Good stuff man. The modding forums were too sloppy before. The only thing I don't like is the video and screenshots forum because I liked it old school with the Beta SSP forum, but that's just my opinion.
I don't like new format, takes longer to load, makes navigation tedious, and its just not as streamlined. Nothing was wrong with it except for the lack of search, please change it back.
It's okay, but I still don't have any info about the search. No offense, but it seems like these forums have bigger problems than rearranging the site right about now.
I'm no complainer, I just want some info on why the search has been down 2 weeks :tongue.gif:
I'm wondering if a dedicated section for 'tech support' would be useful. There seems to be a good bit of 'my game doesn't work'. This way those who care to help could read through and post on a few of them...

I like the changes, though I think the order needs to be changed so the top 3 sections are as follows:
Minecraft General
Game Modes
Servers
Why? A) Having news second seems weird :cool.gif: people will post server stuff in the single player forums because the server section are half-way down the page (and new people never look for the right section) otherwise C) those are the "biggest" sections new people will post in, so we may as well save our mods work by making sure the posts get in the right sections (news, single player and multi-player).
When the "View your posts" and the search bar will work again?
Nice job,u guys rock
I thought I remembered reading in one of the stickies that search won't work again until the new forum is out... something about having better uses of their time than making a broken search work.
Can we please get the stickies cleaned up? Especially in the minecraft general and others. At least try to consolidate them, most of them are old topics with nothing added to them in ages. We do not need two "Things that notch has said.." among many others...

"View my posts" thing was just a search that only found your posts.
And search function was deactivated because it was rather taxing for the server this forum is on.
It was taxing because irresponsible people were spamming it with fake requests that were putting a serious strain on the servers that host the forum.
