I just noticed that every forum index page looks much busier now than before, because the time and date of the original post is added to each thread. The page is BUSY BUSY BUSY!

Completely and totally agree. Is there any way to remove the original post date and time information??? I don't really understand why such information needs to appear.

Looks like this feature being tested at the moment?

Sorry guys, I hate it - adds way too much clutter to the interface. Can I ask, please, is there a way for an individual member to toggle this off?

Okay.

Regardless, as I and others have asked, is there any way for each member to remove the information from appearing?

Yeah, it would be great if this were configurable so that those of us who are getting serious headaches from the new format, can configure the system to give us the old format.

Agreed. Very bad. Not to mention on Today.

How about changing it so that it comes up when you hover over (or click) the OP's name? Shouldn't be difficult.

I like the fact that the original date is there, but this is so hard on the eyes. The time is unnecessary. Any way to not include that?
