Tell John what is wrong. I'm a programmer. Telling me "I hate it" doesn't get you noticed. People who don't have specific complaints generally are just complainers who eventually just go along with whatever happens. In two years, they will complain about the next format too. But they will go along with that one too.
Be specific. It shows you really care.

Ok Appy, My suggestion since it's doubtful that Free Republic is going to go back to the old format is this. Either have more articles listed in the sidebar or let us pick a number of articles to be displayed in the sidebar. I think it is a good suggestion. It is quite obvious that many people liked the old sidebar and that is basically what we don't like about the new site design.
This is so horrible that i'm taking the FreeRepublic.com bumper stickers off of our vehicles and will discontinue making my $100/quarter donation to FR.
There is no way that I would contribute to crap like this or even acknowledge that i'm associated with it.
VullChit! "New Coke" VullChit!
You know what chance we had -- THIS ONE. THE OLD FORMAT WAS REALLY GOOD, THIS ONE IS A CONTINUING AGGRAVATION!
People have an honest and good reason for NOT having had paid attention to the Beta testing -- in prior upgrades John Robinson had tried many many tweaks -- we saw that happening, we commented on while it was happening, but for all the various tweaks, most of us just came to ignore them because they were so many.
Personally I tried the beta. Once. It was to slow. I never tried it again -- it was too far from the mark.
That more people WEREN'T trying and sticking with the beta should have been a clue.
Please let the old FR format return!
With that attiude you've probably never heard of customer service/satisfaction. You work for the government, right?
You have given all good programmers a black eye, sir. You wouldn't treat a dog this way, but you are willing to so ignore and mock us men and women?
It was on the beta site for a month. All the complaints were handled as they came up. All those who ignored the beta site will have to wait their turn. You had your chance to give input.* * * * *Tell John what is wrong. I'm a programmer. Telling me "I hate it" doesn't get you noticed.

Appy, people deserve considerable more respect than you have given here. Be not tarry in disavowing this clap-trap. You are better than this.
"Let them eat cake" HUH??
I'll be real specific in seven words:
THIS STINKS.
