It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

Johny.: Most of game titles were capitalized in the template. (server-side) That's why uppercased titles were copied.
Just so you know, the usernames in the hover cards on the forum are still showing uppercased.
JavaScripts broken (e.g. homepage Account menu, promo page; both Firefox and Chrome) because someone enabled CORS but the subdomains fail for that?

Is it something with my browser or did the forum font change?

I use Firefox and for me it looks normal.

I'm seeing the font change too (MacOS w/Chrome)

I immediately noticed this when I loaded the comment thread for the release of Crawl a little bit ago. Not sure if I like it. It seems like they might've changed it to whatever they use for the text on the product pages. Not sure why. "Consistency", I imagine.

Anyone else finding it a bit too small? I can't tell if it's actually a bit smaller, or if it's just somewhat harder to read than the previous forum font. I actually had to bump up the zoom for the site in my browser, just to get it to roughly the same level of legibility it was for me before. Luckily, this doesn't really affect anything else that I've noticed, but I hate having to do that.

I like it, but I cannot read it as well as before. :\

Try reloading a forum page with Ctrl + F5, then see...

Just tried it and it still looks the same.

Dunno, then. I assure you, it's not just a mass hallucination on the part of those of us who've noticed. :P
My guess is that: A.) There are different servers or something, not all of which have seen this change go through yet, and some users are still drawing from those (I'm not at all sure that's how this works); or B.) You never paid much attention to the font in the first place, so didn't notice when it changed. (The differences are kind of subtle, admittedly.)

EDIT BEFORE POSTING: I just noticed that the font displayed in the "Add or edit your post" popup window is still the old font, so one can directly compare the two. The letters of the new display font seems to be slightly broader and squatter, and maybe a bit more rounded.

A) You could be right about the servers.
B) I would've noticed because as I've gotten older my eyes have become very sensitive to fonts and font size. Getting old sucks :p
I compared the font from the forum to the font in the popup window and the only difference is that the forum font is brighter.

Edit: fixed a spelling error

For anyone not seeing the changes, you can compare the old to the new in the attached images.
EDIT: Holy Jesus, the quality became super shitty upon uploading! Still, there are some noticeable differences, such as the :P at the end of the first sentence

I directly saw the font change and yep, after all those years, it's almost a mouth-dropping shock :D

EDIT: although it's not as traumatizing than when they changed the color scheme of the website.

Phew, and here I was afraid that accidentally hitting Ctrl + Alt + down arrow wasn't the only stupid thing I had done in the last few minutes...

I can't say I'm fond of the font though.
