Be able to collapse the sticky thread area.

This is especially important on mobile ! The sticky threads take up the entire page. The collapsible setting should also be remembered. I can open it up if I want to access those threads.

Important notices should be done via Xenforo's Notices anyway. So no excuse there.

Avatars (images) should match the Thread Prefixes.

GDT should have a GDT logo (not the avatar of the thread starter).
Player threads should have their MugShots.
Blue Jay threads ... Blue Jay logo.

Forum Categories that I collapse .... Should remain collapsed, until I click it again.

Currently they are forgotten if I refresh a page !

Agreed, but I'm sure that's coming soon. Just a bug. What I want is on mobile to only have to click one link from the home page to the leafs Subforum instead of clicking Atlantic and then leafs.

Exactly.
Clicking Atlantic first is tiresome.

I think it's just the matter to time and getting used to it - I believe opinion is going to change once we all get used to it

Like many have said there is a balance to be struck with ads, sadly they have become prevalent and unbearably out of hand.

Change can suck and take time, but I like this. I used to me a member of mapleleafshotstove.com for 5 years, and when they changed everything I never visited again. But this I like! And you shouldn't let change scare you to improve else you will be in the dark ages. Anyways... is there a "like" button? That would be cool

What is up with the massive lag on this site? I know it's just here because I don't experience typing issues, or load issues on other forums and it happened just as this this insane C-7....... long gibberynonense appeared in my load screen when i refresh. Is this the same thing (i'm assuming ads and other underlying stuff the other place had with T-tublera....gibbering nonsense chain they had).

Is there a way to clean it up? I don't think it should take forever for me to load a page and then respond.

Yeah the lag has been absolutely brutal the last few days. It is an absolute pain to follow a GDT with that much lag. Hopefully that isn't just the way the site runs now.

YEah it's been really slow for me too

Same for me. Really laggy and sluggish.

Interesting thing is that for me, this started on Wednesday. It was completely fine before that.

These adds keep popping up.. Making the site really laggy for me to do anything.

Bingo. Try a network tracer and reload the site --common to see lag time of up to 14 sec. just to load an ad, how many we see per page load again?

Unless I am missing something, where is that graphic which shows whether you've posted in the thread or not? I liked that as well.

Where can I see the post number? If there is a mod warning on post XXX, how can I find it? I'm not going through the whole thread lol.

Is this ad on purpose ?
I know how to make google ads responsive if the HF admins desire.

The "Latest: 10 minutes ago" provides no info and just wastes space.
