OK... So what do we have to do to get Y!A to go back to the old format?

The way I figure it, if there's more than enough of a demand, then Y!A will have no choice... None, what-so-ever, but to go back to the old format... Which was obviously so much better than the piece of crap format, that we unfortunately have now.

    Just go to the Canadian site and be done with it.

    Apparently, they are modeling themselves after Facebook, forcing changes on us that nobody needs or wants! Ignoring what the public asks for, and forcing crap on us that everyody hates. Too bad they aren't smart enough to learn from Facebook's mistakes!

    I copied the link someone put on your last question, and saved it to my favorites. It does take you straight to the old format, without having to change your location to Canada, which is what I'd been doing on the rare occasions I now come here.

    The format change was pretty much the last straw for me. I was pretty much into the fish section (as you know). When we moved I had to sell my tanks, so I'm too depressed about that to want to "talk fish" everyday, anyway. I just don't come here much any more, unless I have my own question about something.

    Switch it to Canadian version, we still have the old format...

    go to international and click on Canada and it will turn back to the old format

    everyone seems to hate the new format, I had for a little while, got use to it and then Canada changes theirs back to the old format..I do like the old one better , but the new had it perks too...I could see who always gave me the thumbs down...

    We....follow the yellow brick road, riding on elephants, listening to music, drinking and eating, dancing on the elephants, go through the haunted mansion, fight off freddy krueger, become friends with the grudge, have a tea party, then fly on the dragon smaug with legolas, elrond and tuariel, saying hi to gandalf as we go, then arrive at Minis tirith and speak to denethor and ask him politely to change the format then if he doesnt, burn him and eat icecream afterwards..... ;D

    Nah just go on yahoo answers canada!

    We would all have to boycott Y!A until they put the old layout back in place. Go green!

    DELETE THE COOKIES & U will get the old green Y!A back. I did it too.

    That would be great, but I think it's a lost cause.

    There is really no way to go back i think..

    Ain't gonna happen. Just get used to it.
