Old is best, btw.
God you have an ugly wife then.
Or wait, is that one of those 'new' marriages? -

Get rid of the security flaws and bring them back!
The old forums feel like they've been crapped out of the '90s.
You want to know the real reason the forum, whiny minority is saying "old"?
Change. The greatest enemy of nostalgic and bullheaded people.
Utter dung. All you folks who can read faster than 100 WPM can scan the old forums quickly to assess interesting content.
The new forums make that impossible. If there is a unit of measure that contrasts the old from the new, it is the amount of time it takes to peruse quickly and see if anything is interesting. I'm almost incredulous that this wasn't the overriding factor in the new redesign, as I won't spend time tediously navigating any forum format that takes more time than the original.
Keep your stinkin' eye candy, Mr. Marcellus, I haven't got time for fluff.
Not to mention EVE-Gate is a major disadvantage too, with the new forums. Not only was EVE-Gate fail (too) on release, with sensitive character information slipping out by default, it was also quite limited and buggy.
That resembles of something else? Security risk, buggy, and half-done? -

Originally by: Lokduin Just a thought. Functionality aside, is it possible to provide the option to "skin" the forums in the old or the new style?
And change font sizes, width etc. That would make everyone happy and most of the "new or old" debate die.
The truth is we have functioning forums, whatever people think about the look or not. The major reason to make these new must be to integrate it with EVE-Gate, which happens to be a feature very few use (I don't know a single player who actually use it). Just like when CCP removed all stickies to promote their EVE-Wiki.
There was no need to rush it either, unless these new forums are part of a grander goal. *tinfoil hats*. Yup, playing devils advocate here, but maybe CCP should just stop forcing Dust and WoD-features on EVE just because CCP want to release those other games asap. -
