Well, I've been here since at least 3, and I think 3, 4, and 5 all have their attractions. Generally, I think the older versions handled many features better, but the newer ones have more features, and there are, to be sure, some features that improve.
But one thing I will never, ever forget is that post history has gotten MASSIVELY worse in 4 vs. 3, and IMO in 5 vs. 4 as well. The way it works now, you can hardly even see any text unless you open the link in a new tab/window, especially if you quoted someone; and I don't think it can show pictures whatsoever. The 3.0 version had a scrolling box you could view the whole post with. It was like ten thousand percent easier to search through someone's post history.
Maybe there's some reason it got changed and can't change back, or maybe it's simply that few people care about the post history and there are a lot of things to fix and they always come up with a new version of the site whenever they get close to fixing all the problems from the last update But I care about this feature. And I remember.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
