Manstein's revenge

Not liking it...I feel like I'm "in the weeds" now trying to find things and wading through Admin threads at the begining of EVERY thread...and then getting plopped down on the first page of a 229 page thread is extremely tedious...

Ahh yes , page 229 .

I read some forums that have a lot of traffic, so I certainly don't read every post in that forum.  But the "mark all read" option is way down on the page, requiring a lot of scrolling, through a lot of previous messages before you get to it.  Those options in that group should be up near the top of the page!

I don't much care for the changes in the website.  Of course, it isn't my call but, I just didn't see the need for the changes...

New layout? I still refer to the post 2009 layout as the new layout. This must be called the newer or newest layout. 

I actually would access the forum from my phone. But haven't done so because the formatting was too large to use, but will definitely try given a mobile version.  Way of the future.

I do not like it.  I read through the posts concerning the reasons for the change, understand some of them, but conclude they could have done what they did without changing the format.  How many of us actually access the forum with mobile devices?

I don't like it as much as before.  Too much white space, and I find myself scrolling around a whole lot.  I also miss a page that shows ALL forums with a link to them, that fit all on one screen.  That was great if you participate in more than one category of forum.

So far it all looks good to me .Yes I know these updates and changes are expensive and time consuming so the investment must be important FSM .
