First, I want to say that I love the information on this site/forum, and think there's a great community of people on here. I know haven't posted much, but Ihave been a long-time reader of this forum.
MJ - Have you given any thought to changing the layout of this site a bit? This forum is honestly quite a mess.
A few thoughts:
-There are numerous navigation menus on the top of the page, with way too many tabs.
-There are way too many pinned threads. It makes it inconvenient to have to constantly scroll far down to get to actual new threads.
-The whole 'Community Activity' section of the home page really isn't needed, IMO.
-Too many ads and widgets. I completely undersand monetizing this site through ads, but I often feel like I have to dig around them to get to actual threads. The amounts of adds, widgets pinned threads etc makes this site take forever to load on my iPad (and I assume other mobile devices). Also, it seems like a good majority of the ads on here have absolutely nothing to do with the type of content discussed on here.
-There are bugs in the software (ie reply to posts doesn't always work).
-The Google Custom Search box doesn't seem to even work at all - searching just refreshes the home page. Seems to just be taking up space.
-Is the large yellow box promoting the book really needed (or can it at least be smaller?)?
All of this being said, MJ, I want to sincerely thank you for everything you do on/for this site and forum, and hope you understand that I intend this post to be constructive, and I can only assume that there are other members of this forum with a similar opinion.
This place is a great source of information and a valuable community of people looking to help each other. I know I'd personally come on here much more if this site was much more 'clean' and simple. I honestly almost dread coming here sometimes due to all the clutter.
