This, or from the forum front page there is a “What’s New” option on the right at the bottom of the purple banner.
Nine times in ten, I'm not logged in when using the site.
Further, the site has a large number of long-time lurkers, never-time posters. The excessive amount of real estate taken up by intrusive ads will not help retain them, or convert them to logged-in users.
Actually like it, fast, new, easier on my eyes.
Only have to get used to the avatars next to the thread titles.

On the User Profile > Account Details, Last Name seems to be a numeric field, not alpha. I'd insert a Prisoner quote here but...
Re the Trophies. The Roman numeral ones. If - as seems - they are based on the number of posts a user's made, surely showing I (500 posts) is redundant if the user also has II (1,000 posts)?
Also, there appears to be no IV - is that to stop infringing the rule restricting doping talk to the Clinic?

Yes, and sincere apologies to anyone who lost their content during the migration. I spent hours trying to turn the old board into read only mode. Unfortunately the old forum software was pretty much non-responsive in the back end. Very few if any changes would "stick". While the loss is unfortunate, the good news is that this type of issue will never occur in the future. Well, let's not say never, but it is highly, extremely, very unlikely
No worries, it's a small sacrifice imo.
Am I the only one who thinks its ironic that the Julian Alaphilippe clinic thread gets recommended as "Trending Thread" in the PRR section?
The second set of Trophies , to the right of the Roman numerals, is similarly redundant. If you have the first logically you have all the others to its right and they're just wasting space (and confusing folk).
In effect there seems to be just two trophies, both linked to your number of posts.
Oh, there's a third set of Trophies, furthest left, for the number of likes. I'll guess this will have the same level of redundancy. Some people will have rows and rows of Trophies longer than their actual post.
Also, the top/bottom buttoms on the right are blocked by the "Privacy settings" that is always floating there.
After playing with the new setup for a while I am getting the hang of it. As others have stated I would perfer if we could be instantly taken to the newest comment like the previous one. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't for me. I also liked where you could type in what page you could go too instead of this new one with presets. Otherwise it is a lot easier on my phone to pick the topics I want to read (fat fingering the wrong thing was prevalent before), looks cleaner, and feels extremely good.
Hey, hiccups, bugs, quirks, and us just getting used to the forum aside, just want to say thanks for the upgrade! Lots of great additions in the new software which I think will make the community and discussions better! I think the software does a nice job of incentivizing the right kind of behavior.
Thanks for all the hard work as we onboard the new system!

The fact how excited I am about a new layout of a forum probably tells you that I spend way to much time on this site. Anyway, haven't looked at all options yet but everything I've seen so far I like.
On another note, now that we can react to posts I really have to start posting something in the race design thread again to go like farming.

Does anyone know why some posters have them and some don't ? (also just checking to see if I have them)
Yeah, we think you need to post in the new forum for them to activate. I had zero, posted, then a few minutes later they appeared.
They take up a lot of space on my phone so it would be helpful!Thanks. Was hoping there was a trick to turning them off
Like the little extra's such as putting cover photos on threads and the 'reactions' button. Working well so far.
