1. Logging in anonymously is no longer a feature, and it would be awesome to have it back. An anonymous login leaves no trace that you are online, hides the last time you were active, and it will show you as offline in posts and your profile. This is very handy for mods who are on a leave of absence, or for those who do not wish to be PMd to death because of the return of the "users online" that has been absent for so long. Nevermind, it was an option in the preferences panel.
2. Removed content in the ModCP. Shows the latest content that has been removed, and allows you to search for it. Extremely useful if you need to reference something that you deleted awhile ago.
3. The new look and feel is pretty bad IMO, others agree. The nav bar, as well as the search bar, title bars, logo, etc. should be back to what they look like on the actual website. The new look doesn't really reflect Minecraft, except for the colors. I know the latest web design phase is "metro", "flat", or "simple", but it really just does not work for a website like this. It looks amateurish. I would even say it looks similar to phpBB (aka Planet Minecraft), and that's not a good thing :|
4. Editing reasons no longer exist. Extremely useful if you would like to notify people that you updated the OP without them having to dig through tons of posts. Editing reasons can be filled out directly above the "save changes" button.
5. In your profile, your user group color should be shown on your name. Just looks nice and highlights the fact that someone is a staff member a bit more...

I like it personally. It's a lot cleaner to the dated L&F of the previous forum. I would say give it a little time first.

I seem to be able to add them
Must be a permissions issue then, will file a bug report.
Also, it would be very nice to be able to preview the edit history before rolling a post back. Some posts are edited a lot, and if we need to edit a few days back, we may need to roll it back multiple times just to get the right version of it.
You are able to preview the post before rolling back, not sure what you're on about. When you select the revision, it doesn't roll it back, it previews you with the post.
