Am I the only one who is annoyed by the "new" forums update?

Where did the "Levels" of users go? (I forgot how they're called). Where did scrollable signatures go? Why does the forums seem buggy with this update?

It just doesn't seem right. I know that for most of you this may be a minor issue, but for me... Oh boy. That hurts. With this design update some of the fun of the forums has gone away. I was just used to the older version. I don't know how about you guys, is this liquiding you off too? Why did they even have to do that, it was okay. Kinda like mobile version of YouTube, if you know what I mean.

Forum updates are critical for security reasons, and almost universally come with "features" that break custom forum setups and change vanilla ones.

It's just a fact of the internet.

i just wish when they used this excuse they would only update security.

You can't "only update security." You update and get everything or don't update and get hacked.

linux has been doing it for years. you can upgrade the security at the kernel level and leave everything else alone.

Sorry I should have been more clear.

You can't "update security" with forum software. You can with Linux because Linux is written to do that. Forum software is not and I doubt it ever will be.
