àand the beauty of modern web design is that you can have it both ways with next to no work. Moreover, these poor old forums that should have been put out to pasture a long time ago already offer similar functionality.

You're a moron. img support, sigs, color support, read/unread posts, understandable last read functionality, like system, all broken.
And I'm not bringing in the visual items others complain about, because I found them mostly to be better.
NO UOI A MOROMN!!!!!
I had no problems with the new forums, some things seemed not 100% there yet and some features were missing, but it worked for me.

Originally by: Ix Forres
I can't be arsed to restate everything already mentioned but here's some "what the ****?" selections from a few moments of poking around.
18 external JS references per page. That means 18 HTTP requests per page, at least on first load, to get JS stuff up and running. Slloooow.
Gzip compression is not enabled. Could pull the page size down by ~100kb by enabling that, which is utterly trivial to do.
None of the static content (images, JS etc) have cache expiry times. This means browsers may well not cache them at all, redownloading every time they load a page. They're also not set to have cache-control:public.
You get cookies with all those images and CSS/JS files; 60kb a page load.
And according to Chrome's auditer, "122.90KB (94%) of CSS is not used by the current page." That's some prime wastage right there.
To load this thread page took 980 kilobytes. That's 4 seconds on my connection (50Mbit/s). 1 second of that is the server coming up with the page I asked for, which is pretty shoddy. Using what my browser's caching, it's still 150kb.
This whole thing stinks to high heaven of bad programming and poor understanding of what makes web applications tick.

Seriously!? Damn CCP, how do you manage that with a forum? Even with all that shiny, and quite useless fluff you had going on there.

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT! Cause it's SOOOOO convenient having to constantly disable and reenable images across my entire browser because one site I browse happens to be a complete lardass I mean EVE website is the only website on the entire interwebs amirite? 
Not that it would even make a difference, it's not just the images that cause the excessive page size, it's the blingy **** they put in that was resulting in 500kb, or even 750kb+ forum pages. Sure CCP, I'd love to download 15mb to read a thread when I'm paying $50 for 3gb... ---

Dude needs to be less silly. If css file is cached, and it contains all the css for all the pages regardless of how much is used on the current page, it's fine.

heh.
it worked, yes. but barely. there were two previous rounds of testing a ton of feedback was given about things that needed improvement. it looked like almost none of them were listened too.
It makes me wonder if we should bother giving feedback on future releases.

And is it typical for a single page on a site to use 6% of the entire site's unique CSS rules?

I could think that it would happen if, say, most of the styling is done on the thread pages (which contain a larger number of, and far more varied, elements), whereas the test was run on the topic list page. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Perhaps all the CSS for the entire EVE-Gate domain was loaded all at once... that might explain it.

Originally by: Calathea Sata Apology accepted. CCP now please prove your sincerity by your actions. Excellence. Deliverance.
I'm waiting to see it on the CCP YouTube channel... in HD.
The corruption that is now present within CCP is not just a temporary illness but a defect that is manifested deep from a more fundamental level of managements/how the company is run/how the top levels decide how the game is going to roll out. We customers are not stupid, in fact, we can be many times cleverer than the staff in CCP (see the recent forum drama) and we all know what we signed up for. There is a limit of our patience. There is a limit of our tolerance. CCP promised 18 months until the phasing out of "EVE beta" (aka the dream game) we said ok, we wait. CCP rolled out empty frameworks of features we said ok because CCP surely is going to polish it. At this point, all is fine, because we still think CCP is actually a competent company that is really going to push out the polished stuff eventually.
However this forum drama have proven, at least to me, that they are just a bunch of conceptual visionaries that have grand ideas but no clear goal and no ability to deliver it. 75,000 man hours producing this kind of forum that has no BASIC security, has bad codings/features not ironed out after two beta tests that are IMMEDIATELY improved by some scripts written by players, has a "like" function that serves absolutely NO function and is proven to be a lagsause/obviously a bad idea to begin with/a lolfeature that has GOT to be removed some day or other. Really? Excellence, deliverance, with the current ways of CCP, they are impossiblilities. This is a very obvious conclusion from this episode of epic forum fail.
Now with CCP proven to be without excellence and deliverance, the 18 months promise immediately doesn't seem so attractive or even FEASABLE anymore. Incarna will be walking in your own room. Dust will come out with only 2 maps initially and 2 guns from 2 of the 4 races, and no orbital strike. 18 months they will start saying there is too much broken features in EVE that they are simply going to reinvent them all making it a totally different game, and will happen only 36 months later.
EVE is dead. Not now, not soon. But unless CCP change their ways of doing things, all the possibilities, all the potentials, the grand visions of an ultimate sci-fi, the epic 1000 ships lag-free battle everyone dreamed about, the exciting individual features that can be fun for all types of players... they do not seem so much of a realistic probability anymore.
Regain our faith CCP. I do not wish to see such a great internet sci-fi simulator in the future getting crushed by incompetance and poor management of its mother company. We all want to see the day coming. But you guys are the ones that need to reconsolidate among yourselves. I hope this message can serve as a gentle slap in the face for CCP, and wake up the dreaming giant within you to build us that untimate galatic kingdom that we see in our dreams.

Originally by: Akita T Security holes aside, how about an assurance that user feedback will be actually USED next time you ask us to test the forums ? Or what about making the new forums not just barely functional and somewhat secure, but actually a clear improvement over the current ones in every single way ?
This
The new forums should have everything the old forums have and more. Not a mixed bag of dubious features coupled with reduced functionality. Patience is not something you guys need to worry about here, we don't care if it gets released late so long as it's better, and that it WORKS when it gets released.
It's not like the old ones are falling to bits, they'll do perfectly well until the new forums are polished to a satisfactory level.
They're probably under a time constraint or internal roadmap that builds up to DUST514. Their grand vision is to integrate both communities under EVEGate, which may or may not back fire when the time comes, imo ... but we'll deal with it when the time comes.
Good implementations can generally be identified by having met or surpassed what it replaces - measured from both internal tests and user feedback. The (temporarily defunct) new EVE forum did not meet these basic criterion. The user feedbacks were generally negative, based on the noise level it generated. I offer you, contrast that to how CCP implemented the beta Contracts Search ... note any difference?
Depending on the workings inside CCP, yes the project leader's hand may be shortened due to lack of resources - but I highly doubt that based on the time they've had building it. All evidences (the ones which are public anyway) thus far points to massive incompetence in both the code architecture and decision making process.
You'd typically be running a post-mortem on this after putting out the immediate fires, mainly to ensure that it is mitigated and never happens again by adopting (pro-actively) the learnings into an internal BKMs. Infact, large companies like Intel (for example) have an internal BKM database that serves as a sort of internal wiki for employees for all sorts of things.
