(05 Oct 2015, 6:35 pm)Dan wrote Go back to the old one then - the option is in your User Control Panel. The old version of the forum theme is no longer supported, so you'll see the navigation bar twice at the top of your screen. This won't be fixed.
We listened to the complaints and added/amended everything that was requested when we first rolled the new theme out: we had no complaints after this. As for the fleet lists/fleet news, these were changed because most of you said you no longer use these features on the basis that they replicate the news posted on the forum. Now, the news is posted on the fleet news first, and people have the option to discuss it on the forum afterwards. Again, we listened to your complaints, and made the appropriate improvements.
EDIT: Scrap the first para - Liam's removed the option to go back to the old theme (presumably because it didn't work properly!)
(05 Oct 2015, 6:39 pm)Michael wrote Alright cool, are you happy that we've sorted our problems out?
Will that bring you to come back to the forum full time....
(05 Oct 2015, 6:43 pm)Dan wrote Happy that it's one less argument per week, but it'll take more than that to convince me to coming back as a regular contributor. I'm surprised you've had this much out of me tonight..!Aye that's true... i take it work has you doing loads of hours?, that's what it feels like at college, i have homework to do.... "for tomorrow - yet to do it"... try and sit through a 2 1/2 lecture when she just talks during that whole time...........
Like I said before: this is your forum - you are the ones responsible for making it or breaking it. Once we're leaning on the side of 'making' rather than 'breaking', I'll come back. Until then, I have bigger fish to fry, and I suspect more and more people will leave the forum.

(05 Oct 2015, 6:19 pm)Michael wrote I hope you make the right choice about the moderator.... don't want someone who will over use the power....
(05 Oct 2015, 6:53 pm)aureolin wrote Opinions noted, but the site needs to be progressive - not regressive. People will get used to the change, just like they do every time Facebook or Twitter change their UI.
I think 'forced' is a strong word. Membership of the forum is an end-user's choice, unless otherwise terminated.
Give us a bit more credit, Michael. A lot of time and effort has put into this site, and certainly too much to give someone a free reign of power to ruin it.
(05 Oct 2015, 6:57 pm)Michael wrote Don't worry i am, just we don't want a moderator who will use the powers to be over powering etc.. if you know what i mean...
I'll defiantly not get picked to be in the top choices after my rant tonight............ hopefully whats being said by me and others doesn't effect the choice...

Edit now i've Missed the metro... least the Northern train is due in 6 minutes.
(06 Oct 2015, 2:42 pm)Diamond One wrote The Northern rail is much quicker that's the advantage the disadvantage it's every hour so if you missed one you would find something to do for an hour in my case taking photos of public transport
