I don't like the new forum:
- don't like the white color, scratch that.....saw the Dark Mode liao.
- Previously, when you post a reply, when you choose advanced, then the text box goes to the top of the page. Now everything at the bottom. Weird, have to get used to it.
- old subscribed threads are no longer bookmarked. Should have placed this information in the sticky thread and remind ppl to grab all bookmarks. Now have to redo, via post history. Sibei sian. :mad: Give warning in the sticky thread mah. Not everyone saw the PSA thread warning ppl to grab their subscribed threads/bookmarks. I didn't see it.
- I don't see any benefits as to the forum migration change. Can list them or not? eg security. What added functionality? Can list or not?

Using Brave browser and Firefox to test, along with uBlock Origin extension/add-on, testing on Incognito mode.

Brave:
- Incognito, uBlock On, Normal, uBlock On, Incognito, uBlock off, Normal, uBlock off
Doesn't matter which way I load the forums, loading speed is absolute crap. :mad: Brave blocks ads by default without even the need for an extension.

Firefox:
- Incognito, uBlock On, - Slow loading
- Normal, uBlock On, - Slow loading
- Incognito, uBlock off, - Slow loading
- Normal, uBlock off - Website loading fast.

Conclusion:
- I will have to use two browsers now whenever I surf.
- Brave Incognito Mode for normal viewing eg sports news, youtube etc.
- Firefox. My FF shortcut is set to Incognito default. So I have to click New Window. AND I also have to turn off uBlock Origin, just to achieve normal loading speeds. I set FF to auto clear history on closing browser, so no issue.
- If forum migration to a new platform was required, that's fine. If more ads were required for monetization, that's fine. But there should have been a working app when doing the forum migration.
Can't edit old post now - seems there is a time limit.

Ok, old subscribed threads found. Its under watched threads, not bookmarks. But now all jumbled up the threads. No more functionality to separate into categories, none that I see yet.

Actually, HWZ should have released a beta version running parallel to the original version.

Then let users use and feedback on the new HWZ forums. Once it reached a few betas and good to release then release it and remove the old version.

Whitespace, far too much on the left and right of the forum page. Even in the past, I ran it on 100% view cos it's abhorring to have to scroll so much just to read content.

The mobile version a lot of wasted space at bottom with a lot of irrelevant information.

Would be good if can remove those if detected to be surfing from mobile. :o
