I guess I would be outnumbered when I say "don't fix it if it isn't broken". I wouldn't mind if the forum stayed the way it is.
I also have no problem keeping the forum as it is now, it serves its purpose, and apart from the looks and some new features users and their posts will not change for the better with any new forum. From everything I've read about the new forum, I got the impression that many are not really so interested in the fate of the new forum, but wonder how it is possible that the whole thing takes so long and how much money has actually been spent on the project so far. I personally don't bother with these issues, this is a private forum after all and the owner has the right to postpone the launch of a new forum for the next 10 years if he wants to - all this arguing about when this will happen will certainly not speed things up.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I get what you mean, but it's kind of the fact that it was promised it was coming very soon multiple times, and it still hasn't come.

@enzogla, I can't speak for you, but I've received a lot of promises in my life that haven't been fulfilled to this day (and I believe they will stay that way), so I've learned that any promise should not be taken for granted. Life is too short to bother with such trivial issues, because a new forum will not improve your or my life - and from the comments, you could conclude that most old members would not mind if the forum remained exactly as it is now.

Theymos should airdrop the forum donations to all active accounts with addresses in their profile. Beginning with accounts that start with "n"
Mmmmm, ok, I second this proposal About the " BTCitcoin museum", I agree that it is a pity to lose the vintage UI but the idea should be that the new features and improvements made worth the loss. Anyway, I think that there is a much more important issue that should be fixed, with or without the new forum, which is the lack of proper SEO/SEM, essential IMO if we want to keep being competitive against other Social Media.

The new generations don't like forums anyway because there are other and faster methods of communicating. I'm not convinced that creating a new modern forum would do much in generating an increased interest in Bitcointalk. What it will do is create various bugs and glitches and user complaints.
I wouldn't really say that the new generations dislike forums. Just that now there are more discussion platforms, but forums still have a place especially niche communities. If there's an official TikTok forum, imagine how many zoomers would flock their way there while I just watch from the sidelines and smh my head

I'm confident that if Theymos really wanted to upgrade bitcointalk he could easily do so in a much shorter time period.
That's correct but it doesn't make sense to introduce it before it has passed all of its tests [it'll be a workaround that might introduce other problems as opposed to a solution]. As far as I can tell it's not being tested at all, not in a structured QA manner anyway, at least I'm not aware of any test plans or even requirements to be tested against. There are some volunteers putting their own time into this but that's not going to result in high (or even acceptable) quality software. I've already expressed my dismay numerous times at spending hundreds of bitcoins to create a piece of software and stopping 10-20 BTC short of pushing it over the finish line but what do I know.

I'm of the same opinion as @nutildah @Pmalek @Lucius and @JohnBitCo
The most important aspect of the forum is the content, that will remain the same regardless.
It might be nice to have a new forum eventually but im not getting impatient about it, it will arrive when it arrives until then this is still working fine.

So, in conclusion, the new forum isn't coming and we're sticking with the current one? It's not necessarily a bad thing, but theymos kind of ripped people off as far as I can see.. for example Matthew from my original post ( link to his thread) I'm not saying he's a bad guy or anything, but can we at least know if we the new forum is or is not coming? As I've found out in this thread, lots of people don't actually mind the current forum and don't mind sticking with it.
