I miss that also. I wonder of this was intentionally done because of all of the controversy over self diagnosis. A work around is to put your diagnosis in your signature.I do like to find out about users before I reply to them.

I agree with this. Columns would break up the whiteness and give some structure so things are more readable.

Things are too spaced/stretched out now with too much white space in between.

I just noticed that my age was shown in my profile when I previously set it to be hidden. I only ever entered a birthday to access Adult forum. So it seems like the only way to do that now is to set the year of birth to some dummy (false) value.

I too was wondering if that was the reason.
I also like to know, even when just reading their posts, even more so before replying.

Apparently guests are allowed to post in the Autism Politics, Activism, And Media Representation section which is causing spam issues. Needs to be locked down to registered users like in the past.

Oh boy. Why would we want non-members to be able to post in any forum?

Edit: Anyway, I've reported a particular offending post.

How interesting...
I always seem to notice the little things, like why are some usernames bolded and others aren't on the main forums page?
The only thing that comes up as a slight negative for me is the need for more scrolling on forum pages. The old WP had the thread titles more condensed vertically, so you could see more at once.

Guests can post in the autism politics section and the forum keeps logging us out.

Thanks for the hard work on the site upgrade, guys.

One thing I've noticed is that there are posts missing on some threads. It's particularly noticeable on larger ones like the "Last person to post wins" thread on the Games forum. It had over 5,400 pages before the upgrade, but now it's down to around 4,300 pages. That's around 10,000 posts missing from a single thread. Any reason why?

It might be nonsense but it could be something. I wonder whether posts containing just a smiley (or a series of smilies) were deleted. I can't seem to load the "What emoticon are you right now" thread from a search. Most posts in that thread likely consisted of just that, and whether it was a coincidence or not, I got an error the first time I tried to send such a message just now.

yep glad it wasn't just me.

also wheres the gender option in profile?
helps to know who is what gender when asking gender specific things.

I'm puzzled about something in the profiles; some usernames are depicted in red, others in dark blue. What does it signify?

The frontpage has "Register" and "Log in" buttons, however if I click through to the forums I am logged in.
