Forum space vs screen real estate Follow

The ratio seems worse today than ever before. Using my fingers as I don't care to find a more accurate device the space on sides of the 'forum box' is larger than the space showing actual content.

When did this happen, I swear the forums were larger before I went to sleep. I checked the normal wow.alla, regular alla and that there live view thing and all had the same tiny box that contained threads.

What's going on?

Did you accidentally zoom out on your browser?

I haven't noticed a change. I'm using Firefox.

Nope didn't change the zoom, and everything else looks normal. Chalk it up to senility then.

Hmm, never mind my last post.

I was checking on my smaller monitor. It looks the same as usual on there, but I'm noticing a larger area of wasted space on my main monitor.

Ya, I doubled checked. One of the threads I post in often the page count after the title is way more cramped and pushing to be on a third line instead of barely on the second one.

Who shrunk the forums?

You'd think with all of the complaining you've seen lately, that they'd just stop ******* with ****. This is the exact reason I turned autorenew off, and it will be the reason that I NEVER turn it back on. Seriously, leave **** alone.

1440 x 900 monitor resolution. Put the forum space and the ads together. The ratio of useful real estate and complete BS ads is becoming close to 1:1; currently 788 forum : 652 ads.

In what universe is this an acceptable layout?

Heyo folks - sorry about the teeny-tiny forums for a day. There was an issue with an ad that we were running, but it's been fixed. All should now be rectified.

And sorry for not responding to this sooner. I wasn't available yesterday so didn't see these posts until this morning.
