It's quite a change on the old one, but looks great. Very classy I reckon

I like it, but is there an option to blank out signatures and graphics and stuff?

Unfortunately there isn't an option to remove the ads and things yet, but we're looking into ways and means of getting rid of them.
 
Any other questions about the new forums, fire away and I'll do my best to answer.

Oh I like. In fact I am very impressed. Especially with the date saying "today" on any posts from the last 24 hours. That saves me the slight effort of reading the  date on posts.

Well,it is a different format and I will have to get used to it, but what gets this forum going is the posters not the format. So posters continue with the god work!

True Rifat, I also noticed, before there used to be like 15 users maximum, including the guests.

The search facility has improved quite a a lot as well

I would love to change my Birth date everyday.

I love it now.

I don't like the option to delete our own post.

When I signed on the forum, for a moment, I thought I was on the wrong forum.

It is pretty cool, I didn't notice it. Putting stuff in bold or other things is easier now.

Its much better than the old one but honestly, it isn't AMAZING. There must be some better templates than this one. You guys could even install free templates from some websites.

Well I hate it!! I obviously have a problem as I can't read posts with quotes within them (most of the text is missing). There is no demarkation between posts - no lines whatsoever and it's just white and lilac colouration!

Probably my browser , but my system here might not allow an upgrade. I'll speak to IT , but if I can't upgrade that'll be my lot.
Mental disintegration works for me !!

I am having no issues with it, just trying to get used to it.. I am using Avant Browser 11 and sometimes I used Opera Browser, or firefox or Internet Explorer 7 ( 4 browsers)
Avant is handling the forum fine.

My question to the mods or Admin.

Did you remove the option to delete our own post?

I like the new look, and the new topics. Saves people a lot of energy as we will be able to know where to post which thread withuot much difficulty and it will also save the Mods energy of deleting threads (will continue in lesser amounts), but the only drawback is the fact that almost all the foums look like this oen and some pages are a bit unclear, like the homepage when you click "Forum." Plus, you can't PM a member as easily as before. That icon is missing. The other one was way better. Different from others and the colours are a bit too bright.

Ok, I still don't like it. We seem to be getting a sub topic for just about every post now and the presentation's still all a bit average.
 
If the world was different, I'd say what I really think, but I won't.
