One of the reasons DrudgeReport is still one of the most popular websites is because he didn't change his format. And he still has underlines!

Well that's an interesting take, considering the overwhelming consensus from his users have all said it sucks and they frickin hate it. So apparently, he doesn't care how it looks.
Or should I say, he doesn't care how it looks to anyone but himself.
Your "overwhelming consensus" consists of a couple dozen complainers with an unreasonable aversion to change, out of thousands of active users.

If you argument is things are so much better now just cause the style is different then I can't agree.

Yes. Thank you.
But that effect was already present when they highlighted under the cursor.

not to beat a dead line or anything, but the website does appear less organized without the lines.

Some nerd will be here shortly to tell you why you're wrong, and how you don't understand anything cause you're stupid don.
I'll bet ya $400.

Doesn't take a nerd to realize that the underscores were an unnecessary text decoration considering there are table borders around everything, and that adding lines makes the page look more cluttered and less organized.

don, you owe me $400.
Thanks

What in the cornbread frick is going on?

They decided not to 'cover and align' the titles on the separate/various boards by removing the underscore beneath each title.
Some think it's more visually appealing without the lines, some disagree.
