It's incredibly annoying to me and well, the current forum activity speaks for itself unless something else is to blame for that..
sorry to hear that, we'll think of something..lets work together and figure something out..is it the links, the blocks, the chat also? the ones that like it, gave good answers as to why the links are good..but its strange, for me the forum is wide and big, so we need to try and work with something..i dont get it, do u have a small pc screen or are u using cell phopne? i'm curious why for some its good and for some its not..also i wonder if we can move them on top or maybe to the right side instead, so that the forum is first..mark, try removing the chatroom and the ad spaces to start.. the menus i can make smaller because those links are also in the categories. i'm sure we can work something out to please everybody, and that will remove some clutter. this is why me and mark especially mark worked hard in here but no one got involved though..
oh and the forum activity has been like this since we lost the website blog and came back in here, that was before these changes, so i don't think they are to blame for low activity, plus its summer now, people are out of school, out of college, on summer vacations, having fun in the sun, it usually gets slow in the forums for this time of year.. at least the site has gotten higher views and traffic then mark made changes and we were the only ones here trying to work with the templates..we put up a thread to discuss templates, yet no activity either, only ones that responded to that was erik, meth and thatonethere, that also said he liked this layout.

thats what i dont get, this happens all the time..we discuss something, work hard, then make changes in a long thread but the ones that never get involved in the discussion, complain later, after its already done and this can't happen anymore..this is not directed at u watcher, just in general, this happens all the time, thought i'd throw that in there..where was everybody's two sense in the proper thread discussion lol..ah well..thing is mark worked hard changing this template to red from blue and hard to add them blocks..we lost sleep fixing this up, when no one else helped or even tried, many gave up but we kept going because life goes on after a downfall like we all had.....i even changed the title to the thread lol, so that many knew this was it, we posted in the chat..decided on the template, i even sent out a mass message to everyone...its not really fair, if u ask me and i guess many of u would not understand but put yourself in our shoes.. we will go by the votes, i see uncharted, hip hop head, enzzie, myself and emseed, don't have a problem with the left side of the forum.. lets figure it out and lets see what others have to say as well...mark, please..if its not to hard, lets try the menu only, on the right side instead..and remove the rest.
