    I just tried the forums on my desktop, about 5% of the forums is cut off on the left side of the screen, anyone else have that issue?

    Yes. I'm running Explorer.

    You forgot to say the magic word and click your heels together three times before hitting the search button. It's a common rookie mistake so no worries.

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    This is beyond boring!

    I still hate the new layout. I spend about 5 minutes on this site a day now as opposed to the couple hours. I'm very angry with the 10 club for forcing this unnecessary change on a site that I fully enjoyed before. I used to look forward to reading about and debating everything from the music we all love (and hate) to politics to what was the last song you heard before you went to bed. Now, I dread hitting the pearl jam bookmark on my phone because this new layout is HORRIFIC!

    I will not cancel my subscription, I simply won't be in the boards as much. That may make some of you happy, but it saddens me.

    Do you think someone's nephew made a convincing sell that he was an expert web designer?

    seems that way

    Much Needed? Can you say BULSHIT?!?!?!?!

    We recently made some much-needed changes to our forums. Because of the high volume of traffic and activity caused by our active and growing fan-base, we switched our forums platform to a hosted solution that offers substantially more options and the ability to handle more traffic.

    We're aware that there will be some growing pains for the users and we will be monitoring the boards for suggestions.

    The moderators have created a dynamic post that covers tips and features associated with the new forums.

    Go forth and POST!

    I rarely log on anymore, only log in to respond to PM's.
    I cannot read this board anymore, it is very hard with supersized signatures to read, gets confusing.
    Poor form 10c, we all paid to be here because we liked it how it was, now you've changed it for the worse.

    Have you applied the script that fixes the viewing issues? There is a thread on the Porch. Very effective. Now all we need is for the search function to work and it will be all good for anyone who downloads the fix.

    That only changes the colour from white to black?
    I read that 10c are working on fixing this board?

    No, it does a lot more than change the colour (and btw, the "white" option isn't really white. It's grey and very easy on the eyes - I personally like it more than black, but you decide. :) ) And yeah, 10C is supposedly working on some changes, very very slowly, but if they haven't changed the colouring yet, I don't think they ever will.

    I downloaded the "white" and the "Legacy" scripts and both have definite advantages but neither one includes the "Participated" option which I liked so now I'm at an impasse here again.

    Brian, Leeze figured out how to get that. Just bookmark this page: http://community.pearljam.com/discussions/participated
    And then just go to it when you need it while you're logged in using the new script. Works just as well as having the button on the page. :)

    And if you are in the black theme, go to "mark all viewed" to see the thread titles, since they are all black on black.

    This reminds me of living in a very small town many years ago trying to listen to the last game of the world series, hovering over the radio and trying to tweak the dials to get reception. A lot of bother. But hey, enough grumbling. I truly do a ppreciate the efforts Mike, PJ_Soul, Leezestarr313 and others have made to make improvements here. I hope 10C is doing the same.

    I'm used to it now and I like the look of it much better than the old forums.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Yeah, with the fixes from MikeD88, it is a new and more pleasant experience. Somehow though, the whole vibe on here is different. Makes me sad. Will we ever find our forum vibe again?

    No, but I don't think necessary that is a bad thing.

    Interestingly enough, once the changes were made, the high volume of traffic and activity was dramatically reduced because of the changes.
