Prefer the old site so far. Seems to be loading slowly and in my opinion not quite as easy to navigate (so far).

Also had to log in twice. Once on the main screen and it came up with an error saying "unknown user" yet logged me in as xenole. Second time when I went to make a post but that was fine.

First time I saw the forums bit I got confused by the fact there are only 3 sections rather than the previous 20ish?!

Cutting down the number of forums (and using sub forums to tuck away grouped content) is deliberate to ensure new users aren't confused as to where to post. On the old site we had dozens of forums, and a lot of crossover.

It was getting to the stage were you had to wonder whether a post about earning miles should be in General, Flying Club, Ask A Guru or one of the other forums. It's much more straightforward here, and the new quick links to 'new posts', 'unanswered posts', 'your posts', etc, should make it quicker to navigate.

Hoping that login thing will settle down one the DNS issues have flushed through. You might need to clear out any old site cookies so anything left over from the old site isn't screwing up the new one.

Change is always a challenge - but doing it allows us to grow, add new features and integrate with other sites you're already using.
