    It's a PITA. Before you just clicked bookmarks, now you click that and then you have to click all bookmarks to see them. This site gets less user friendly by the day

    It's awful. Sometimes the bookmarks load up no problem, other times it's as if I didn't click on it at all.

    It's awful. I presume they paid a professional company...

    There's also a star in the top right hand corner of the browser that worked perfectly fine until recently.

    This is the only forum I use where basic features don't work properly.

    Seems to rectified itself although pop ads are annoying.

    The funny thing is, it's not even Vanilla that's the problem. Other large sites such as Digital Spy are using Vanilla without issue. It seems to be whatever way Boards tried to configure it. If I were to make a guess as to why, I'd say that the poor reaction to the previous responsive site resulted in them trying to emulate the look of vBulletin (i.e. make Vanilla do something it wasn't intended to do) and it backfired.

    Exactly.

    Other sites that I've joined that started with stock forums configuration all work perfectly.
