Well, I have tried to give it time to get used to. I have tried to convince myself the changes are good. I do admit things look cleaner in certain respects.

O.K., here's the other shoe. I cannot find things. For instance, tonight I've spent two or three minutes looking for the guides, which were incredibly easy to find using the old menu - just scroll to the bottom and click on "Guides." For those who think two or three minutes is nothing, it is an eternity when you are looking for something and wanting to get on with enjoying your free time. And I still cannot find them, but somehow I found them last night after looking for what seemed an eternity. That's not how "intuitive" works.

And the background. Nice and clean. And bright. But take a look at some of the old posts, the stickies in the class forums in particular, that people worked hard to liven up with colored text. I cannot see half of the colors on this background.

I know you folks must have put an incredible amount of time into this new layout, and I really appreciate the attempt to keep things fresh and looking good. But I really just want to be able to alt-tab while I'm playing the game and look things up in less than thirty seconds like I used to. That's what has kept me coming back to Allakhazam - the great information, and its easy accessibility. But I feel that's gone now.

While Guides has not be re-added to the new menu, and probably won't be, there is a link to the Guides category on the wow wikibase main page, in the General Info section. Direct link is :Category:Guides (WoW). All of the old guides, or at least those that are still up to date, are being moved into the wiki as quickly as possible.
