Default Forum Rearrangement

Hey everyone, the site has gone through a site rearrangement. The forums look a lot cleaner now and is easier to navigate where you want to go. There are no more subforums that are hard to find and some of the forums have been consolidated.

This should make it easier for everyone.

The whole site is full of red X's on my end, and I still have to sign in every day with my board name, and password. I don't understand why things needed to be fixed, when they weren't broken in the first place? Change can be good in some instances. It can also make some people angry if it's too drastic, to the point where they don't come back. Rearranging a site is not gonna make it busier. Not complaining, just pointing that out from a members point of view.

there is a new owner.... that is why the changes are being made. It is what he wants. I guess wait and see the finished product and voice any concerns or issues after that.

the password/sign on thing you are experiencing really has me bewildered... I havent seen anyone else have it or at least voice a concern over it. When the server switch first took place I had to resign in.. but not at all since.

maybe check your cookies? Not sure... wish I could figure it out for you

also.. yep.. I got the RED X's too... and a TON of them

It's pretty annoying having to sign in all the time. Even if it was just the password, but I have to put in my board name, too. It isn't doing it on any other sites, so I too am baffled. Glad I'm not the only one seeing red X's. I thought it was on my end.

The red X problem seems to be okay now. However, I'm not liking how the forums look now all congested, and jammed tight together. What happened, and why do they need to be so close to each other?

lol there ARE GOING TO BE CHANGES.... obviously the new owner wants to make things a bit different lol

It's not gonna be the exact same as it was before he bought it... IF I bought it.. I would change a few things as well...

I'm glad the X's are gone.. that was annoying for a while

I dont see the Forums "jammed" together

however I do see the THREADS when you click on NEW POSTS are a bit closer together than normal... seems a bit uh...crunched

The "User CP" is at the top under the big Card Board Connection banner 2nd from the left.

Have you checked your trade agreements and are they there now?

Mine are still there.

That may be part of the problem. The sub-forums definitely need some spacing between them, as they all look like they run into one another this way. Maybe, Mike's not finished tweaking it yet, so I'll be patient.
