Hello,
I came here not long ago and this is a great place full and extremely much information, but unfortunately it is quite poorly arranged.
There are a few things I want to share and also ask.
I had difficulty finding the rules of the forum, it turned out that they are not official.
The help menu is pointless, most of the features aren't even mentioned there at all, like Rules, Merit, Trust, feedback etc. You have to look for pinned posts here and there.
I encounter misunderstandings.
If I have a question, I find a topic that does not fully answer my question and I decide to publish my point.
I get a message that the topic is older than xx days and it is better to open a new topic. I open a new topic, people say that there are older topics on which I had to post my question. In the meantime, I have to wait a few minutes between searches.
People do not read the previous comments. Several people answer the same thing simply by using different words and expressions.
I don't mind the old look of the forum, I even like it, but the text formatting tools are awful.
Don't take this as criticism, rather as wondering how things can be so confusing, this is a 10 year old forum.

Mostly I can agree with you.
It takes time to understand and comprehend everything on this forum but I see that you are on the right track
When it comes to old and new topics, its almost impossible to keep track of it all (there are so many different topics) and sometimes its easiest to open a new topic, at least thats my experience.
There are always people who complain about something and think that something could have been done better.
Don't worry about it and if you have really good suggestions and ideas on how to improve this forum I suggest you contact the admin directly.
Welcome to the forum!
