I recently made a new forum account, because I forgot the password to this account, and it was just more convenient for me to make a new account, especially because someone thought it was a good idea to use the Google captchas that take 5 years to complete if you don't yield to the Chromium regime

What I noticed is how broken this forum is for new users

Compared to my old account, the welcome page is broken, the userlist is broken, creating a new private message is broken, creating a new thread is broken, and viewing member profiles is broken

User profiles are also broken, all I can do on the new account is add my profile names from other services, such as Facebook, Google+ (Is this even a thing anymore?), YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram

On my old account, I can upload an avatar, background image, set my first and last name, set my gender, set a public email, set a homepage, tell my hobbies, say stuff in a description, set my date of birth, set my occupation, set whatever an ICQ number is, and set a signature, on top of what all I could do with the new profile

Something I can see that is broken for all users is the "Anzeige entfernen" page, it just renders a blank page with no data

I can see how this would have been overlooked, but it's really bad for growth, because you're giving new users the impression that the forum is in a state of disrepair, abandoned by the owners and left to rot. That's what I thought until I dug for a browser profile with the cookie for this account, because I couldn't make this post with the new account
