I just want to get a feel for how you all feel about this new forum software we've been using since January.

I'm not saying I'll switch back, I just want to know what you guys think and how I can improve it for you.

Kinda what he said. Although I don't remember the old way to read unread replies. I miss being able to post pics in chat, but that's not really that important. I would like a delete option in chat, so I could delete a line I typed if I made a booboo or something.

However, I am now used to the new configuration that we have so I will vote for the new.
