I think people are having a hard time adjusting to the new layout.

Really don't know why it's so hard to adjust unless they use no other forums. A lot of what was in SL gen1 site is still here, just with a lot more tools and less eye-soreish look.

It is a little hard to get used to the new layout.

yeah, noticed that too. I think it's cuz of summer time and the fact that gen1 xb's are out of production.

Yea pretty dead for sure. I was on clubsciontc a lot and then when they changed over their whole layout I got out of there and ended up over here. The question is whether their change will lead to increase in use like the changes that facebook made or a decrease in use like the changes that clubsciontc implemented.

All I know is it's even worse with no one on when you're trying to move parts out.

yea i guess it is mainly the new layout, but you know how u go to the home forum like
http://www.scionlife.com/scion/xb/ there would be the new posts on the side and the new classified posts on the other side. but i dont see anything new anymore.
like with this post i havent seen it on the right side of the home forum page. the latest topic threads are the one's from before the change. may be they wont show anymore like before??? just wondering guys....(i didnt even know people replied to this until i had to look at "my posts" and click on it....)

may be im just not used to change...hahaha
change scares me!!!!!

The new site is just a bit harder to find and navigate through!

I never knew that page even existed before this post. So I guess no loss to me.

So I'm the odd duck. After a couple days of adjusting, I have become more active than I was on the old SL.

I think it has to do more with the fact that these xB's are getting older and fewer enthusiasts are owning them. The tC's and xB2's are still new and those forums are fairly active.
