Ok, I'll second (or fifth) three things. First of all: Quick Reply is so tiny that I can barely even type in it. Can this be user-modified? It's very disorienting and hard on my eyes.

Secondly-the dark blue, aquamarine, white coloring is inherantly cold (ice=blue/white/aquamarine) and offputting. The orange-brown/parchment color was welcoming and warm. As it is, although the dark blue itself looks cool enough, the greyish aqua that occupies most of the body of the forum page looks dull and dreary, like dirty water. Very officelike, very corporate memo, not very gamer-friendly.

Third: By eliminating editing after half an hour, you've effectively killed four mod nations I was in the process of developing, atleast for a year or two. Please give us the ability to edit atleast the first post. It will save so many problems and so much confusion-not to mention so many posts.

Also, please keep the users in mind. A strong forum community is one of the best things Dominions3 has going for it. I'm sure there are a lot of other Shrapnel games out there that also benefit from it. It's not a threat to say that if you make bad choices about the forum, and the way it looks and works, that it's going to drive people away and make the ones who are here less active and less efficient. That's just the reality of the world we live in.

I don't hate the new board like cancer, but please don't "fix" what wasn't broken already, just in an effort to look shiny and new.
