Is the new profile box good or bad? I got it now on my account.

First of all: it looks very clean, but misses the status.

Secondly: I get the cleaning up of the box, but Chess.com now removed the report/block/partner/invite buttons, and many more. Also, now these functions take up 2 extra steps. You go to the profile and click on the three dots. Then you can choose your function. It's not as easy as the old box.

What can I say: The new one looks cleaner. The old one was more functional. Write your opinion in the comments below: is it a good update, or just as bad as the new game review? 

Personally, it could've been cleaner AND have the same features exactly as we want.

I like the new version.

EDIT: The new one can show whether this person accepts friend requests, blocked you, etc.

Yay. That's why I like the new version.

Personally, both are fine, but I agree, new one is better.

I prefer the older version, where you can easily follow, report, block and view their status. this one's a little inconvenient, but not as bad as the new game review.

The old one is better.

I liked the old one for the functionality but both are decent

The old one is better. You can't see when they were last online or their status there. And also, on the new profile page thingie, it says that people are offline when they're online.

Both are fine, but new one for sure

It's lovely that Nepo is shown as a 1200-rated player.

CC must have hired a bunch of designers and told them to ruin the site by any means necessary, starting with Game Review and moving forward from there. It's as though the site is trying to destroy themselves with a series of untested changes that are universally hated. Danny Wrench must be hitting the sauce or something.

*ahem* first of all, it's Rensch not Wrench.

Secondly, you can also blame @erik, he's the CEO.
