The older sites were much better. No offense to ioi, but this entire site is a mess. It seems like they picked a bunch of features from other sites and just kinda tossed them all together. One example, look at the page long avatars, with about another half page of junk below them. The sigs are also another problem, i have them disabled(thank god) but they were getting ungodly large and annoying. The around the network in the middle of forum threads is also rather bothersome. The site is also rather difficult to navigate unless you spend all day searching for what you want.
I'm no web disigner but i think features the site has should be simple and to the point. If users are unable to find what they want within a few minutes you will lose them.

The 'page long avatars' problem has been noted by VGChartz staff, and they have said that they will be truncating that section for posts that are shoter than the section. Commenting on a problem that is currently being addressed in such a manner is designed to do nothing but cause offense. And before you say that you were unaware that this was the case, I would have to question why someone who has complaints and suggestions about the new layout didn't read the thread asking for complaints and suggestions about VGChartz.
I can't comment on sigs, because I have had them turned off since the day I signed up. I would expect that long sigs is the fault of the person who created the sig, as opposed to a site problem.
This site is quite simply much simpler to navigate than it was, and even before it wasn't particularly challenging. You are the first person that has complained about this afaik, so I would suggest that the problem is with you, and not with the website itself.
You needn't point out that you are not a web designer, we could probably have worked it out for ourselves... No offense ;)

The reason you don't see more posts is no doubt due to the 20 flash ads or speaking ads, annoying banners, large ads on the side which take you to different pages if you press on them even with the scroll wheel. The site runs very slow most of the day, the site runs even slower in IE to near crashing at times. Trying to scroll pages they travel ungodly slow at times. And many people have complained over the years about features and problems with the site and they are just ignored or made fools of in threads before they get banned by one of the mods on a power trip. Atleast the mod situation is better now then it was in the past.

1) I don't get any speaking ads, it depends on what country you live in
2) You use IE and complain about websites being slow? Lol! L2Chrome
