The problem with this new website are the colorscheme (the text contrasts too much with the background in most cases and too little in other situations; the text is too bright overall) and the fonts (long thin letters are never a good thing unless they spell out STOP on a road).

Fix those two things (just CSS tweaks) and the forums won't be such an eyesore. The website itself is good, however.

this thread basically sums up these forums. anything will be complained about, from the recent world event, to a change in forums layout. i sincerely hope that bioware doesn't read these forums, ever.

The new layout is great, however content doesn't seem organized. It's hard to distinguish sections of a topic from the rest of the page.
Hidden Beks -> Nightmare Lands -> The Red Eclipse

The color scheme/palette/whatever is fine, but it doesn't match well with people's brighter signatures or anything else brighter than it. Also everything feels more spaced, as if it was designed for people with bad vision. What I miss the most is the drop down boxes when you hover over certain links. It was particularly more inconvenient to look for patch notes.

Please please please make the text white, at the very least. brown on brown? What kind of crazy idea is that?

Also, the hover dropdowns were the best thing about the old forum and you took them out.

My text is a pale yellow......I think you need to do some colour correcting.

Hurts the eyes... never gonna get used to it.


Smart move Bioware... forcing people off the forums so they'll play the game (or unsub)...

And get 'em Republic Flags off the top... disgrace to the imps.

It's in effect the same type of "improvement" google did with their new look. It seems disorganized and fractured.

I liked the old view better. I had a much better overview. Sections, pictures and headlines are so big now that I have to scroll several pages. (And no, I don't consider zooming the page view a solution.) And content belonging together doesn't fit on the same (screen) page. Not everyone has a 24" monitor.

Why "fix" something that wasn't broken?
