My previous post was still rather optmisitic. There are some minor issues such as my avatar disappearing and me suddenly being placed in the "Newbie" group instead of the "Members" group. Those are minor annoyances, no big deal. However, we seem to be having some more serious issues such as SQL database errors, overall piss poor performance (Really slow loading times people). The older version of IPB was already pushing the limits, but this new bullcrap is really bogging things down. No offense, but have you guys considered actually migrating to NEWER and BETTER servers instead of this imho rather pointless software upgrade (Yes, yes security is an issue as well I know)? That way the boards would at least perform well, right now, it's being really sluggish to outright slow.
Also what's with the horrible scaling? Wel not sure if you can call it scaling, because it does not scale at all. When I watch this forum on my TV I'd like it to scale like the old boards did. It's not exactly funny trying to read these forums on 1920x1080 when you can't actually read anything...
Also, what's up with the rank stars? I like the old amount of stars better, more clear. Even though the function is rather meaningless, if it's going to implented, make sure it's implented properly. So no randomness like this. Linear scale please, like before!
Sorry, but I would not consider this to be an upgrade, more like a very nasty downgrade.
