Let's pretend for a second that the new forums are working properly without security flaws.
Which one do you prefer? New or old?

Old ones, by a mile.
The new ones hurt my head in so many ways; you can tell it was given to the art team first then shoved under some programmers nose to "make it work". I suggest CCP does another round of beta testing on it personally, a lot of issues from the first round still seemed to be in existence.

Old by far - the colour scheme gave me a headache after 5 mins, couldn't read more than a page or two at a time.

New, so long as it gets images and, um, maybe some sort of security might be a good idea too.

^^ Pretty much that.
The only thing the new forum have over this, so far, is bling. That counts for roughly nothing ù less so because you have to turn said bling off to make the actual forum functional.
I'm sure it could be expanded into having equal ù or even better ù functionality, but it has a long way to go before we get there. 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 |

Edited by: Liang Nuren on 10/04/2011 00:24:55 Old, without question. My primary complaints: - They don't look just like the old ones (I'm a stick in the mud) - The emoticons didn't work for some reason. - The avatars are too big... this really compounds the fact most people are ****ing terrible at making avatars. - The quotes are too big... and limited in number. :( - The like system is stupid. It needs limits. - They're thoroughly exploitable.
That's all I can think of for now.

Old ones by such a distance that even when you combine the top 100 of super computers in the world they would crash to put out the number to describe it.
Old just feels like home, new feel like a cheep holiday apartment, good for 1-3 weeks after that you really want your own living room, your own bed.

IF the new forums were 100% complete instead of ~85% complete and with gaping security holes, then I would definitely prefer the new forums
As it was released though... old forums for sure. The new ones were a downgrade atm I would rather be podded than go back to using that abomination of a forum. Finish it, THEN release it CCP, not the other way round >_<

Old, mostly for :
1) current/historical content threads 2) better color layout that isn't headache inducing (thank god for the Stylish mod) 3) better design layout (nuff said) 4) faster (compared to that bloated jscript monster) 5) less of a hassle (EVEgate login wtf? ... I don't use Evegate that much) 6) contents sidebar of the main Eve website .... instead of that blasted EVEGate container.

These right here, not even a split second of hesitation. The old ones, or as I like to call them now, the NEW new ones.

This sums up my practical list pretty well. and I didn't use EVE gate till the New forums where launched and I was forced to.

Agreed with most of this: Good summation.

If the new forums had some user configurable colors and such (you know like modern forum software has)... and support for the existing set of BB Codes that the old forums have... AND most importantly had all of the content of the old ones, then the new forums I think are better laid out and take advantage of accepted practices for negative space better, and I like the bigger portraits too.
Oh yeah, I think the like system, without a dislike system is pointless.

I'm used to the old forums. But the new seems to have some really nice features. Also, it's easier to look up player/corp/ally info, etc. Eve Gate's pretty nice.

I prefer the new one, visuals-wise.
Though I'll take the old ones since CCP seem to be just as incompetent at making forums as they are at running an MMO. If we really must have a new forum, just use PHPBB. Please. And give us a separate password to use for the forums too!
Also; I was quite amused to find that my predictions of massive flaws with the new forum's back end were spot on.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Spend your time doom saying and eventually one of them might turn out true. So, flame CCP for f-ing up but don't delude yourself in your predictive abilities.

New ones.
Favorites was nice. Quick reply was nice. Reading and sending Eve Mails from it was nice. Overall look and feel was nice.
Of course they have problems, though:
No images. Huge waste of space at the sides of the readable content. Huge avatars.
I like the new ones a lot better overall but some things in them (like having maybe 3 posts per screen) don't scream usability.

And I'm more broken than most, so just once for me.

I prefer web sites that are quickest without scripts running on them over those with more features.
As an example, do you guys follow any forums on TV shows?
The semi amateur forums using supposedly dated data management techniques are so much quicker and more stable than the network sites its amazing.
Two guys operating out of a rented apartment seem to beet what costs the huge companies millions in consulting fee's by huge teams of designers of different stripes every time .
Is it the non technical client (brand managers etc) demands that screw the companies sites up?
