I liked the previous change, but this latest one sucks major arse. When did this happen?

There was a big thread about it in forum issues, and I think the consensus was that it would be good to incorporate the AT front end into the forums.

I like it for the most part, except for the huge blue bar at the top. That really, really needs to be pared down. :( I don't care about the one at the bottom.

The crap on the top has GOT TO GO. And the rubbish on the left is brutal, too.

Ugh.

I actually liked the last change.

Not unless you're a subscriber.
What a great "feature" to add to a service that's being taken away anyways. :roll:

Do we really need a new thread every time a little change is made to the boards?

Another thing that doesn't make any sense is why is the mushkin ad between the AT tabs and the forums? It looks ridiculous. Put it all the way up top in the whitespace, then the ugly blue bar can be eliminated.

Yeah, that is odd. I dread my subscription ending in about 5 days. I thought it had ended the other day and loaded the regular forums page - the ads are disconcerting, and I'm not sure I will be able to access it from work anymore. Woe is me!

For example:
What it would look like.

Doesn't that just make a whole hell of a lot more sense. Hey, if you had 5 extra minutes, you could even make the tabs match the color scheme picked in the user's profile.

Sorry. I don't scour the forums all day, so I don't know who's started what thread and where. I had a look up and down the first few pages and saw nothing. If you don't like the thread, don't crap it in, got it, moron?

That's much better and more logical.

to those who are constantly complaining about the forums...are you paying anything? Are you donating anything to AT to help keep up their servers/services? If not, stfu and stop whining. GET USED TO THE NEW LAYOUT.

I hate pretty much everything that's changed

I really liked the dropdown forum bar, now it's all on the left... so confusing :confused:

we probably have no effect on what happens, so we have to get used to this. :(

I used to, but now they won't take my money.
So how about you STFU.

The big fat blue bar at the top which has only small ads is the one that makes me scratch my head. Why does the bar have to be so big when the ads barely use much space.
