Anyone else find this completely absurd? Why does one post consisting of "three" lines of text (rather, two) take up the entire page.
o3o
No offense to Xiyamae, of course, and yes, long signature indeed is long. (In response to the usertitle) I just kinda wonder why the space underneath each post but above the signature is so large. It's kind of odd.
I would appreciate it if the "default post box" was made smaller to accomodate individual posts, since they tend to run on the short side on Mabination anyway.
TL;DR: WHAT IS THIS SPACE AND WHY DOES IT EXIST D: VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

I kind of like it. It makes the posts less crowded and easier to read.

I agree with Tibarn, I'm getting used to it. :3
Buuut, maybe a tiny bit shrink would help?

To me, it just makes everything harder to read since you end up scrolling 3x more than the old layout. Less of a space would save time iguess.

Yup, I don't like it because of this.
It stretches out the page. My laziness prefers not scrolling through extra space just to read through a thread.

Uh, wow. I didn't even notice these huge spaces. Now it bothers me. Thanks :(
That's weird. Looking at the posts in this thread, it doesn't look like there's a universal size for posts that are under the "default post box" limit. It seems like the less text there is, the more empty spaces follow.

The "post" are fills up the the bottom of your information on the left. Pets and stuff extends this area even further. That's where the signature
begins.
Meaning, if you don't write enough to fill up more than your profile info on the left, you get a void.

Sorry to point it out :c
And my email is mostly from Key Club spam, if you're familiar with the organization. I only read things I'm interested in :P

I was going to complain about this, but seeing as you already did, oh well. I support the idea of changing the space issue, i don't like scrolling that much D:
How's APUSH?(Plans to take it in the next 2 years)
Key Club got boring at my school, people only join for the Rallies at amusement parks :O

It's really not a problem.
It's just a malfunction I guess.

It's not really a malfunction, it's just how the forum's designed to be. The signature won't ever go above the line that is parallel to the bottom of the user information on the left side.
The void just seems smaller on Mabiguru because signatures on the old forums are allowed to go pass the "boundary" of the bottom of the user info on the left side.
I don't mind either way, to be honest. It sort of makes each post stand out more equally.

Xiya sig is freaking huge, that's like half the problem right thar.
The other half is as Zid and Justified explained. Small posts look odd with it. Regular posts and regular sigs *glares at xiya* look fine on it.
On guru post and sig is in one "container" and just divided by a ___________________, over here post and sig is contained in their own places. It should be easy to change it to how guru has it, but for now apart from xiya's sig I see no reason for that.
