I’d rather have the old style with this (like in battlelog), it will only cause spam in the future when someone decides post for example 10 posts in a row

I know it’s already been mentioned, but please, give us a choice to change that black background. I honestly can’t browse the forum for more than a few minutes before my eyes get tired and my head starts to hurt.

If they do exceed that amount of posts in a row, it will be considered as spam. I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

The “Flag” or reporting a post functionality no longer works. It’s been this way for about a week now. If there are no plans to fix this, then perhaps removing the “Flag” wording under each post might be in order.

yeah, seems like they don’t care at all. This style gives my eyes cancer by just looking at it, not to mention that it’s scroll hell. Are you targeting the 80+ old player, or why is everything so big?

Why do you rush the transition from the BL forum, when this still looks like ?

Those things are better off in a right column, just like in most decent forums (and even the BL forum did that right). On top of that, a quote has the same color as this “poster info bar”, so I mix that things up and end up reading the posters name instead of a quote.

The BF4 forum was a perfect mix between looking good and not getting a headache. It literally makes my dizzy and that is coming from a dude playing with 120fov and a fast sensitivity. Clear it up. This is literally unusable.

Constructive feedback is great. Feel free to elaborate on “is tons of bad already” so we can continue to work and improve the forums for the community.

@TripleDotszz We have our Brand team working on some background imagery to add some pizzazz to the forums.

I’ve mentioned this on the RIP thread that the black background / white text combination is giving me eye strain - other people are getting this also. I want this forum to be a success but it seems as though it was rushed out without any thought or testing.

The black background is really destroying the experience for me as well. That would be by far the worst aspect of the current version. I used BBLog on the old Forums and I put a nice (relatively) bright picture for the background. That really lights everything up and simply changes the mood completely. Whenever I see screenshots from other people with dark backgrounds, I die a bit inside.  
Maybe the best way would be to let each user choose their preferred background picture or color scheme.

Picture I use with BBLog:

A lot of padding. Huge amount of empty space and only about 1/3 of screen width used. This is not this day, this is some ancient style. Aiming this forum to someone not able to see well by having big contrast, waste of space? This looks like someone just started to practise HTML5… Come on, you can do better than this!
