I hate it too. What's going on? There are bloody adverts everywhere too and I have to scroll down loads to get to the freakin' messages.... AAAGH!

CHANGE IT BACK. NOW!!!!!!

sleepyeyes · 30/01/2009 09:34

It awful, don't try fix something that isn't broken!
It's such a jumble, I hate all the forum topics not being all neat and orderly. The txt ( topic layout) is tiny and those with imperfect eyesight will find it very straining.

at scrolling past the Ads.

macdoodle · 30/01/2009 09:36

I want my watched threads and I want them now

My links i've used don't go purple any more (yes, i've tried to change it on the customize). How will i tell where i've been?

Umlellala · 30/01/2009 09:37

Ohhhh, I thought it went all different cos we just switched to Linux...
didn't MN say there would be a way of flipping to 'old MN' for those who don't like change

give it a chance!

The same people are on and that's what important, isn't it? The help and conversations and the laughs?

You want to slap me now, don't you?

it's not so bad if you change it to mn classic and refresh. The font is too small and still have white bits at the side but it's better than earlier.

macdoodle · 30/01/2009 09:40

that was for hecate

I have just written a reply on another thread that was moaning about us all moaning and "to give it a chance FGS" - wrote back saying I can?t see anyone moaning and we are allowed to give constructive criticism, post to point out glitches etc... then I found this thread
You bunch of moaners!!!!

mrsmortenharket · 30/01/2009 09:43

hate it hate it hate it

TheThoughtPolice · 30/01/2009 09:43

How do I change it back ?

TheThoughtPolice · 30/01/2009 09:44

I thought we were told that we didn't have to have it if we didn't want it ? Therefore can we revert back to MN classic like we could when they brought the 'pages' thing out ?

Ledodgy · 30/01/2009 09:44

Go to customise (by active convos), change to classic mode,save changes then refresh.

TheThoughtPolice · 30/01/2009 09:49

The Ledodgy but it still looks all weird

Umlellala · 30/01/2009 09:50

well, apart from the portrait sized advert in a landscape shaped slot (a mistake??) - I quite like it now.

Katiekitty · 30/01/2009 10:04

Oh no!

How do you save the changes to go back to the classic view? I'm doing it but it's not working!

Can't read the tiny text!

HATE that you can't see all the title in the threads!

Can't read the text to see what I'm doing!

How do you save the changes to go back to the good old days?!

Ineedmorechocolatenow · 30/01/2009 10:18

I'm trying to change to classic, pressing 'save changes', refreshing, and NOTHING IS BLOODY CHANGING!!

I normally welcome change, if it is for the better. This, however, is not.

slayerette · 30/01/2009 10:20

Oh thank goodness; I thought I liked the new look but couldn't read the squished posts so had to go back to classic. Yay! - unsquished posts!

catsmother · 30/01/2009 10:21

Looks like the only thing "classic" you can fix in Customise is the colour scheme.

I'm bloody shortsighted and THIS is extremely uncomfortable to read 'cos it's just too bloody small. Even typing out this response, the text is tiny.

Katiekitty · 30/01/2009 10:22

How do you change it back! How? How? I can't bear it! (can't read a ruddy thing)
