Could we please have the old forums restored and use that one? This forums is to fugly to want to use. Plus its not user friendly like the old one. Toke a few minutes just to figure out how to login. As the saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it and the old forums where splendid.

These are far nicer than the old forums. It's much easier to find Dev posts, which is what I come to the EVE forums *for*, it's much more stylish, etc. The old one was so 1990s, dude.

The old ones were fine but I see nothing wrong with these either. The dev post tag is very nice too. It's just a shame the old ones didn't get carried over. So much trolling lost to the ages.Sad

As someone who likes to monkey in forum databases, I can tell you an attempt to convert everything to the new system would be... atrocious.

The newer forums are quite a bit better than the old ones, both aesthetically, and from a functionality standpoint.

Edit:

Although, I must say that CCP needs to disable nested quoting.

I am liking these new forums. I think they still need to be tweaked. but its so much easier to follow threads in this one. And because its connected with eve gate I see that People have replied and such unlike the old one. Only down side Is it is not a standard layout so you have to learn the new forums instead of just things being where your used to them being.

I like these forums as a general idea. What I do not like is the removed functionality in terms of posting images and changing post colors, etc. I also do not like it when the forums gank my posts and I just say "**** it", I cba to type that twice.
