    Marry: "a cleaner, lighter, tighter look that removes a lot of the clutter"
    Snog: "Moneysupermarket.com has not had any influence on the decision or content of the redesign"
    Throw off a cliff: "compete at the highest level as a social media site"

    Throw off a Cliff: the fact that everyone can click on a person's username and see much more information about that poster than they could before.

    Okay I may be being stupid but what does each category mean,
    I read it as, Marry - something you really like, Snog - something that you are happy with and Throw of a cliff - something you hate.
    is that correct.

    More or less, I think.
    I 'sort of' asked for clarification in the thread earlier, but didn't get a reply on it, so eventually edited that part out, since the OP asked us to keep the thread to a tight three-line response. (I will be deleting this post later.)

    I took 'marry' to be something you felt that you couldn't do without (e.g. if it didn't exist in the new design you would have to seriously reconsider your use of this forum). Then 'snog' as something you like, and 'throw off a cliff' ... well that's obvious.
    I'm beginning to wonder though whether I should have restricted myself to just 1 item in each category. There are loads of things that need to take the trip over the cliff (IMO). ;):D

    looking at previous answers it looks like im not the only confused one.

    Marry: Multiquote
    Snog: The Arms and Discussion Time
    Throw off a cliff: Twitter and Failbook stuff, 30 second between post rule, trolls & spammers

    Also, I hope the registration captcha is going to get updated.

    Marry: My fellow board guides and the MSE team.

    Snog: Active forums with lively debate (you do not have to be 100% right all the time)

    Throw off a cliff: Anything to do with kitchens. The idea that you have to be a social networking site, seriously, forums are not doing too well as it is without trying to be a facebook/twitter clone.

    Marry: The Arms
    Snog: Quick reply
    Throw off a cliff: The constant stream of trolls that are allowed to come back time and time again, the pointless search facility that is less than useless, the closing / locking of threads without any explanation. The completely pointless badges. All that crap down the right hand side.

  • All to do with the Competitions forum

    Marry:
    The ability to filter out "liked" competitions on the comp forum
    Snog: The ability to delete posts so they no longer clutter up your own board
    Throw off a cliff: Not having a set format for listing comps..i.e. End date format should be as standard when posting a comp.

    Snog-The preview post facility
