On the homepage, the forums link on the left side of the page opens up a new tab. It wasn't really an issue for me before because there was the link where the old latest posts used to be the wouldn't do this, but now the sites feel even more separated because navigating to the new site from the old site opens up a new tab. Just an aesthetics thing I noticed that would be pretty easy to fix.
It's been this way since March. Nothing has changed since then. Also, the integration has yet to happen and we're not moving backward.
