This site looks bloody marvelous, but the lack of proper forums will harm the BNet community.

The array of forums, subforums & groups we had before; all lined up in an easy to use, clear, coherent fashion were wonderful. It was easy to simply click on Community, The Flood, Halo 1 PC etc & it would all be there, in a standardized forum way. For me, at least, the way that the forums worked (i.e. as a catagorised thing, not like this tumblr/twitter thing we have now) was one of the key reasons that I kept flocking back to use BNet. As I say, it looks great, it looks futuristic & it looks clean. However, it doesn't feel anywhere near as usable as BNet previously was. Perhaps I'm just reluctant to change. I do love the tagging though, that aspect of this definitely works well. Anybody agree? If so, what's your major gripes & likes?

    I agree. Some things are good (clean interface for one), but some things are utter shit. Name changing is actually kinda stupid, now that I think of it. Sure, I enjoy being able to change my display name (Loktar OGar is stupid), but you can so easily change that it just is kinda stupid. Sure we have this "aliases" thing and the other unique ID, but it doesn't feel the same. Plus, new posts being at the top is stupid. At least do it like reddit, where the most liked posts are at the top (looking at it, apparently we can't even like individual comments, only "threads").
