Lmao, not to be blunt or anything 
I tried to go into the forza 5 discussion section and I got the following error message "There has been a serious error loading the forum. No further information is available.
Please contact the administrator if this message persists." So yeah I would say the forum is a little buggy. I understand they are trying to be “fresh” but a simple’er forum might be better as they go forward, but I will give this one some time and then cast my judgement.
you get that error if you try to access the old urls, delete your bookmarks and make new ones.
My issue is the forum just runs on. there is no break up of the threads down the page. the constrasting colours dont work IMO etc.
just seems like bad design more then anything.
im getting the error when clicking on half the links, posted in another thread to see if im the only one,clearly not
active topics, my topics, forza 5 discussion all these lead to the serious error
yep getting that myself now.
well glad im not the only one but its making browsing very tricky
don’t worry Dust, you’ll be able to customize the forums to your liking in a future Forum DLC Pack! Lol. I agree completely with you on the contrasting colors. Very hard to read the small font also.
Having a similar problem. If I follow any of the links in the forum - including the menu to select a forum at the top of the page, I get the same error message as the op. The only section that doesn’t give me this error when picking a link is the direct post links under the “Active Topics” tab.
I think the function and features are pretty good, like the quick reply and some mouse-over descriptions, but the design of black and white is too much, also the main font size in posts is too small.
The best place to post feature requests or design issues is here: http://forums.forza.net/turn10_postst265_New-Forums-Wish-List.aspx

I tell you something: For the past three months I’ve been trying to get the old forums to work, to register, to log in. Always error messages about the Live service. Now it works. That’s good enough for me. And I already think it’s much better to have the clear seperation between the different games. Having one Fantasy livery thread for all games was just confusing.
The quote screen is great…lol…I had to increase to 125% for clarity on new format. Don’t like it but can live with it…It’s better organized but not as user friendly as the old one in my opinion. What’s up with the gamer pictures?
The font needs to be bigger… I don’t have superman vision, I almost have to squint my eyes to see. It also requires a lot of scrolling. For me, two replies take up the entire screen.
I agree the font needs to be bigger… I had to set zoom to 120% to read the text
id say the font is fine if i set to 120% fonts way too big
So I’m not the only one who has no issue with the font. Sweet.
Let the photos fill the page, and adjust the Xbox Live gamer picture synchronization, and I’d be happy.
Is anyoneelse having issues with the avatars not working and covering a lot of words in the post? Im guessing its because im on a tablet
I think the font is OK, but it gets lost next to the huge box covering your name/avatar/levels etc.
Other than that, works OK on my phone and laptop - other than most tiers showing as 1. We’re not all that new, I know!!
These forums are now VERY, VERY difficult to read! - text is way too small and the colors are horrible for readability. I can scale up the size, I know, but it doesn’t scale well - too much scrolling side to side required and the colors - gray on black/dark gray, really? I don’t see an option to change that!

I thought the old one was hard to read. This one hurts my eyes even more. I wish they would lose the black back ground.
