So I've been curious for awhile about something. I have always used the longer menu on the side even though the shorter menu is recommended. I feel like the long menu is easier to access things and more detailed which is why I like it better. Does anyone else use the longer unrecommended menu too, or is it just me?
Poll:  Do you use the long menu or the short menu?

I've never really had trouble finding what I was looking for. It took me a while to find out there was a Long Menu and I was already very used to the short one when I did, so I never switched.

So... I have pretty much concluded that BB should switch the Long Menu to the recommended menu instead of the short menu. I think it would help new managers explore more through the game, not to mention more people use it and it seems to work better.

There isn't even an explanation of why the short menu's better. Doesn't make sense.

I have a huge screen and thus I use the long menu. Like a bawse.

I just started using the long menu a couple days ago. Not bad, but I'm a lot more used to the short menu.

The short menu is recommended because it helps new managers understand how to use the basics of the game before flooding them with all of the other stuff. When all they can see is the team link, league, manage my team, and the forum it helps herd them in that direction. That way rather than spending the first bit of their time trying to figure out which part of the menu is important they can figure out how to work those important parts.

Because I know what I want I find it easier to use the long menu to get there though. So maybe it should say recommended for beginners?

I love the long menu. I've never used anything else. :-)
