    It looks more "modern", I like it, but it's little bit more complicated then the old one in my opinion. Cool and fancy. Good job. :)

    Nice new features such as likes and so on. Don't know if I like this one or old one. Still adaptation.

    - It seems faster.
    - Design seems ok, but the way the poll is displayed annoys me, buttons are ugly for that one, doesn't fit with the main design. lol
    - I don't like that I can't see "last post" for every forum/category or whatever it's called (only the main one).

    Give up the Gray color! It looks like the Windows XP professional interface with all the gray bars, it's a pain to look at. Make it brown or blue. The "New Posts" function shows new post from other language forum, should show only English since we are in the English forum.

    Faster navigation and load time. Now has private messaging and inbox. Faster quoting and reply system. Seems all good except for the above mentioned.

    Click on the "Watched Threads" tab on the top of the page. Then click "Show all watched threads." This is analogous the "User CP" option in the old forums.

    Thank you Biztart. But i already tried that. The area is blank.
    It's most inconsiderate if migrating us over to this new forum has
    deleted all record of the threads we were previously participating in.
    Most inconsiderate.

    its confusing and litle hard to understand.. but its mordern and cool looks nice.. so i dont know yet... but u could make it little like the old one... :)

    BUT
    the thing u did with the combining of the forums is the worst idea of the new forum..

    But u proppebly have ur reasons to do that so im going to see wich direction this is going ;)

    Seems many others don't like the New Posts thing either. I don't want all of the threads from all of the forums to appear there. I don't understand any of those languages and I really don't see the reason to have joined the forums. Those that speak different languages can easily jump to the other forum and read, but seeing how the majority of people speak only one language it just doesn't make sense to merge the forums.

    Also, when I click Home it brings me to forum selection page... I have to click on the English forums again. Any way to make the English forums your 'Home'?

    I don't see any Suggestion & Idea Thread anymore. Why is that? (could be me.. this is a major change and pretty confusing)

    I remember vBulletin had a PM function for users but it was blocked. Will we have one here that works?

    I'm not sure i this is the right place to ask but why doesn't my Password section work? It says I don't have the permission to use that feature or something like that. My account is registered with Syfygames, and the only way for me to get to the forums is to login to the game, go to Community tab, and click Forums. It's really annoying. I would be very happy if I could login like a normal person. :\

    Now, onto the things that I do like:
    The forum is very neat and looks more contemporary.
    Color scheme is better on the eyes. The old grayish brownish color was pretty depressing.
    The 'Like' feature.
    The 'Alert' feature. (this is awesome really. I know when people reply to my posts and when they like them... pretty cool)
    It would be awesome if the Alert showed new threads too... but then again with all the threads that are made, it would probably annoy everyone to have like 50 alerts every time they login.
