In a way, this is back to the old way, but in some aspects a bit late as we were probably all just getting used to the new format.

User design thy name is NOT TER.

I just realized (by looking at the "classic" site) that one of the major differences is that everything is now on the left side, whereas the original was shifted to right (to clear the left nav that no longer exists).

I'm still undecided if this is worse than before or not.

A return to normalcy...

I just noticed this a few minutes ago.  The return of the original format of seeing the entire thread at a glance without having to drill down on them is the most welcome change yet.  If they eliminated the bouncing post issue, even better.  The rest of the changes I can live with, and in some cases, welcome.

ohhh that's really cool...more like the old board...yuppieee!!!

Now, if they just get rid of the 'post bumping' situation, the new board will be perfect.

RE: Why do you keep changing the format!!!!!!!!

I actually like this format. It's now a hybrid between the old and the new. My .02 cents, I'm good with it now.

Hate to disagree with my ATF, but I like this. Like Crazy said, I hate drilling down to see who responded. I do like the most active posts staying near the top. Shows what everybody's talking about. Like the NYTimes most emailed list.

In the last version, I kinda liked the distinction (via an icon) of ad's/non-ads posts, which is now missing?

format with the new. The thread bumping has also been eliminated. This is a big step forward.

Monday. I approve very warmly to it.
