This has been posted about before, but I just got on.

The ads.

They Suck.

They are terribly placed.

They should not be so prominent.

The site design is suffering for it.

Yourabi, I realize more ads may be necessary, but I hope you change out the layout so it isn’t as ugly.

And for you Firefox Users…

I agree now if you want to see what posts have been put up then use this page….

http://help.com/history/1

They only reason to use the home page is to see what friends are online.

I would like to see more users that are online in this part of the home page.

More money for cnet…. step back in design.

I actually use the front page to look at the newest posts. I think the see which friends are online could be put in your profile, it already shows some of your friends there, why not implement it there?

True.

But the first change should be repositioning of the ads. I would say removal, but I doubt they’ll ever leave now..

advertising was inevitable…. but the page can also be a lot more developed and useful.

I blame Yourabi for this. The implementation was probably forced upon him, but his execution of it is terrible.
