8. I'd just rather not see lots of icons that I almost never use all over the page.

In fact, I didn't like it enough that I went ahead and hid all of that new stuff with Stylish. Now (for me) it looks how it did before but instead of a single click to reveal their post count and icons for journal, mail, ignore; now I have to open someone's profile page. Since I rarely use any of those functions, opening a page to access them is no big deal.

The whole click the username to reveal that stuff was one of the things I liked about DU3 over DU2, and now they are changing it back. I'd rather see them fix the issue with sorting the forums/groups by something other than Last reply for multiple pages than change something that seems to work perfectly fine as it is. (I wonder why they never consulted me about what to work on next? )

I'm not a fan. I find it distracting, but that may just be because it's new - hard to say. (nt) harmonicon Jun 2012 #9
Don't you remember this is how it was before DU3 was born? I used to like it like this, gateley Jun 2012 #18
so many little things like that changed, but didn't it just say something like "1000+"? harmonicon Jun 2012 #20
Oh, you're right! The 1000+. One thing I REALLY love about the New! Improved! DU is gateley Jun 2012 #23
