I used to always read the forums on my iPhone/iPod, now with the new update i cant see a thing. A blue flim covers where the paragraph should be & no words show up, just blank blue film. Plus the loading circle gets shoved to the side & is much more clumsy feeling than the old one.
Also no spellcheck is really annoying too.
Please WG change back your old forum interface if you can, for the sake of gramatical errors & for all the iOS users that cant read a thing on here.

An incomplete list of the things I don't like:
-Notes have been removed
-You cannot view the OP on every page
-Only one avatar
-Mobile version is screwed up beyond use
-Some signatures are very hard to read now (Like SeanPwnery's)
-Other signatures are oversized now
-The list buttons aren't working for me anymore
-Your profile comments and your feed have been merged
-You cannot configure how the forum is viewed like you used to be able to
-You can report your own post (Derp)

I would like you to put the buttons back where they were, especially the "View New Content". Moving it does not make it better....

Another vote for turning down the lights (brightness). I feel like I need to wear sunglasses when I open it.

The white needs to go, or at least be toned down a bit...

This new forum look feels so...blank room like. I feel walled in somehow. I didn't think there was anything wrong with the old forum look. In fact, I enjoyed it more than other websites'.

Many features, like EDIT for instance, don't work in Google Chrome, only IE. Or when viewing my profile etc., the tabs on the left don't work. Many things.
My favorite font Century Gothic is gone!
I don't know what some of the new icons mean and there is no description when hovering mouse over them. Now I tried one and the screen just went grey and I had to reload the page and type it all over again (in Chrome).
Even in IE, it doesn't allow me to change signature, saying only 5 lines are allowed (I have three!). (EDIT: After some experimantation I see that some formatting (or too much of it) (I like formatting) causes this error.)
Dislike.

Everything is pretty good but the layout for Profiles now is atrocious.  I have no idea who is saying what to which friend, and it takes like 1-2 extra steps to view what already took a while.  It's really off setting.

I've found it somewhat harder to navigate and read, as well as it being hopeless to browse on a mobile device.

You guys need to fix the mobile browser.  I used to be able to use the mobile skin on my phone for both this forum and WoWP, but since going to this new system I can't read anything!

The only thing I don't like is the loss of the "News" and "Home" links at the top of the forums. The forum is set as my homepage, and I don't like having to open a new tab and type to get to the main WoT page. :(

First off this is really annoying and I don't know why you did this.  And I fully agree with pretty much everyone else has said.  It's too plain, to bright, and a step backwards.

can not read forums on moble phone anymore, it puts a blue background with blue text. The profile pict takes up 1/4 the screen on moble phone screen too.
