We used to have a saying at work, "If it ain't broke, make it better!" That didn't work either. To me the new TER site is just some web designer's idea "new and improved." I see absolutely no advantage over the old site.

Most change requires acclamation.
Deep breaths and read this post from the GD board; it may shed some light on WHY things were changed.

Happy reading OR go get laid!

Some pages open under the new scheme and some under the old scheme.

I also pointed out that CL has a massive database and hasn't changed their interface.

I work in the IT industry, have seen plenty of new software versions rolled out, and this does not look good so far.  I see a significant loss of functionality that was popular with me (and others from what I read).  I hope they can get some fixes implemented but even so those kinds of changes don't happen overnight.

to the new version, I imagine any links to old posts will open under the old version.

I, for one, will embrace the New TER.  I have to.  The old TER is a thing of the past.  There are two choices left to all of us now.... embrace the new TER and continue on OR leave.  I shall stay and continue on.   What say you?    No need really to bitch, complain and carry on.  Just sayin'!

The more I use it the less bothersome it is.
