These new prefix tags are driving me crazy. They look like they are part of the thread topic instead of a prefix. The "Need Help" one is especially bad. Yeah, we know you need help otherwise you wouldn't be asking a question....DUH! Stop using the damn thing.

I purpose either a change in the way they appear, get rid of the prefix tags all together or best of all, go back to the previous format. You know, the one who's layout made sense and was easy to read.

    I agree that the prefixing system is awful on this new forum. They really need to stand out more from the title of the thread; they are useless in their current incarnation.

    Its even worse for hyperlinked text. It doesnt look any different than regular text. I wish it would be blue, or red, or something to help it stand out.

    It is much harder to read than it used to be. Seems like posts have gone way down as well.

    New format brings with it a multitude of new options. These vbulletin layouts are quite complex and the expandability is mind boggling.

    Patience folks... they'll make it look just the way they want it with time.
