I can see Premium members getting more for their $20... but to start taking away stuff unless you become a Premium member is just not cool.
ok good point...how about limited to 100 unless your're a premium member?...D
Do you need a signature?

A perfect way to help instill an "us vs them" attitude on the boards.BMXman said:

Thank you, I thought I was taking crazy pills for a moment. The space has never changed, it's governed by the left column.Duffle said:
Let me get this straight folks, your panties are in a knot because you'd rather see the space above your signature, instead of below?
I didn't mean to imply that is what you were suggesting, but I have been on message boards where they did the same thing and it did create a rift between members.BMXman said:yeah that's what i'm suggesting
Premium members getting less ads and more storage is invisible to everyone else that doens't pay. So in that respect it is different.

It reads a hell of a lot easier imo...
The sentences would be further apart so it doesnt seem like its one big mass of words.
I really think the older format was easier on the eye and the only difference now is that we have slightly bigger avatars right?
I couldnt care less about sigs and avatars and someones location.
I just want to read crap about biking in a way that doesnt make my head hurt.
I like the new format, it's a bit more "work friendly".
I'm pretty neutral on the sig issue...........

So my eye naturally goes to the middle of the field, as dictated by the placement of the avatar. Unfortunately, that's where the signature is on short posts. I keep reading sigs thinking they're thread content and getting confused.
I think vertical-center-justifying or going back to the other format or getting rid of sigs would fix it, but it is bugging me now.

Actually, making the title bars of each post non-transparent would help too.
I just wish the buttons in the reply pages could be fixed.. or are those also only for the "premies?".
oh, and why cant we have 101 characters??

I think if the background for the sig was a different color or something it would be easier to tell the difference between a post and a sig. Right now it is a bit jumbled for my tastes.
Charcter count and font size limits are always good.
No, not at all. To me the posts look $hitty since the changes. It's not an issue of how much I have to scroll, more of an asthetics thing. It's not easy on the eyes.Ridemonkey said:Thank you, I thought I was taking crazy pills for a moment. The space has never changed, it's governed by the left column.

I agree. It seems more content and LARGER content has been added to the left column therefore making the excess space on the right more prevalent (sp?). Also, the characters in messages are much closer together and like others have said, making it much more difficult to read. On top of that, the transparent post-title-box is very hard onthe eyes and not appealing at all.berkshire_rider said:
As far as signatures, I know mine's a bit "long" especially in this newer format, but I don't think we should limit or even get rid of them. It seems that most are very reasonable in length with a few links and a quote in them. If somebody has one that is atrocious then simply ask them to shorten it.
Deleted because the forum is acting weird.
esp those annoying double posts.berkshire_rider said:
btw, i think the quick reply/refresh isn't working as good as pre-changes. my window just hangs there sometimes and i'm sure if the post registered or not.
I'd say yes to the 100 char. limit except that makes it impossible to have a couple of hyperlinks in your sig. Hyperlinks to sponsors or items in the classifieds work great and look clean IMO. How about limiting the text size to 1 instead or some other alternative.

When I made the first one, it hung for quite awhile and then logged me out. I logged back in 30 seconds later, and must have then created the double post. Not sure why they would be so far apart.
