I don't think there needs to be any sweeping changes, but as was mentioned, a few extra plugins would be nice. It's been a long time since I used vBulletin, it wasn't that plugin friendly back in the day, if you wanted that sort of thing you had to use phpBB or something like that. I'm sure it's come along since then though.

Hate that particularly shade of blue, prefer the black version of the forum I use.

I do agree that it needs an update.
I cant actually think of what needs updating - I 'like' the thought of a like button but I can also see why people would use that instead of contributing.
Undoubtedly tho just like Facebook, I won't like the changes at first, then I'll get use to them, then I won't remember how it use to be.

Been a lurker here for years before I joined. It should stay as it is.
It's uncluttered, functional (most of the time
) and easy on the eyes.
I'd hate for this to change like some other forums with animated signatures, multi-coloured writing etc., looks horrid!

Great contribution, as is this post.
I like the forums as they are.. Like said before a notification when someone quotes you could be helpful.. Especially in the GH forum.
Though it may want to be toggleable (is that even a thing).. And maybe sub-forum specific (can that even be done)..

I think functionally the site is fine and dosen't need anything done to it. Aesthetically I would like to see the same color scheme but with a more modern interface (think metro-ish).

I'd like a youtube plugin which allows full screen!
Keep the forums how they are, don't think we should be changing just for changes sake.

I think we should downgrade, full minimalist.
In truth I quite like it as it is.

I'd like to see a mobile app of some kind. Other than that, I can't think of anything.

The avforums update is horrendous, definitely leave it well alone.

AVS forum is probably my favourite looks and content wise.

It doesn't work perfectly on a mobile device, the search box often had issues on Chrome on Android, plus zooming all the time isn't a good UX. I wish the interface would be easier to mod on the move too but simply having a mobile theme will make me much happier.
