Yeah, I have to use IE to check my Mom's e-mail for her and it's just so pathetically horrible.

I use FF3 and haven't had any problems with logging-in, and it stays logged-in. Boards are also pretty fast, though that's probably because I have Adblock.

using FF3 on a mac. I have to log in every single time i visit the board and after logging in, i have to wade through 2 screens to get to the main Raptors board, bit to much work if ask me.

the new layout is a nice change but theres a few kinks to roll out...the color theme needs some dark, the interface is too light.

i'm starting to get used to the look and feel, but the banner at the top is WAY too big and the slideshow thing is too big also. the topics start 2/3 of the way down the page.

Really bad design for the thread listing page...it would work okay for a sub-forum list, but not actual thread titles. What an eye sore.

Ive been reading posts on here for a few years, and posting every now and then. Since the site switched to the new layout, I havent been able to see any of the posts. I click on a topic, and it says, the selected topic does not exist, or cannot be displayed. Can someone please help me, and let me know what im doing wrong. Thanks.

Could the option of using the old theme be implemented in user profile so users can use the old theme if they prefer?

I've basically stopped visiting the site. The comments are almost 99% against this change. The powers that be need to rethink this, because it's not an improvement for your users.

is it just me or has the traffic for the site just not been the same?

I noticed it too... I'm guessing people are a bit more reluctant to post due to the new layout. Definitely a huge reason is due to the quick reply, but we'll be getting that back soon...

I haven't had anything close to that problem. Maybe try using firefox instead of IE?

This was a problem on the old forums, but it's become a HUGE problem with the new layout: the default number of posts per page. Why can't users set how many posts they want to view per page? Why isn't the forum default something respectable like 20, 30, or even 40 posts per page? I would have to have 100 posts per page -- even 50! It's so incredibly annoying having to go page-by-page...

The main reason I created an account was because I assumed I would have control of how many posts per page there are. Sigh...
