Hit active topics in the upper right corner.... can find the topics that have been recently posted in... not as 'clean' as the ten recent ones... but works better for that... not as hard to lose topics when trolls, hyenas, and RIO freaks descend upon threads and clog the '10 recent'

It's called "Active Topics" and it's in the top right, up by the Search and all that. Hmm, I justed quoted Rico's text, but I cannot see it...

as far as I can tell, a member's reviews page is only accessible from the All Reviews area, but it should be included on the Member Profile as before
still terribly missing the lack of a Latest Post overview at the bottom

as sorry, I though you guys mean the latest 10 posts (especially since you bragged, again, about the VR) yes, the Active Topics is working, I just wish it to be present regardless of what page I'm at, as usual.

GAAAAAAHHH, UGLY! The colors are bland, the thread icons are too large and make the page big and clunky, it goes on and on.

I heavily agree, I liked being able to see someones reviews from their profile.

IMHO smaller box for signatures is better idea.
Signatures occupying almost half of a page are quite annoying.

agreed, but I'll take it if we can have Recent Posts back in one place at the bottom... the forums seem dead without it

I've noticed that too. It makes threads harder to find without it even though it means no VR/STC hogging up the frontpage.

but that never really bothered me, and I rarely post in the VR anymore
plus we don't have those handy little window that would appear and show the first part of someone's new post ...I implore the powers that be to restore the Recent Posts function as before

Oh yes, I forgot about that useful little hover feature that allowed us to read the beginning of a post within the Latest Posts section, that was rather useful.

Heeeyy.. we need space too, y'know  
Well, It might work for now. I still hope for a restoration of the "Latest Post" feature on the main forum page though..

 as leader of the hyena pack.. .we do need our space I guess... but again, things change... it's called survival of the fittest ... the strong.. the adaptable amoung us willl learn to sniff out old decayed rotting corpses of overdone threads and tear them to pieces without the latest post feature. After a couple of hours of navigating without it... it is not hard to not miss it.. at least for me. And it does keep the 'chat' threads from making the site less than it is... a resource for prog rock... rather than an upscale chat site. I had no problem with the VR and similar... only wanted M@X to make the 'latest posts' related to prog only.

In a member's profile there used to be a link to the site with all his reviews. It's now gone!
