The forum front page is a mess, a massive amount of stuff and an achieve at the top that runs loads of lines.

Its not at all welcoming and I am sure many new users would look at it and be scared off.

Sort it out geeks!

OK I did not realise there was an issue with the forum, but there clearly is. The view I am getting is load and loads and loads of forums, the topper most being archive.

The biggest issue is that they chose Vanilla as the forum software, which is so problematic, feature-lacking and non-intuitive with its UI that it’s absolutely mind-blowing they’d go that route. And they’ve promised a fixed theme that wasn’t eyeball-scalding for ages now.

I would start by moving old discontinued items to the bottom.
