What happened???

Is it just me or did the layout of fte change,I am on the mobile version and it's so different and I must say not easier to use or navigate can some one tell me if this is just a glitch or a newly designed layout or will the original return. I hope that the original version will return!!!

On my iPhone/iPad I have the options of choosing the mobile version the first time I load the site every day. I always choose no because the full version is only a bit slower and I don't like the mobile format. Close your browsers and clear out all your cookies/caches/history, whatever all that mess is and it should give you a mobile/non mobile option the next time you come to the site. I can't help with Android devices, I've been forced into Apple for work stuff.

I have cleared cookies and history and still no luck it seems as if the format is for a different type of phone ( android maybe???) i just am taking a shot in the dark I just don't know why this all of a sudden started to happen.

Format has changed for me also. Like the old version better if anybody's keeping track of votes.

Oh thank god I am not the only one, I thought it was just me or a glitch but I REALLY don't like this format, it horrible tough to read hard to navigate and no where near as user friendly as the old one. Can some one tell me this is just a trial run and not something we have to live with. I guess it's like our 6.0 maybe not new and fresh but sure works dam good. Please bring back the old version PLEASE!!!!!!

There are a couple posts in GNAC about the new mobile format. This is a custom theme, and likely to be this way for a while.

Too cluttered for my liking.
