  A few months back, we had a "poof" moment and suddenly this is the forum

  This is the best yet of all the versions since the old one went away. Just take a little time to familiarize yourself with it and it kinda grows on you. I was expecting the worst at first, but was surprised.

  As a "lurker" lots of long time knowledgable or interesting members hardly ever post anymore. Yup; must be an improvement.

  A lot of it is apparently change for the sake of change - like so many things are. Probably some to accommodate "devices" with inadequate screen sizes. With that said, once it got debugged, I have no problems with it other than the GLARING white - its going to cause me snow blindness!

  I am kind of new .... but am having fun & learning every day from the people on here about all sorts of topics . The political things are here because we get pounded all day every day so it is on most peoples minds . I have been to only one other forum & there were some great people there too but the stuffed shirts there & up tight ideas wasn't for me . I take great pride in not judging people for there thoughts & ideas they share . If we all thought alike it would be really boring & the airplane would have never been invented .
  Just an old guys thoughts & rant .

  I have a theory about Information Technology folk. They are like women in one respect. They insist on rearranging/changing the furniture on a regular basis and for no reason that a man can fathom. That's my theory/opinion and I'm stickin' to it!

  I don’t think he’s talking about the format. 
  
  If he’s actually talking about the content. 
  
  I have to agree. Less guns and hunting and more stupid crap. 
  
  Just one man’s opinion, though.

  Just an old guys opinion...the G&A forum is not fun anymore. I guess the Russians and President Trump are to blame for this too.
  
  Either that ...or a progressive liberal bean counter, hiding somewhere.

  This place is still fun if you embrace the silliness. Otherwise, you'll just be frustrated all the time.
  
  And yes, the Russians colluded with Donald Trump to upgrade this forum.... The Fire-Wall goes up next month!

  A perfect analogy. You nailed it! Just because you can change something doesn't necessarily mean you should.
