Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!
Hey all, you may notice a few changes to the styling and structure of the forums in upcoming days. It's a little hard to use in its current state and some of you may have noticed how it feels a little more blogg-y than forum-y. If you've got any feedback, good or bad, let us know!

I kinda liked the old one we had when applying in 05... It was just an out-of-box thingamajigger, wasn't it? but it was very easy to use on the commenter end.
You're not the only one!

The reason for the differences today is that the entire CW site was changed to run on a diffrent content management system than it was then - Drupal makes it very easy for many of the volunteers to contribute to the website (a task which was harder with the older version of the site). But the out-of-the-box forum stuff for Drupal has some of these quirks like the automatic subject lines for comments, the look&feel, etc.
Chris Sumption (the CW webmaster) is awesome and investigating some of the things we can do to still improve these forums. Hopefully we can continue to bring y'all a few more helpful changes without having to overhaul the entire site.
