Preach it, Brother. Spike them ninety-five faeces to the door. Some will notice and will look for you elsewhere. Buen viaje, Mighty Chicken, you were one of those few who made SI what it was for me. See you elsewhere ... cheers

TLC,

I agree with everything that you have said. I have decided to give the UI on the Mock Classic SI a one week trial. If I can get comfortable in one week, I will stay on SI. But I am not hopeful since this color scheme is truly painful to stay focused on and the navigation is very cumbersome.

Personally, I couldn't give a rat's ass about all of the expanded features on the new SI. Simplicity and consistency in a UI is far more important than a bunch of wiz bang crap that I will never use.

Well said.

As for myself, I still can't get used to the new GNET/SI.

talk about one sep forward and three steps backwards. I was taught by my ceramics instructor many years ago, and for this matter it seems appropriate

Form follows function!! I don't think they get it though.

P.S. Rats! Message 13000003

AMEN!!!
The new SI sucks BIG TIME!

I think they insisted on changing so they could slip in more ads. Part of the shaft they slipped in after breaking their promise not to display ads.

They deserve to go under for screwing up so badly. The old site was intuitive and simple. Even the things that were harder to do weren't very hard.

I hate this new site.

So if you do leave, where are you going? Let the rest of us know; we'll follow and let these idiots starve.
