Oooh oooh! I want to be the first to complain about the new forum! - The text is far too readable. Please make the font smaller and a trendy shade of light gray. - The text boxes are taking up 85% of the available horizontal space. Totally unnecessary. Only about 40% is needed. Please add some social media badges, article links, and advertisements for totally unrelated and perhaps even offensive items. - There needs to be a lot more white space. Mentally I can only process one or two messages at a time - with this layout I can see 5 or 6. Also I am overweight, and I need the calorie-burning that extreme amounts of scrolling provide. - The date/timestamp of the most recent message is far too predictable. Where's the fun in that? I like mysteries and puzzles - they keep me from going senile. Please select a totally random message from 2007 to be the most recent. - Navigation is too easy. We are backpackers - people who enjoy needless suffering. More scrolling, reloading, and guessing please. If we get complacent about this, what is next? Being carried down the trail by sherpas, or ATVs?

You forgot to mention the troubling lack of popups to subscribe to the magazine. That's really pissing me off.

Well, as folks around here would say, "You'd complain if you were hanged with a new rope."

There needs to be a lot more white space. Trying to drag this into TPA already? Everybody can't have space in the new board?

I can no longer instantly torpedo a thread by posting huge pictures and destroying all the margins. The stupid software just resizes my behemoth picture to the width of the text box and no more. WHY CAN'T I MAKE EVERYONE ELSE SCROLL SIDEWAYS???!! I've lost crucial powers. Grr....

The color scheme is not as depressing as the previous version.

And I miss being suspended and archived! Sort of a kinky "Fifty Shades" thing. Sorry, TMI, I know.

Dork. Go get me some salty nuts like it is a cold winter night in 2003 and entertain me.
