It's Back! #3 : Othor Games

Location is back! Hooray.

Yeah, that is a bit sad. I liked being able to know where people were from, it was easier to tailor your answers to them.

Like now?

IT'S BACK!

Huh, for a while, people's interests were displaying as well.

What...location and interests are now displaying...

And I thought I was going crazy...but that's good to see that location is back.

Location is back! Hooray.

Well, at least we know they're not completely opposed to changing things.

I think old_andy put it best: it's like someone redecorating your favorite bar, your dive, your second home... If this place used to be a bar, it's now an up-market cocktail lounge and steakhouse. And a narrow one at that.

Maybe this color is better

Or this?

Actually, this is something I came to realize while forum lurking, and you guys gave me another proof of it!

The white on black is real bad. I had the Green background before, and I could semi-read/sorta-read the text as I scrolled down the page. Now, I scroll, and everything is a white blur, which makes surfing through this topic looking for posts coming after the last one I saw... very headache inducing. Your colored text actually was easier to read while scrolling.

And along with that, the scrolling down a topic page is laggy and stuttery, which is just not right. I think I'm going to be testing colors every post now. Find one that hurts less and blurs less.

Also, in your profile you no longer have a list of your topics to view? I guess they felt we needed to see the whole first page of a topic instead of just it's tiltle and a link now, so you have to scroll through pages of crap - and most of the topics you started have been wiped out.

Tick the "Do not show a post preview" box and search by author.

My complaints have already been mentioned, mainly the lack of screen usage and the greyness (I liked the green, myself). I can get used t either/both of them, but I doubt I'll develop any love.

I miss Ernesto, he had way more character and likeability than these cyber chinchillas

Yay! It's finally back! Woohoo!

I'm not a fan right now, but that's only because I haven't used it much...I don't get why they changed it tbh :shrug:

Still, what's happened has happened I guess, so I'll just have to get used to it.

Also, browsing this in 1080p on a 24inch monitor is ridiculous!

The new forum works slower than the old one for me. I hope that they will fix that. I liked the old forum.

This one looks OK, but I find it laggy.

Edit: Mozilla Firefox 3.6

While I don't mind the look of it, it's horribly laggy and slow. I have a decent computer, but I still have to wait several seconds just to scroll a page down. Unless there's a drastic improvement in the site's performance I won't be coming here all that often, I just don't have the patience fot this.

Same here, put my post down to the old 20 per page and its just as slow as the default.

This update totally [censored] with the lists in my "discussion threads"

In the Portal 2 thread, the Xbox Live and Steam lists are now one list.

In the Call of Duty dicsussion, the waiting list for the clan has been merged with the Xbox Live list.

THEY'VE TURNED MY FAVOURITE FORUM INTO A GASTRO-FORUM.

Well it's finally back up, i'm not instantly loving this new look, even though it IS shiny..

Have to explore it's new features a bit more before voting.

Does anyone else not like how there are two different images for users now? I just set the non-avatar one as the same as my avatar.

» Fri May 27, 2011 10:10 am

Meh, it's okay. I'd like to see a wider skin, otherwise, I don't mind.

Yeah I don't understand why they just don't keep your avatar as your profile pic.

I'm on a freaking iPhone, gamesas. A piece of hardware capable of rendering full websites. Why am I stuck with a craptacular "mobile" version?

» Fri May 27, 2011 7:06 am
