Wow even the reply window is a pop-up, wtf?

And wtf is with the "recent posts" thing? It displays them by activity. I'd rather it go by last post made. I have stuff at the top of the list that I posted in over a year ago and don't care about, while stuff I want to check on that I posted yesterday are gone.

Hate it:
1) The emoticans suck. (Is there a suck emoticon I can use?)
2) Why is the forum on Greenwich Mean Time?!

How do you sort your posts where you only see what was posted today rather than the ones that got bumped to the top?

I suspect that's deliberate, to discourage gratuitious neffing. On the other hand, it's possible they just haven't fixed that yet.

I do not like the changed Today page layout either. I want to see my last twenty posts, not the threads I posted in which have more recent posts.

W...T...F?

:Q

There is way too much unnecessary things on the page now. For example, the useless color bar between each post, and the "Report this to a Moderator" between each post.. makes it look cluttered, IMO.

I do not like this.

All the custom titles are gone?

This 'secret question' keeps popping up when I switch forums....:|

No today button? j/k ;)

The top buttons below the pulldown menu on the right, the search, and my froums, ones are java based or something so in Opera the open link in background by clicking the scroll button doesn't work.

Something that will take awhile getting used to.

Anyone having trouble middle clicking the Search, My Forums, etc buttons? I'm using Firefox, btw. Also, for some odd reason, I'm getting two calendars on the search page (without clicking on the calendar button) and I can't close them! Also, I tried viewing the same page in IE and it works fine... but with Firefox, it has an author search at the very bottom but not in IE.

Too cluttered and I can't seem to get a color scheme I like. Also the colored bar between post is annoying.

Both of those new "features" are pissing me off, too.

It also seems A LOT slower than before too.

EDIT: Plus it seems im still subscribed to all my subscribed topics even though they don't show up in the list.

Yup. I keep getting "Server Error
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.
JRun closed connection.". Happens roughly 1/3 of the time that I click "edit" "quote" or "reply".
