So, this new forum overhaul is definitely a thing, no doubt about that, it exists.

So far, I like it! I just think that maybe ZOS should dim the background a bit, its still kinda bright (imo).

It will, however, take me a while to get used to this new forum layout and structure :P

    including @names is a pain in google chrome as they frequently auto delete...haven't really figured that one out yet. Also if @names and links could have their color modified to stick out a tad bit more, I would appreciate the improved visibility of links.

    It's bright? I guess I'm lucky I have my screen contrast low, I'd hate to see that.
    The structure is nice and smooth though, I like it.

    I'm pretty sure this brown/beige background was chosen because it is probably the least glaring background and is a pretty neutral color . . . perhaps you are used to looking at the intense midnight blackness of the Reddit forums lol.

    Yes, I am very sensitive to any trace of bright colors....

    Yah, I find the font really small and thin, it strains my eyes so much to read it, especially on the 'brighter' background. As for the new format, looks great! Testing boldness...

    It'd be really nice if we had access to alternate skins for the forums. Or the ability to tweak the colors we see locally. I tend to browse in a dim room, and the forum has always been kinda harsh for me.

    Nope...Im a bit older than that. My cafeteria was bright, sterile and there was no fun to be had due to the micromanagement.

    Or everyone is complaining about the lack of food options because the ingredients were nerfed.

    At least we don't have to contend with ingredients that are so foul the place believes it's flat out profanity, now. That said, who wants some shank steaks?

    lmfao.... I actually think this reply is epic. Lighten up people....... I too would like some options for the display of the forums, however it's not a big deal nor a priority. To top it off, browsers with Add-ons should have ways to handle that yourself for the time being.
