New forum look.

Change is great and all, but just a few problems I am having so I can help you guys out with some of the bugs.

1) Load times are terrible. It loads one thread at a time like it is building a list. It feels like I'm on 56k. I did a speed test, and I'm getting well over 6mbit speeds to california, and all other forums or websites load fine.

2) I keep getting database and PHP errors when I navigate through the forum.

3) I can't upload any attachments because it says I'm using my maximum limit. I already deleted all the attachments it allows me to.

Ditto here. My office's T1 is no longer cutting it, and I'm getting error messages as well. I can't even modify my signature without the bandwidth drying up.

I'm sorry guys, but let's look at the way MSN.com does things: multiple links all on one page, headlines and topics all available in separate windows, all at the same time . . . basically, the most efficient use of space and information. Surely, they know what they're doing.

And now the Evom Homepage format is extremely limited. Why? Where's all the product reviews? The vendor sale links? The new post listing? Was all that information on one page really so bad?

I'm sorry guys, but if it's not pretty much recapped on the first page, most of us won't take the time to dig for interesting topics unless we have a repair riding on it.

It occurs to me: Perhaps we're only seeing a partial display --- if that's so, please let us know when the format is complete. But if this is it, then please . . .

Reconsider.

Respectfully --- Tsurugi-san

Same here am getting alot of php error message. The only way to get rid of that message is to hit refresh like 10x just to get in EVOM.

Thanks for the feedback. The site will probably be buggy for a little bit becuase of the different upgrades it's going through. All the issues are being worked on. Also keep in mind this isn't the final "look" of the site.

Thanks for the Feedback guys. Ali aka SPT has been working VERY hard on the changes.

Just remember changes are not always bad and for the better. We have to keep up with the necessary changes for patches and bugs in VB Bulletin that are needed to suppport all the platforms out their.

So bare with us as this site will turn out nice in the END........

Thankfully you guys finally updated to VB 3.64...LONG overdue.

Depends on time of day, the site is slow and other times it is just fine.
