Alright, I log in today, and notice the new incredibly snazzy new layout. Or it'd be incredibly snazzy if it were FUNCTIONAL. Roblox, you have dearly made a mistake with the design-over-functionality philosophy driving the new layout. Yes, we're aware it was inspired by(blatantly ripped off of) Windows 8 design principles, which stress form over function.
This is bad. This is horrible. This is backwards. Function is more important than form. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it'll still be a pig.
In this case a snazzy modern phone UI sized properly for desktops that still is a phone UI.
Bad design means that we have to completely relearn our navigation tricks, since the black bar of wonder was trashed, and seems to have been relegated to a dropdown menu (a butt-ugly dropdown menu, might I add), where it becomes confusing to search through.
Hereby I vote for a restore to the old UI's layout, with the black bar and everything across the top, with the new UI's styling and snazzy buttons.
Please post your support, and your views, on the new user interface below. |

| S&I became the most popular forum the other day, filled with people complaining about the layout. I don't think Roblox will change it back. Hopefully they make it optional though. |

I dont mind it. I do this thing called changing and adapting.
Learn that tings will always change. Deal with it, i learned to navigate it, it is pretty easy.

| I don't understand why Forum and Blog are on the side, shouldn't they be on top? The People tab should also return, it was useful, as the search bar doesn't save our search history. |

| Problem isn't with the snazzy look. I like the look. Problem is that touchscreen computers are not decidedly common, which MSFT doesn't realize, and RBLX used the MSFT Windows 8 style guide when developing the new site. AKA we have a mobile site for everything now. |
