Something changed in the forum

For quite a long time, i didn't like the fact that the left column of the forum was loading before the forum itself, making it a bit harder to read...so today i'm trying a small change: that column will be on the right, so that forum content should load faster and earlier.

How do you like it?

While you're at it, why not make it so we can scroll manually -up or down- in the "most recent topics" column?
(Or is theree already a wat to do that?)

As it is, (unless I'm missing something) you hve to wait for the list to scroll up automatically, and then if you click on a topic and come back to the column afterwards you have to start all over again at the top of the list and wait next thing you wanted to see to scroll up. It's very unwieldy.

Also, there are only so many (what, seven or eight?) topics at the top of the list at any one time, and so I assume a lot of threads get buried before many of us even know tey're there.

Very true, that's indeed another annoying thing... need to look into it. Thx :)

I visit this form for a long time (about 4 years I guess)

And I honestly didn't like it. Maybe because I was used to the column in the other side...

But anyways it's not a big deal. I can adapt to it.

This will not change how amazing and fanstastic this forum is.

and sorry about my english! :)

I liked the column loading on the left and first, because it has the login controls and I have to login first to be able to utilize the forum properly, so it does not matter that the forum loads first.

I think it's just a case of being familiar and comfortable with the old layout.

The new layout is fine by me as well, just takes a little getting used to.

Let's keep this discussion open. I don't want to force anyone in adapting, it's just that i thought a faster navigation to the forum contents would have been good :)

Is anyone else with me on the "most recent topics" column?
Why not just have a page with a *stationary* list you can navigate manually without waiting for it to scroll?

Is there some technical reason it's more difficult to set it up that way (more difficult to maintain or something)?
Because if not I honestly don't see any logical justification for keeping it the way it is.

notalwaysright10000 i just need to find the time to study on it. But i totally agree on you about the changes to be made.

Again, problem is lack of time...mind you...i wanted to move the column on the right since...1 year? And i found the time just now... so...be patient and enjoy the forum as it is :)
