No its not. It's a typical forum if you've never been to one before. There are some issues in the member center/ favorites/ my profile that I think should be grouped together better. However the overall functionality of the forum is A.O.K.

At the very least it isn't POORLY laid out (lol). It's really not bad at all.

is it possible his avatar complaint about faces and such is all the new "remember remember the 5th of november" avatars?

the ones with the french looking guy fawkes mask on it??/

last but not least, the animated avatars the moderators have enrage me. not only are they all pulling faces that a 5 year old would find imature but they look over 100 years old!!!

I'm confused, what the hell does that mean?

No really, can someone interpret?

Peace

Well, I may be the one that has the age prize. My avatar is about 14,000 years old.:

To the OP, don't just gripe, send a suggestion for improvement. In case you haven't found that clickable link, all I can say is good luck!

I have to disagree as a new member i found it to be layed out just fine

maybe your getting the layout confused with its size i know thats what confused me, you dont know where to look first and then, just when you think your there you find BTS and i havent even been to AP yet...but politics can be boreing not half as exciteing as UFOS,Aliens,Reptiles,BigFoots,Skull 'n' Bones,illuinatti,freemasons,knights of old,,secret bases,NWO,CIA.FBI.FEMMA,HARRP,MI5,MI6,MFI,Rothchilds,Rosechilds,Rockerfellas,Goodfellas,Badfellas,Red flags,Green flags,Go flags,Stop flags,



STOP im getting dizzy ............maybe polictics aint such a bad idea after all .hmm

If you'll write me a check for a few million, I'll find a way...

I guess some people prefer the standard Invision layout, XMB, etc that you find on 1 million plus other website.

The issue, however is, we are not them. ATS is not run-of-the-mill anything. Not the members, not the staff, certainly not the layout.

If one is looking for "more of the same" I can safely say ATS is not the proper destination for that person.

The layout isn't so bad, considering what it's trying to do. It's relatively easy to access the forums that interest you without having to deal with all of them at once. The abundant special features are also relatively easy to access. And it's simple enough to simply make bookmarks to get into the site where you want without having to go through the main page. I don't see a problem.

I like the layout. I don't really like the ATS logo with the red ATS letters. I like the black one.

And also, I don't really understand the point of AbovePolitics. I don't get why those topics couldn't be incorporated into ATS.

But aside from that - it's the best message board I've ever been on.
