B&M Tuesday... The new format

Yes.. I am making it Tuesday. I HATE the new format of The Bump... I don't even go over to my local bump board anymore because read ability is so horrible!  Why are they changing this? Why fix something that isn't broken! I feel like the readability is very bad. I almost get a headache when trying to go though the forums. Also My Post is not like it use too... Anyone else?  Kimbo1216: How can we talk them out of changing the format??

    I second ALL OF THIS.

    My siggy is all jacked up and I have no idea how to fix it.

    Bump Kathleen (BK) has mentioned that some things will be wonky until the changes go into affect.  Hopefully, once all the boards are changed, it will better.

    Honestly though, this is really the only board I frequent, so I'm not really sure what to expect. 

  • having been on these boards since 2005 (sheesh I need to get a life!) I can promise you that you'll get used to it. I think this is the 4th major overhaul they've done since I've been on. Every time everyone hates it, every time the world doesn't come to an end :)

    There are a few small issues I have it with it, but I've chalked those up to being beta testing issues. Thinking they'll get them fixed. Too bad there still doesn't seem to be a working search function!

  • I just went to check out my local board to see what it's going to look like and yeah...  I agree it kind of sucks.  I think what makes it look so messy is when you are viewing a post it puts a title bar with "re: post title here" above each reply!  Unnecessary.

  • I think Carla is right about the format.  It is just like every time FB changes things.  People complain about the new format, and then you get used to it.

    One thing I really don't like is when you reply to someone's post, you can't see the post when you are in the reply view.  I like to refer back to what someone said while I'm typing my reply sometimes.
