Thanks for giving back the UI!

I know progress cannot be halted, but when I first clicked "download torrent" and it started instantly, without the option to select what I want to download, where I want it, how it will be named... And then theres only a freakishly big folder icon, taking up a lot of space unnecessarily with some information below in  VERY small size!

It honestly felt like Micro@oft or G@@gle have taken over the project, throwing away "those confusing information thingies" and "making it faster, smarter" and such - which means they know what I want better then I am and "don't bother thinking".

So I just want to thank you for giving us back the ability to choose, to receive information without a magnifier and to your hard work (and flexibility)!

Thanks, guys!

I never claimed to be nice.

It was never removed.

The original UI was never gone. We just changed which one shows up by default.
You can toggle views by hitting the column button in the top right.

Does that mean that our torrent list is no longer double or triple-spaced, as it was after 2.2.1?

I went back to an older version, and will not use any of the new ones, until that particular issue is resolved.

Just change what to display under Options.
This is mine, µTorrent 3.2 Beta.

Re: Thanks for giving back the UI!

It worries me that it's so hard to get a straight answer around here. Makes me think that there's something you'd rather we not know.

You messed up the interface. Version 3 wiped out all our familiar settings upon installation. If we happened to have a screenshot detailing how we had the program set up (not likely), we could change the column selections and display information as we saw fit, but with one GLARING discrepancy: the torrent list was either double or triple-spaced. And we were told there was no way to fix that; we were stuck with your whacked spacing from now on.

Now you refuse to even give a straight answer about spacing. Do you have any idea how that makes you look?

I can keep using my non-Facebook version of the software until you decide that you don't really hate your users after all.
