You think? The old forum was huge, but I don't think this one is freakishly small...

My eyes probably needs adjustment, its that when the letters were bigger - you can read what is being said simply by glancing at the screen with those larger letters.

But now, it seems you need to focus yourself in front of the screen and fix your eyes on the words to make out what they mean.

Thats my opinion anyway

Should I bump it by 1pt?

Couldn't hurt, it does seem a tad small.

FYI>
if you click the chat nav link while viewing the Forum you forgot a /
it calling for www.pirateparty.cachat.
it should be of course www.pirateparty.ca/chat

Also, you may want to see how clicking on the merchandise opens, you loose your base back to the main site.
Also from the get involved tab, Local Meetings it leads to an error",The requested URL /forum/list.php was not found on this server."
Perhaps a trial click thru  to test all links is in order
Just thoughts.
Site looks good though, appreciate the hard work that goes into setting it up.
cheers
As the site gets larger and much less manageable you may want to try "web link validator" or " Linkscan" I have had great luck with both of those, one of which has a trial version.

Yeah it would be worth a try, at least it would be easier on the eyes.

I've been here for exactly a year and I'm already use to the previous font.

[cpt_chris]

much better, the old forum was a great mess.

[Tyler Jacquard]

Besides having to Re-register. I think it's a beautiful change. Good job Guys!

How do we get back some of the old postings? There was a lot of material there.

If you search Google you can still find the Google Cached version. You should save anything you want to keep, because I don't know how long it will remain.

Perhaps it will show up on archive.org in a few months, but there doesn't seem to be anything there now.

This forum doesn't seem to feature the extensive support for rss feeds that the old one had.

Agreed. Please add RSS support.  I just can't keep up on the forums without it.   

[doconnor]

The agreement you have to make to register should be revised. It says you have to follow the law of the United States rather the Canada and doesn't take into account fair dealing when saying posting copyrighted material is prohibited.

Excellent point. None of us are lawyers, but would you like to draft a new one?

I took at look at it. I don't think we need an agreement at all. First, because most people don't read it, it any agreement may not legally valid. Second there is no rights the members have to give up to join the forum, so there is no need for them to agree to give them up. The party has the right to remove objectionable postings and ban users even without a user agreement.

I'll look into it. Can't promise a speedy fix, though, as I've got a lot on my plate. What did it have, RSS feeds for each board and thread?

RSS feeds has to be enabled in the News and Newsletters Settings. There is more information on configuring them here.

Exactly... So our agreement could be as simple as

'Dont be a douchebag, dont troll, dont harass and be respectful and courteous to your fellow forum members'

Besides one of the things some of us would like to do is remove the excessive amount of legalese in EULA and other types of agreements.

[Mikkel Paulson]

We could just change the "agreement" to this:

Don't be a dick.
