yes, some extra skins for the for the forum wouldn't hurt, but I bet that's pretty low priority as of right now

I preferred the forums we just abandoned. i'd just gotten to figure them out, and didn't see a need for change. They seemed 'lighter' more open, and easier to navigate and clearer than vBulletin seems so far.

These ones seem far too crowded, cluttered and dark so far. Perhaps that can be altered with new skins; we'll just have to wait and see I guess. I'm just not used to vBulletin and i'm sure i'll catch on eventually(I hope?!); but so far it's one thing I'm not so keen on.

Everything else looks great so far, and I can't wait for a proper round to kick off! Great stuff Azzer, really well done.

I agree whit alci!, i just gotten used to the previous forums after it been updated again during the age 4.5 (??) update... took a while.

It should just be plain simple and not to big, its all to detailed, to much differtent colors and stuff!

I don't understand anyone who says they'd "only just gotten used to the old forums". It's a forum, what's difficult about it? You click on topics, you read, you reply if needed. Not exactly brain surgery.

It's rare enough to get two forums *exactly* alike. And most have different button placements, or button pics; so it's just another thing to get used to for no, obvious, reason. Like I said, I'll get used to it in time; I just didn't understand the need for change; other than 'the sake of change'.

The alliance permissions structure and notes idea is utterly great. I'm loving age 5 so far.

lol, i agree with Lupus, it was amusing to watch the spam in the gpols :p

An i agree with what Alci said too, i thought the old forums were fine, and these ones look pretty darn crap. Ofc, ill get used to it, and it will be fine, but we need some better skins! xD

Maybe a PHPBB skin!
