I hate this new forum

It has a lot of flair, for some reason. I am old and resistant to change.

I rarely use my phone for forums. Too busy playing mobile games on it. With that I donā€™t find them much different than the old forums. The scrolling will take some getting used to though.

Pages are OK, but you can click the little bookmark icon and save individual posts, so if you need to reference a specific post, you can do that instead of a specific page.

Definitely not a solution to pages, but it might help!

Itā€™sā€¦different. It will certainly take time to get used to, but I think it could grow on me.

I naturally hate anything new so Iā€™ll hold judgement for now. However, one objectively terrible thing is that you need to scroll a lot more since thereā€™s a ton of dead space between posts. I really dislike when websites revamp themselves to look fancier at the expense of usability.

I suspect I will like it once I get used to all the new things.

Right now, Iā€™m all glaring at my screen all how do Iā€¦ and what does this do and where isā€¦ and grrrā€¦change.

Two things I dislike about it is that you canā€™t post links until a certain level is reached, and you have to go a bit of a ways to see someoneā€™s profile.

At least they kept the colour scheme.

Iā€™m giving it some time but yeah I have already observed some annoyances like the scrolling that I donā€™t know if I will get over lol

Itā€™s too cluttered. Lots of unnecessary information going on.

I donā€™t want to use complete sentences.

I donā€™t want to post at least 10 characters.

I liked having pages so that I could bookmark progress in the thread.

The margins are weird, and the spacing for height makes each post too tall. Itā€™s a chore to read anything. Itā€™s like a stocky, chubby kid.

I was excited for the forums and have always been on forums, but this is not the correct route for WoW forums.

Normally, Iā€™m the first to completely hate change, like almost every youtube change, most Chrome changes, etc. But this time around? I donā€™t completely hate it.

Thereā€™s some problems here and there that happen and are mildly irritating but if they get fixed and time passes people can and will get used to it.

I figured itā€™s because you can no longer make stupid panda threads youā€™re so fond of.

Refer to the syntax guide. You cannot post a live link, but can post one by placing it in ` marks resulting in a text only link that can be used to visit a page manually.

I actually like it better on my phone. there is still alot to get used to but I donā€™t mind the infinite scrolling on the phone
It felt weird on desktop though.
