      Why would you remove that part on the website that has tabs of every bot and shows what the new posts are? It makes no sense.

      Tons of stuff from the old forum is gone, I hope they slowly "restore"them, or at least some alternatives.

      And please - fix the terrible pseudo-serif font for the body text - it scales very bad and its italic is too curved, like handwritten - make it Tahoma/Arial like headers please!

      Reading with this font burns my eyes! - Book Antiqua

      Reading with this font burns my eyes NOT! - Tahoma

      Reading with this font burns my eyes NOT! - Arial

      I don't like it. The only section i looked at was the recent posts at the top.

      I'm working on writing my own recent posts section for the top of the forum. While there is already an existing one, its from a Vietnamese website with a dubious history and seems to be unsupported anyway.

      The font being used is a mix of Georgia and Tahoma, not sure where your getting Book Antiqua from.


      I wasn't even aware vbulletin had shortcuts.

      It looks fixed now. Thanks!

      I used the default font in my original post, It was a serif one, very badly readable in italic, so I assumed its Book Antiqua, sorry.

      Reading with this font burns my eyes! - Georgia
      Reading with this font burns my eyes Not! - with Tahoma as default it kicks !!!

      Old layout was PERFECT.

      Why fuck with something that isn't broken?
      Now it all looks like shit. Graphics like they were made for kids, layout, fonts, etc.

      If you wan to to see an example of a good forum that is actually readable, go to http://www.mmo-champion.com/forum.php
      Everything is tight and in one place. You don't have to scroll 20 screens just to read through 1 thread. Also all-white background is too bright and hurts they eyes, can't stay for more than 10 mins on it.

      Kuat is indeed right.
      1. We need Black/Gray Theme/Style for the forum. The nearly-while background is too aggressive and burn eyes in long run.
      2. The forum layout have too much empty spaces between posts:
      Old: https://gyazo.com/b2bfa28305dc639c1256cff8e9544e66
      vs
      New https://gyazo.com/3fd4d5f4364445cffabfecb28cbc268c
      Even 1 line comments are taking visually ~ 50% extra space.
      3. The Report, Reply, Like etc buttons are looking like lost in the space - too small compared to the tons of white space around!

      Not a big fan of new layout. It seems like a huge step back in functionality to be honest...I can only ascertain this is part of cost cutting measures as I see prices have been raised on products.
