New look of the board...

chrome on windows, but it also happens on my iPad.

If it helps, I'm looking at the CSS and I think the .postbody style has a right margin of -220px, but the content width is still 100%, thus moving everything to the right and outside of the normal screen...

I just tried to register as a new member and also encountered the anti-bot question not answered" response. It could be I didn't answer exactly right, but I definitely know the answer so the question may need to be revised to make it undoubtedly clear?

Sorry... I know it's in the queue, but the whole text not wrapping thing is driving me insane...

I'm on a PC and it happens with Firefox, Opera, Chrome, IE, and Safari... it also happens on all of the mobile devices I use.

It makes more than half of the posts unreadable.

I'll try to get this sorted asap guys. Too many problems with the new board for the one thing the point of changing to it was supposed to fix.

So at this point, it looks exactly (as far as I can tell) like it used to. Is that true, and the security has been beefed up, or are there subtle differences I'm not seeing?

100% back to the way it was and THANK YOU!!!

To clear up any minor confusion, this is the old board again.

Hieg was running in circles trying to tweak the new board for different browsers and platforms and for the headache of having to manually manage spambots by doing admin approval for new accounts seems less a nuisance for the sake of having the old reliable board in place.

I'm not a fan of the idea of change for the sake of change as so much of the internet is all about. I prefer the CL model of slow, purposeful change but otherwise if it ain't broke don't fix it.

I fully agree! The "old and tired" feels much better than the "new hotness"

Truthfully, I was kind of excited about the facelift, but I'd rather have what works...

Thanks for all the hard work!
