I still think you should add a margin between members post. Added a screenshot to explain.
+1 this would make it much easier to read.

Yeah, I was fine with it when I knew it was VB. But I'm so used to pasting images into replies on other XF forums it seems a shame that it's not enabled here and feels cumbersome now having to go to an external hosting site.
I sort of understand considering the size of the site, but it's not like hardware or cost is an issue considering it's a company forum run by techies.
I guess the content of the hosted images would potentially be more of an issue.

Not sure this has been mentioned but when in a forum with sub forums can the "post new thread" button be moved to the same place as when in the sub forum. Would elimate the big gap as week. Hope that makes sense.
i think I am getting used to the new layout now and like it.

Doh didn't twig it was just first unread. If that's the case then just needs a page 1 adding to the page number shortcuts next to the thread.

Yeah, it's a forum that's the public face of the UK's best high-end PC hardware retailer. So I doubt hardware is ever going to be a problem.
That was there when the forum was refreshed with 5 lines between posts and it looked bad. It got removed.
I don't remember seeing that. It was like Swifty55's mockup on the old site and worked perfectly. I think part of the problem is that now the 'Report', 'Trust', 'Multi' and 'Quote' buttons are 'within' the post, rather than in a bar below the post itself but still connected to the same 'block' as it used to be.
Find a screenshot of the old forum posts, a single block for each post which contains the avatar stuff on the left, post and buttons makes a lot more sense than the current layout.

I like the new layout, finally I can use it on my phone with normal scaling without needing to zoom in on everything. 
You can turn on auto watching of threads that you've created or replied too. So no, not "expected" to do anything.

The mobile site is pretty gash still - the actual posts take up about 1/10 of the screen, the rest is avatar and blue bar!
You can use desktop through mobile browsers (option at bottom) whilst we continue to work on suggestions.

I have tried but I have to zoom in to see anything which is probably worse. I'll tough it out though
Add some borders on the post list page as it just looks weird without them and make the forum more obvious using bold or something 
.discussionListItem {
background-color: rgb(28, 87, 128);
border: 1px solid rgb(0,51,102);
padding-left: 5px;
}
.discussionList .sectionHeaders {
padding-right: 7px;
}
Bold needs a proper selector..

Please make the font colours more accessible when you're
I totally agree - this is a better forum for mobile use, but it needs a bit of visual tweaking. My main complaint is the white font everywhere - it needs more colour differentiation when you are v viewing a forum - here is my mock-up of how I'd like it to look:
