The new advrider - Improved or not?

[LMT]

Adventure Rider got a remake.  Are you a fan? I have not poked around much. Seems like a good thing for the admins and owner, but maybe not as good for the end user.

I think this is moto content...

I don't want it sullying NMC...

off it goes.

Looks different, but it's been quite a while since I poked around over there.

No problem. As I was posting I thought the same thing!

It took me a bit to figure out how to do a couple things like figure out what were actually new posts vs. existing after marking a forum read. 

The one thing I've not figured out is how to search a forum...

Yeah, I'm not a fan but then again I'm never really a fan of digital change.  Once I get poking around I'm sure I'll like it.

I agree with bushywar15 that the search function is a little confusing.  My way of searching the site as a whole has always been to use a Google "site search", so that hasn't changed.  But I do miss being able to use ADVrider's search within a thread function, which seems to be missing now.

Confusing as heck for me, but i'll get used to it. Seems really different than any other forum i've been on.

Guess I need to go check it out.. Been a while since I've poked the ADV

Visually it's kind of more entertaining than before but like any kind of change, it'll take time to get used to.

I've been an advrider member longer than I've been a DMF member and the advrider board really makes me appreciate our moderators here.

The place seems logically laid out. I was only on there once before. Don't own an adventure bike although I would like to. I'm getting the impression that the site is read only now? I'm not seeing how that makes any sense.

Same as here, if you're a member you can post.

Yea but I was reading the comments and it seemed to indicate that with the change it would become read only. I had no expectation that I could post.

The read-only thing was only when they were swapping servers or formats or whatever it was that they changed, which occurred a few weeks ago.  It is no longer read only.
