The New Forum Software!

[Saxon]

Funny, every time some one expressed a dislike of the forum order, they were directed to the poll and asked to vote. Seemed pretty open, fair and relevant to me. I liked the reverse order, so I took the time to go over to the thread and voice my opinion. It was available to all and it was used by a fair number of people on both sides of the issue. Seems to me that calling it irrelevant is sour grapes. We voted, we lost, we live in a democracy. Well, actually, I don’t really live in a democracy and I am not allowed to vote where I live, so I am particuarly appreciative when someone like Shrapnel gives me a chance to voice my views.

I don't think anyone "lost" per say. Richard hasn't given the word that "I can't allow this other sorting method! It won't work" and it may, in all reality, be possible and implemented in a timely manner. It's far to early to tell.

Regardless, the fact that the poll was there and it did at least give thought (plus the years of critisms, Emails and various other comments Shrapnel has recieved, no doubt) to allowing both methods instead of picking a forum software that only needed reverse order.

I like the new forum style. It was confusing reading the post backwards.
Especially when you are used to read forums forwards. It was the first time I've discovered a forum board was "upside down" and I never got used to it.
So from my point of view it's an improvement. Also the new look makes it more easier to browsing.
