I agree with that. It didn't appeal to me when I looked at it - but I am used to all the bells and whistles here. I like the way this site is set up to give us breaking news, latest threads, most rec'd threads etc. The other site is more streamlined and perhaps will draw in a younger crowd (not a bad thing). I hope people have fun with it.
