I feel a little less adoration =P Ava Send a noteboard - 10/05/2011 12:11:37 AM
Honestly, it sounds to me like you don't like it just because it's different and might be off putting to people.

I don't like this style because I find it un-tidy, and find the layout a hindrance to proper appreciation of the posts. I was an old-school wotmania member, as I've mentioned, so the board style is nothing different. I'm well used to it, in the sense that I've been using it for many years. I just don't particularly like it, in a similar way that I've been driving a Buick for many years, and even though I'm used to it I don't really like it.
