The retro design.

The profile structure, finding likes self and received, posts.

Reps.

Forum overview.

Emoticons.

Properly working GIF's.

Everything.

The only positive change has been bookmarking.

Edit: Seems to me its not possible to add a poll after creation either, but that may have been on the last aswell.

I'm for the 3rd option - fully functional and properly designed forum. But I know that the 3rd option will stay out of the question as usual.

But wasnt the last forum fully functional?

At least sufficiently so.

I had fun browsing such a throwback-style forum.

Dont change whats not broken, something like that..

There you have your third option

I prefer it the way it was before. Its been about a month now and I still hate this.

This new forum is making me first time I wish something death

 

[bighax]

I agree. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem we're the "target audience" anymore.

 

[just1ce]

Yeah.Bring back old emotes.New ones are garbage

 

[NextGenKing]

I have not bitched much as they wont swap.

The latest post thing at bottom is huge... knowing who commented before clicking in allows me to dodge parasites like djokoking or get horny when seeing a post from @cmchelsea

 

[BodyServe]

Yeah, was so much better before the change.

At least bring back the :lol: emoticon.

This, there's no going back no matter what. Imo the change should've happen years ago, now the old users are too attached to the new design, and the new ones aren't exactly going to flock anyway. But look on the bright side – we are finally GDPR compliant.

This new forum is like an Instagram "influencer" if you know what I mean. ?

It's not really about attachment. The new one lacks basic features in exchange for what exactly?

Irrelevant of our wishes and whether we like it or not (the overwhelming majority doesn't) this thread is just a wishful thinking, the sort of pensioners good ol' times grumping party.

Because let's face it: the old forum is NOT coming back.

However, we should, we have to, it's our fucking duty too push Steve for improvements and to bring back some of the best lost functionalities.

Don't know if mentioned before but one of the things that suck on the new forum are very limited signature editing options. They used to be much better, now are very basic.

But various polls showed that most people hate the changes. And this one will as well.

Sadly all these forum changes are based on performance improving: What does that mean? Just avoid spam the most you can. Hence most of the stuff like signatures are incredibly restricted. Otoh this improves also the possibilities for ads since VS has been in a dire financial state this year.

Hence minimising service to the cheapest was their way how to handle it. Now we’re connected to every other vs forum just like the Wrestling forum and many others. The change to the new forum software was poor as well and the current service isn’t helpful at all. This place just got massively devalued by its same company.

Not sure if the intent is to compete w/ the Iikes of tennis-warehouse et aI, but so far coming up a IittIe short esp. the forum overview & revamping of emoticons among other changes.
