I was dismayed at the changes to the forums list page and the message list pages. I find these pages unhelpful and hard to navigate now. My solution has been to start using the RSS feeds to take me straight to the message pages, thus bypassing the forum list and message lists entirely. My reader lists all of the forums in a page that does not need to scroll, the messages for a forum in a separate pane that only scrolls when I want it to, and of course a pane displaying the web page with the message.

I miss the Sakila points. Aside from the obvious ego boost, I find it helpful to know who is a regular participant versus who is a complete newbie.

Now that I am using the RSS feeds, I should mention that some of the RSS feeds are invalid occasionally, and some of the forums (.NET and the foreign language ones) I have never gotten a good feed from.
