My credo
Break it right the first time. Fix it better the next time.
Jim has streamlined this forum for mobile and pc use. Not everyone is going to like it. I for one am very happy with it. It loads quicker on both platforms and is easier to navigate. Just my two cents.

There are SO many cool things about this new forum software, I can't help but like it. @Jim Oaks did an awesome job. Sure, there are some things that I wish were different, but maybe those things can come, in time.

My guess is, you'll eventually get used to it. It's in our nature to not like change, although some people thrive on it (me not so much, but in this case, I want(ed) to give it a chance. You never know, in time, you might even like it.

I don't hate it, but I'm having a tough time adjusting.
Old habits are hard to change.

Nobody likes change, but sometimes you can't avoid it. I didn't want to change the forum software, and actually put it off for a long time, but I was finally forced to. I'm mostly happy with it, and even though I know some won't be, I have to do what's best for the site in the long run.

I like it. I like seeing the recent posts on the right. Everything else is really really similar so you just need to get used to the font being different and circular picture frames lol.

If you don't have time to do it right will you have time to do it over?
I like it now that I'm used to it.

My credo
Doing things wrong, until I get it right.
As a fairly new member, I was just getting the hang of navigating around and finding things. The new format i cleaner and more organized. Not that the old one was unorganized, just different. Pics are easier to load, new posts are easy to find and the tool bar stays at the top of the screen so you don't have to go to the top of the page to navigate. Awesome:yahoo:

I’m not smart enough to know about software or the inner workings of things.

I like sites by the content of information and people.

I like this site.

I have an old tab in Chrome on my tablet that opens to the old version of the page still. I keep it for nostalgia and stress management.

There are a couple of really minor things that I haven't quite gotten used to yet but overall I think the new software is working great. Keep up the good work.
