Trying to read old threads is impossible, since you can't tell what post is in response to what post in the thread.

So the historical database will become much more difficult to use for any threads with any amount of back and forth at all.

Epic. Fail.

You can turn on global quoting - go to User CP, Edit Your Details and scoll down to turn on global quoting - makes it easier. Definitely not perfect though.

I have to agree. Not a step forward. RIP Audiworld - I doubt we'll ever see your kind again.

Super epic mega fail. The new format isn't just user-unfriendly -- it's completely and utterly useless. Good job selling out, JET.

I await the creation of a kawf or bier-based forum for audi techie stuff, and I'll see all y'all there.
