New CC format horrible!

[Pellaz]

Here's how the Forum now displays on my computer at work, running MS Internet Explorer 11.   

This isn't a "learning curve" issue, it's a "how could they have ruined it so completely?"

It's completely unusable. 

 

Even while using Google Chrome on my home computer, I've noticed that the text-entry box for posting a new message sometimes "forgets" how to handle left/right and up/down arrows; the cursor just stays resolutely put.

Mine looks nothing like this, but I use chrome both on laptop and my phone.

 

Very clean.  Maybe posting from work is not a good idea. 😏

I've experienced this loss of formatting on other web sites. If one inspects the execution log it is generally traceable to errors, generally failures to load a resource such as a css file. I don't have enough tech knowledge to figure out the cause of each failure, but in some cases it is an invalid or insecure url. In the case of a computer behind a corporate firewall, it may be that some domains are blocked.

I used to enjoy reading CC using Tapatalk on my phone or tablet while relaxing.  Since I'm an application analyst, I already spend enough time looking at a big screen.  Now I find it very difficult to navigate around on my phone.  Honestly I feel such a sense of loss because it's not really enjoyable to read CC on my phone.  If they aren't working with Tapatalk, I suppose they aren't working with any other apps as some have suggested.  I guess I'll just have to keep checking in to see if they return to Tapatalk.  Such a shame they did this.

Yep, I've had that happen on occasion with some of our own internal intranet sites and servers.   

Alas, the problem with CruiseCritic (yeah, maybe a CSS issue) has been continual.
