Mine right now is that the board is so slow that I get the smeary lines about half the time.
Sometimes it's not WHAT one says, but HOW it's said.

Which would get a better response from you?

Examples: Hon, I really like the blue dress on you better than this one

OR

Why the ^(&(*&( are you wearing that old rag that makes you look like dog poo?


Along with what saying what we don't like, make a suggestion for how it could be improved.

"I hate this thing" may be true - but the dislike needs to be narrowed down to something that can be fixed.

Example: The bright white background hurts my eyes. Would it be possible to get back a soft yellow like we just had?
(It looks like the color has been muted some)

There probably have already been many changes - Three that I'm aware of:

1) the background color seems less glaring
2) the larger default print size of the postings
3) the Quotes have been made smaller - so they are about the same size as the replies
