, whereas the old forum had the name right above the post. (Some/most forums usually put the avatar/postcount/name/etc info on the left, so it's the first thing you see when reading left to right)
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    i miss quite a few things:


    firstly, board skin choice! this place is FAR too flashy, most especially the giant banners top and bottom. we need a 'faux-excel' skin.....a 'stealthy skin'...whatever you want to call it, just something PLAIN and semi-businesslike for those who post from work.

    i miss the mouse-over preview function BIG-TIME!!!

    no more birthday listings....no really good memberlist.........errrrr.....think that's it. dunno.


    oh...i miss SPEED! this place is soooo slow in comparision. i hate having to click on a thing to be able to go and see your post right after making it. i miss the little symbol showing you that you posted in a thread, i miss the little chek mark next to threads you subscribed to.


    oh and i was a marker in the sand when the board closed.....altho in reality, if my boardnames were combined and accurate ;)...i'd have been 1/2 full.....how appropriate. :P
    i'll ride the wave where it takes me

    ALSO miss being able to search for threads created by user, not just posts......much more time consuming.
    there was something else in my mind, but now....*poof!*....already gone, damnnit..... :lol: :evil:

    I've had trouble with that on and off. Some times I stay logged in and other times I don't. I don't get it either but I'm glad it's just a simple click. :? :)

    one thing i will miss is when you put your mouse over a thread title the old pit showed a preview of what it said so you didn't have to open it. the new one just says new posts or something.

    fuckin' amen to this!

    Ohh nice one! I'm going to miss that too.
    Also going to miss my post count. Looks like I'm starting from scratch here.
