    Is there no way to get my sigpic back? It seems to be missing. Also the new tab where is that found?

    How do you view groups you are part of with the new layout?

    Definitely like the old forums better, they seemed way easier to get around and overall seemed cleaner to me.

    Sorry BeamNG Team but #BringBackOldForums

    Wow, much better now. I still prefer the old forums but the margins on the sides and the reordered front page improve it massively. Now all we need is a color palette that isn't garbage. :) (and maybe vBulletin smileys?)

    You need to understand that the dev team can't fix the new forum in 2 seconds. Rome wasn't built in a day...

    We aren't interested in reintroducing security holes and bugs into the forum. Just give this time and you'll get used to it.

    There's a picture changing in the background, it was mountains, then a house, and now a savanna. Are you playing tricks on me?

    I honestly prefer the former, but the latter is alright, although there isn't much more charcoal grey to go with the rest of the site.

    Number 2 imo, looks pretty sleek without looking cut off from the background

    I think I prefer #2 there tdev.

    Also, while the forum looks stunning at 1080p, it looks rather cramped and odd at 1280x1024. I know non-widescreen is getting older, but I thought I would bring it up.
    I especially love the new way signatures look, though avatars seem to scale oddly. Also, I'm assuming out like counts have been reset, but what other stats and info has been kept/lost, what do our titles mean? Do messages still not include offtopic? General questions like that.

    "Well-Known Member"?

    I feel as if this is a tag applied ironically.

    I like two better. Plus a lot of the backgrounds are really zoomed in and blurry for me :/
