Remember everyone, its just a beta. With enough public outcry (and there is definitely enough) they will change things. I personally don't mind how the site is now, although It looks way better black, using the hashtag system you can easily get the flood back, in some form.

I've seen many websites change like Youtube, Flickr, and google, changes just as bad or worse than these met with thousands of complaints. Not once did they change them.

but those weren't betas, and bungie is usually pretty receptive to community input.

If you don't like something, say what you don't like in #suggestions and #feedback and #community and #offtopic (you can put multiple hashtags on one thread). Then see what people say. Bungie's done this in order to get feedback, if you don't actually tell them what you don't like; then the stuff you don't like will be in the final build.
