It's much, much more readable. I'm still getting javascript errors inolving the reply-forms (forms losing focus and spamming around the screen), but that's probably the fault of the forum software itself.

Don't allow leftists to play games with definitions! Some of the libertarian-leaning leftists at this forum will try to redefine "left-wing" back to its original defition (Third Estate, limited government, free-markets, laissez-faire reforms, etc.). Fine! We non-leftists can't stop them from using their own personal definitions; they can use whatever labels they want to describe any concept they want.

However, they have the audacity to then use their personal definition of "left-wing" (remember, the original definition, which is no longer valid) to prove that modern leftists are more libertarian than modern rightists! They will say that libertarianism is "inherently leftist" (again, using the original, no longer valid definition), and use that to insist that we should prefer and side with modern leftists over modern rightists.

Question their motives.

I agree strongly; I had my doubts at first but the current layout is shaping out to be an evolution from the previous layout, which while I found preferably in it's simplicity, the new layout is beginning to exceed the functionality of the previous one.  A few quirks here & there, I'm sure, but nothing that won't be ironed out eventually. 

I don't know how the urge to constantly make a new layout was resisted though; I'm still way to perfectionist to resist those myself whenever I make a site lol.

 I agree.  At first I was wondering "why fix it if it ain't broken", but it turned out very nice.  Great Job! Yes

Agreed. The community starter page is a bit crowded still, but will suffice.
Drag not your strength from government, but from the voices they abuse.
