I love the picture loading speed <3 now faster than old one.

Hey man, I'm right there with you, and this isn't the first time we've gone through this. If they irritate you, just ignore them. Constructive feedback is tricky around a community this large; not everyone is skilled in expressing their thoughts, not everyone speaks english as a first language, and entitlement is a bitch. It's all part of the feedback process.

Feed back is a feed back and you can decide for your self what to do with it. You don't need to have excellent English skills to say I like the previous design more. "entitlement is a bitch" I don't know why you think people expressing there opinions on a community where there are all participating in one way or another, we are all part of the community and we should feel free to express our opinions.

Me personally I don't like the new design/layout, its a totally different then the old one. You can argue that is the same, but the only two same things are the logo/banner and the black. I personally believe being unique is a better way to go but that's just me.
And I am not talking about the backend, I understands that they did this move to improve the backend but the old layout didn't have to be killed.


Specifically I don't like the emptiness of the new layout, to many empty spaces, the like button is killing me...even FB is trying to change it a bit lol.
Also for now I think the message box lines/borders is not well defied and I almost can't see it if my display is brightness lower then 70%, which is contributing even more for the emptiness in the new layout.

I like the new design, and now posting just to see how my name will appear.

Sure there are pros and cons to any changes, but the important thing is trying to change for the better. I think this is a good start.

I feel like VIPs have too many titles, if the stars come back, we will look like the veteran war heroes.
As of now we can't change the user title - at least i can't find the option - if it stays like this, having the Jr. VIP user title and having a badge which spells out the same is a bit of an overkill imho, plus the Premium member title, i'm not really sure, if that one is really needed. If we go for a minimal look, a customizable user title, the Jr. VIP badge (one which doesn't bleed into the avatar lol) and the stars would suffice.

I'm not a designer, but i just made this quick:

Less busy, everything is aligned to the left, badge is smaller, cleaner, doesn't bleed into the avatar.

Other than that, what's really important, that the site is real quick and the new features are awesome.

agreed!

Why i get god damn alert when someone post in thread but didn't quoted me?

I love the new look of the forum. They keep it up, they're doing a great job!

no more stars and colors it looks reallly bad i dont know who the hell guyz were in beta testing

Loving the new BHW. I can see how much work you guys have done to bring this online. Really great job.

Another change which I don't like is the page length of each thread has been reduced considerably. I have noticed that the thread which have had like 2-3 pages, are now showing 5-6(almost double). Frankly, I really used to like this feature of BHW. When I visit other similar IM forums, all pages of each thread finish pretty soon like after 5-6 posts of the users but it was not the case here. Now, we need to click and visit more pages of each thread to go through the BHW content which is really really sad.

Obviously this has been done to increase the page load speed but at the cost of 100's of extra pages , its not worth it.

With time changing is must. but to become use to of new look takes time.

I kinda agree. Site looks so spacious..

I must say that was a pathetic update. Everything cluttered, 20 posts per page to increase stay time. At first, I thought I was having problems as it was new to me but now I know that wasn't it.



How can this hotchpotch be better than the clear and soothing previous version?

Everywhere this bum, big profile picture makes space pretty tiny.

I myself like the new version better.
