Question

Hi,
why these days Microsoft is changing the UI of MSDN forum. This is a very bad UI experience that should be looked into. Earlier around 1 year ago UI was perfect, but now these days unnecessery changes has made the UI very bad and it will loose its potential users in future.
Can any person from Microsoft please pass this information to MSDN Forum development team at Microsoft?
One good question is equivalent to ten best answers.

Hi,
The forums went through a pretty massive redesign in June of last year. The new design definitely takes some getting used to. There's a FAQ available here (it hasn't been updated in a while though, there have been some improvements made since the initial redesign) that should hopefully help you with some of the biggest changes:
Also, make sure you look through the Suggestions forum and vote up any threads that contain suggestions for changes that you'd like to see. If you don't find an existing thread, post a new one.

NNTP Bridge is preferred, especially for those "Forum Contributors".
