    I don't necessarily mind the layout, but the scrolling is so annoying. If there was a way to collapse the discussion threads so all you see is the title, and not the first post, that would be great. I know some discussion forums I have been on have a way to collapse or expands threads. Maybe, they can offer that feature. 

    This.

    I can only assume Matt knew this change was coming and wanted nothing to do with it. I would have bailed too.

    3.2 visible topics at a single time while 32 topics are available on the page.

    It's like having 1,000% zoom on your web browser.

    Isn't this what social media (and Netflix) did?

    I also don't like that you can't see the last person that posted to the thread anymore without opening it (unless I am missing something).


    Thanks. I guess I missed that. It’s harder to see than on the old format. I still wish there was a way to collapse the thread though. Maybe I missed that as well. Can that be done?

    I’m not a fan. I wish they would copy the Metallica Forum. The layout is perfect.

    Remove the two-line preview text under each topic. It's completely unnecessary and just takes up space.

    Is there a way to minimize the 'Quick Links' bar on the right?
    When the bar was on the left in the previous website, I just clicked on the vertical line to minimize it.
    Thanks in advance.

    Round avatars cut out part of the image. We went through this in another "update" and they finally changed it back after many complaints. Why revisit a rejected, inferior form of the image?

    Two Thumbs Down.  Why try to fix something that wasn't broke?  My only advice is to go back to what it was but remove about half of the sticky posts.

    You could 'dismiss' the anouncement posts in the old board. Then they would drop.

    New format is still hot garbage after getting used to.

    That would make a huge difference.   Be able to to minimize it, so subject lines and post have more horizon room.  A dark mode would also be nice :)

    I've had signatures hidden for so long that I kinda forgot they were a thing.

    We're continuing to make adjustments to the new style. The old Legacy style was no longer supported. We thank you for your patience and suggestions during this forum transition. 

    Best,
