New forum threads are, frankly, ugly in Monobook for the moment. This is largely because I'm applying styling to Wikia.css instead of Common.css — so all the conflicts between the new forum CSS and our own unique blockquote CSS are colliding disagreeably in Monobook.

It'll be fixed soon — but you don't get all the features of the forum in Monobook anyway. At this point — three years after the introduction of the Wikia skin, you're very much encouraged to just switch over to the Wikia skin permanently.
