Re: New forums: Upgrade or downgrade?

At first I was against this new forum, but since we have a girl masturbating smiley, this is awesome!

Seeing as you probably added the Apple scheme just for me, I guess its ok.

What's up with no more mods though?

Oh, we're still mods. We just don't have a visual indicator distinguishing us from normal users anymore. So we can be all stealthy. Of course, I find it a little silly that the freaking Googlebot gets a special username color and the regular mods don't, but whatever.

Also, a bunch of people's avatars seem to have stretched quite a bit in the transfer. But at least our posts weren't lost.

Anyway, I like the new boards. The ability to merge topics is great for cleaning up the clutter (now that I've figured out how to use it), the skins are nice, and it's really not much different from before.

Props on the Hello Kitty skin, it's super-cute (but too flashy for me)

Re: New forums: Upgrade or downgrade?

Well, I'm liking all the extra features it has -- It makes it looks so much more high-tech and stuff. I especially like that you can see who's checking what thread at the bottom

I say give it a few days and we'll get used to it.

I like it.

Incidentally, I find the smiley more disturbing than the :fap: one. Dunno why.
I also don't know why I'm bothering with little writing if the smilies are still full size.

I like it, some new customizable features that people have been asking for. I do miss my old default skin, but it's all good. I'll get used to this other skin. :)

About the avatar stretching, I was thinking it might be possible to change that in the Edit Avatar under Profile. Here's a screenshot of that:



See where it says, Avatar dimensions, that might help.

w00t, there's word censoring for people that don't want to see it, it's on by default. I requested that before because some people complained about it. :) Here's that screenshot (Edit display options under Board preferences):

This is also where you can change the order of the forum topics. jobe9779 asked about that earlier, and there it is. You know, I thought I saw the 'Posts per page' option somewhere, but I think I may have imagined it.

I liked the old layout better.

I'm pretty sure all of those smileys were already available before the upgrade, but they weren't all on display like they are now. It used to show the first 20, but it had a link just below them that you had to click to see the rest.

Confirmation?

Also, external links used to open in a new tab/window, now they don't.
That kinda sucks.

Also also...

I find it a little silly that the freaking Googlebot gets a special username color and the regular mods don't, but whatever.

Since when was the Googlebot a registered user?

Downgrade, I hate change :|

Also, it logs me out everytime I close the window so obviously it fuking suks. Also, whats the point in upgrading if you didn't add an arcade? I want to play nanaca crash!

Re: New forums: Upgrade or downgrade?

It has a whole bunch of new really neat things, but I think it too big of a step...I honestly think it's slowing down my comp haha. And i resized my avatar to shitty size gah...I'll get used to it :(

Re: New forums: Upgrade or downgrade?

I love it! I mean, the "Font colour" changer on the side is pretty hot. I'm happy!

I see trouble coming. I mean, isn't LazyTown colorfull enough. Now we are going to see posts like this and when it starts there's no end to it. It's going to be madness.

I have an assclown script which colorizes my posts

This is the most beautiful post I've ever laid eyes on. *Tear*

Re: New forums: Upgrade or downgrade?

I actually like colorful posts though

if you checked the 'log me in automaticly' box it should keep you in lest you delete history etc

Nah, it doesn't keep you logged in, it just logs you in again every time you open it.
Automatically, if you will.
