The UI is pretty crappy (No offense admins).
Nevertheless, they are working on a totally new UI. the question is, when this new design is going to come. I've been waiting months xD
When I first saw this site, I was pissed off at how small the "home", "help", "search", etc buttons were... But I eventually got used to them.
They are working on new UI and forum software

From what I see, they've been working since March. That's a lot of time.
I think 2 persons would be able to make a decent forum in nodeJS in 2 months.
