I do. But I don't think any of them run Version 4.2.3 of vBulletin, the latest one I'm sure I'm using is 4.1.12.
Hence my question.
Its better than what this is anyway and certainly better than was we had before

The change has not improved it. It was perfectly all right the way it was.
Forum was certainly not perfect the way it was and this is still not good compared to most web forums. How was previous forum look "perfectly all right the way it was"?

It would be an upgrade if they would actually add a new feature like

- notifications on mentions ONLY (so as you can quickly reply)

Because I had no problem finding my way around it and had no trouble finding exactly what I wanted. Change for the same of change is not usually good. Back when I started out the main criteria for a website was (a) that it should load fast and (b) that it should be easily to navigate and (c) that the text should be readable (no yellow fonts against a white background etc). The new site passes all those tests, but so did the previous version. Why the need to change?

It could be worse. They could have allowed lads add their own picture to their profiles. How scary would that be !!

The old version was outdated and needed to change. This change has made it easier to get around the forum especially if moving from a county forum to the main GAA or other sports forums.
The site does load fast, is easy to navigate and text is readable so why is there an issue. If anything the changes didn't go far enough

The old way wasn't much better it was much worse and more changes are needed
