Especially the discussion forums... I think the new format makes it more difficult to sift through the threads and spot the good ones from the dull.

I know marketing always calls for change, but I'm one of those who hates change.  It was just like Ebay, once I was totally familiar with the entire site and how to make the most efficient use of time while surfing it, they change everything around and I start all over from scratch.  I get frustrated and move on to a new one.

Same old look for 4 years... we have ton's of features to add and decided the site needed a face lift.

I like your current website much better than the new one that's in beta.
