New Benzworld look

G'day Folks,

I'll probably go straight to **** for this one (!)

But what do you all think of the new benzworld layout?

I'm not too keen on the side bar lay out and I think there's not enough differentiation between stickies and normal threads...

...and it all seems a bit grey...

BanZWorld is still the same BanZWorld. Same idiots, different layout.

I like it.

The W123 section is good. It's the reason I'm on there.

Admin posted a way to get the old view back, which I think is better.

Change for the sake of change is moronic. No new features, just a different layout. Bleh.

To their credit, though, it doesn't look like they broke anything.

Is it still incredibly slow to log on, and move from one thread to another ??? Wish the speed issue would be addressed.

The folks of BanZWorld suck more than the new theme itself.

You of all people got banned?

Well it does sound like there's been a whole heap of trouble in the past.

My experiences have been different.

I was half thinking that perhaps the layout changes there had coincided with a vbulletin software upgrade that might mean eventually this site would also look like that...

Oh yes my friend, I use to be quite the trouble making drunk. Praise The Lord Those days Are Behind Me.
