Agreed, especially on the not being logged off part.  Not that I post that much anyway, but prior to the switch I usually didn't even bother logging in (I am that lazy)... Anyways, big kudos to @"Mike Olson" as well!

I too enjoy the newer site.  Very easy to maneuver around on.  Strangely, I really enjoy the badges you can earn by just participating.  Kudos to Mike Olson a great job!

Much better place than the one we had before. Log times were awful and I would just log off for no reason. It was a mess.
Good job, Mike!!

That is a cool feature. 
Overall, this software is much closer to what we had previously.  User friendly, loads fast, easy to navigate and track conversations, etc.  Major improvement.
BOOM

No doubt that this new software has a overall much better feel and function. The previous one was quite brutal. Would hardly ever visit before, but now several times a day.

Thanks Mike!

I think Mike would go insane if he had free time to not work on the upgrades.  Hahaha

New board is not good. To complex /stringent. Lacks simplicity. Hard to maneuver. Enjoy  the comments from the experts but maneuvering is stifling.

It would be most helpful to Mike if you could flesh out your comment.  What aspects are too complex/stringent?  Seems very fast and easy to me and I'm an old luddite Baby Boomer that hates change....   :)  Please no offense, you point of view is valued here!
