This is a horrible layout. I can't tell which club all these boxes are for. The club name is really small, and only the big titles stand out. So I can't really focus on the specific clubs that I know about. The CLUB NAME should be clearly and prominently displayed as before. Also the club icon should also be displayed, otherwise it's all just text bunched up together, makes it very hard to read. How can you not understand that?
It's pretty hard to follow on laptop but not bad on phone. Can we get the feed back? See when the last comment was rather than when the whole post was started? Have a clean layout rather than a bunch of columns that we can't tell is supposed to be in order?
I understand that this site is your toy but engagement always drops when the site gets molested.
The layout is clean and responsive. The site is fast. I like the minimal use of color and lack of crazy design elements. I like the location breadcrumbs on the reviews.
The club/location is a bit hard to read, and I find it at least as useful in selecting reviews to click as the title. It would be helpful to make the club/location more obvious in the review tiles.
The Reviews page items don't have a comment count like the Discussion items. I find that useful and would like to see the comment count on reviews as well.
I'm not a fan of the hiding/revealing top nav bar. If I nudge my touch pad when on a page, it drops down often over text I'm trying to read. I suppose it's useful to maximize vertical space for content vs header, but it might be good to limit that to mobile devices. On my laptop it's unnecessary distracting movement, and it interferes with reading.
The font is quite small, but that's easily adjusted in the browser.
Founder, thank you for everything you do. But can you please change the format back the most recent format? We can’t even read the past reviews of clubs.
I'm not a giant fan of the tiled layout, it reminds me of Windows Phone. But, the change brought with it the return of white space so that makes it overall a positive. I look forward to the return of the feed.
@devil_dawg, you can still get to TJ Mongers but it's awkward. Click on "Discussions" on the top nav. Then there's a breadcrumb that reads "Forums > All Discussions". Click on "Forums" and you can see the 3 forums and pick TJ Mongers.
@founder, I am definitely lamenting the lack of a feed. Are alerts coming back too? It was great when I could ping someone by there user name.
I think the other thing you need is some sort functionality. I should be able to look at reviews or articles by recent comment - this is a way to drive engagement on interesting content.
not a big issue by any means, but I noticed if I go to my dashboard and then bookmarks I don't get expected results, I see what looks like some json.
Not sure if it's WIP or overlooked. Only reason I was even poking around there was in search of an interim "feed" kinda solution to quickly scan reviews of my local clubs, so if that comes back I'll probably never click there again.
You might be the only one who liked rejected reviews 😂
For me 90% of the time the rejects were 3 sentences or less. Complete waste of space. Cluttered up everything. This new layout is definitely a lot cleaner.
I agree with you when it's 3 sentences or less. and it probably doesn't have any good info. but if it's longer and has a nugget of information that's useful I like to see it.
Mr founder. I'm unable to leave a comment when I approve or disapprove a review... probably also true of approving or disapproving a article,
there's one review that I thought was pretty good to begin with but it's like he needs to go much further with info and such but I was unable to 'reject' it with a reason posted.
I’ve been here for 15 years and appreciate the efforts to improve. The drag is that on every site refresh it then takes a while to bring back some of the best features you’ve shown us over the years. The “skip to last comment” link is great for long threads. Showing who made the last comment and when, without having to open a thread is great since you don’t have an individualized “last read” link like vbulletin and some of the industrial forum software. Right now, there’s not an easy way to get to the Front Room forum and bypass the others.
I understand that google maps are no longer free and so that function, as great as it was, is gone for now. The current style of listing nearby clubs in the sidebar is helpful, but can be improved. If I were travelling to Houston, I would like to be able to select only the clubs in Houston and sort them by rating, by recent review, and all the ways we used to able to. Unless I missed something, it looks like clubs can only be arranged from a state level. Most states are too large for that high level sorting to be useful and most travellers cannot be expected to know what county or neighborhood a club is located in (e.g. a Fort Myers club listed in Pine Manor for some reason - there is no city named Pine Manor). We should be able to sort by city, then drill down by rating, price, features, last reviewed date, and club distance from each other.
👽_ ' ' ' ' ' ' - Havin' the search bar ' in more than 1 area is critical but
right now, I only see it in the listings icon topic section after clicking it at da' top of the main screen, but people shouldn't have to go out of their way to search for a search bar for $Strip Clubs!
It should be conveniently useable from the main page without having to go searching of links within for dat' search bar.
I had to go fishing for the search bar and finally found it under the listings section, but that is an inconvenience.

Or put on da' really small condensed compressed baby rectangle screenshots which is more grouped together of an eagle eyes view but only about 5 screenshots.
I wanted for pick & narrow the colors but I like them all, so I'm not able to narrow down.
I guess I can't be over on color for a main site viewing idea & those colors can be applied to anything on tuscl for future updates.
I would recommend changing the font style of the text on comments, discussions or reviews for Lil' more professional look & something new, maybe add color text like maroon, burgundy or dark red.
