Default I will admit that I like the modifications the new AW has implemented.

I just wish IB would have tested everything out prior to the live switch. Now we have a forum that has lost a majority of it's members to QW. I am afriad that for many these recent changes or knowledge of these changes have come to late and they have gone for good. Sigh.

A couple of suggestions on further enhancements:

Will vB allow the most recent post to be post at the top of the thread under thread starter?

I like the sticky function and the ability to sort by thread start time, this was one of my main issues with vB. Also, like the fact that a read post now shows in a different color indicating that I've read it. Thank you.

In threaded view, in the forum view, you will (or at least should be) seeing PIC and URL.. We're working on the NT icon, and other formatting issues currently. I'm trying to get them to re-order the posts so newer ones appear on top, though that was an option in KAWF ( I believe the default, I'd have to look) anyway, and I have a feeling they tried to emulate THAT instead of the generally preferred newest posts on top way.

Just know that Jason and I are doing everything we can short of driving out to LA and actually forcing them to make changes, which now that I think of it, might not be a bad idea! =)

it's funny, while I eventually got used to KAWF over the 3+ years I used it, I switched to 'linear' mode because that's what I'm used to on all the other boards I visit and have managed. To each his own, I suppose. Hopefully the changes will be enough to sway some people to come back

Default Both views have their advantages

It's good to be able to switch depending on my needs.

Definitely some HUGE improvements.....I'm still struggling with some of the idiosyncracies of thie change. Maybe I'll learn with time, as we all know ISATI. Still, huge props to Kris and Pierre for pushing some needed changes through.

4D4's been pushing hard too...poor Kris has been the go-between and i'm sure his head is spinning.
