Hi everyone,
I have always liked the original white Revora Main skin, for some reason whenever I go into the BFME forums, it's impossible to have the Revora Main skin.
Please, fix this, I really dislike the new Bfme skin

It cannot be fixed. The skin is forced in the BFME division, and you cannot change that. You'll have to live with it, sorry.

I've always been curious as to why that theme is forced there.

What do you not like about the skin? I tried my best to make it readable and user friendly and most seem to like it. I can't satisfy everyone's desires though.Hi everyone,
I have always liked the original white Revora Main skin, for some reason whenever I go into the BFME forums, it's impossible to have the Revora Main skin.
Please, fix this, I really dislike the new Bfme skin
It's also forced in the Ice Forge forums too.I've always been curious as to why that theme is forced there.

I liked the normal Revora due to it's white and neutral appearance, the bfme skin looks great and it's good, but I just prefer the normal skin more, besides a little freedom of choosing won't hurt
I mean cmon.... "freedom" It's a reason why we have skin selectors man!

Well, the reason for the force is so that when guests and new people enter the BFME forums for the first time, they'll see the T3A forum skin. It may attract them to the forums more because of the custom and BFME themed skin.

But can't you make the bfme default just for that spot, and if you want, you could switch to Revora main or the D-day

No, unfortunately that doesn't work. You can set a board-wide default (done with the Revora skin) or force a specific one with no option for the user to override it.

Nice try Rob but that's not the real reason
It's a technical thing that has to do with the subcategories, I think

Well, no one ever told me the real reasons behind it so I went off what seemed correct.

No, you were right and 2play is wrong . I has nothing to do with subcategories, it's just an IPB limitation.

There probably is, and it's probably not worth the effort.
