Also, for posts, everyone is okay if the user stays on the right side?

I'm fine with the user being on the right, it would however be interesting to see what it would be like if the user was on the left (Unless it has been at one point and I'm just retarded).
I'm Pretty sure I should put something here...

Personally, I never wish to see the building header begone. I've become so accustomed to it, and would be disappointed seeing it go...
But if the majority wants something else, go ahead.

It was a couple times, actually.
And I like it being to the right. It's better being different and unique IMO.

I guess there is no real reason that it needs to be aligned a certain way. As for the header, I'd personally be content if the just looked better. We usually refer to this site as a city in forum fiction.

I think the header needs to match whatever you think the site represents. I'm not too bothered if it's buildings or not, but as long as it can be directly attributed to you, then that's good.

As for the mini profile, it doesn't cause any problems and it's not inherently better having it on the left side. Seems like a needless change.

Yeah, I like it better on the right side, but I guess if you want it on the left no one can actually stop you XD (BTW we need a smiley for that if they're going to be updated). I also think you should keep the city theme, but maybe a different view or something? And like I said before, it would probably be best for everyone if there was a way to choose between a light and dark theme that applied to the whole site.

We went from mountains to a city. This clearly shows that our "city," or forum, is advancing like a city in real life.

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.

Actually having the mini-profile on the left allows you to see who the poster is faster because you have your eyes to the left anyway looking for the first words of the post. Not that one can't tell from the avatar in their peripheral vision or from their signature.

I'm personally impartial to both ways so I see no real need to change it.
