Yeah, the forum could be better and I miss the old one… Corel made a similar change to their forums, for similar reasons, and alienated entire sections of their community, costing them a fortune of lost goodwill as all their technical participants left.
Tiertime’s forum isn’t as bad as Corel’s forum, but there’s been a clear downturn in users. Arty people tend to like these kinds of forums, while those more inclined to sciences tend to loath the lack of clear order and taxonomy.
Regardless, the support on these forums as provided by TT people is actually pretty good -
And Tiertime don’t censor the forums either… Two very positive factors, so the discourse here is still very useful. As long as it works for Tiertime then, I’m happy to keep using it.
