Although the original version of elynah was old, it was still "ours" and easy to navigate.  This version (in all due respect) is horrendous. I'm out.

Not like anyone cares.

I'll direct you to the sticky/pinned thread on the hockey sub-forum.

In short: Age had to quickly respond to issues and got it up & running with a default rudimentary theme. Aesthetic changes will be coming. In the meantime there are color choices in the footer for you.

Honestly, I'm still really grateful to have something that's on its own server and not in an algorithm-driven walled garden.

And doesn't have 15 million ads that you have to painstakingly click around or you get free malware...

This may not feel like home yet but I liken the ability to post here and not the the USCHO Message Board to the luxury of having a WHCU radio feed and an ESPN video feed. We lost that radio broadcast extra.  I am VERY grateful for this forum.

I'm grateful as well I just miss the old elynah. Progress isn't always for the best.

if you miss the color scheme, so be it, but the navigation is great and the layout is simple. I'm good.

A few new features help with navigation and keeping up with new posts with fewer clicks. It feels a bit zippier to me.

New site seems fine to me but need to do something about the spammers. This RobertErync bot has posted like every day for the past two weeks. And the "newest registered user" displayed at the bottom of the screen is almost always a newly registered bot.
