The new forums are working as intended.

I just wish you can see an expanded view of everything, rather than having to enter sections to see all the sub-sections. Kinda annoying. i liked the quick view of the most recent post on everything.

Anyways, I like the look better. The color on the other forums was ugly, but that's just my opinion.

Don't take it personally if you think I was mean to you. I'm an ******* to everyone.

It's a penguin thing. Pingu FTW.

The new forums don't seem to be done yet, despite what it says in the updater, given that a lot of the threads like the Community and Dev digests are just full of a bunch of broken links that don't work. Maybe they will improve the look of the front page as well. I just don't like it but then I'm a grouch when it comes to dealing with change.

I agree these new forums are terrible, I havn't been looking on them nearly as much because I hate navigating around them!

For one, everything loads slow. It also takes more clicks to browse through the forums..making it even slower. All the background stuff is just annoying as I'd rather just read and post then look at pretty pictures. Also: what happened to all the avatars?

Oh and ALL the links are borked, so no guides, no links, no Dev Digest (wtf?) and no mids links??? Seriously? THats like half the forums broken.

I dont like the "sleeker sophisticated" look why not just keep it simple so we can read and post...thats what the boards are for right??

I love the new forums.


The tears of those who hate change are like mana from the gods.

To all those who are [censored]

Please keep on posting in forums you hate to look at and are going to stop using.

I am going to post this one more time for my secret mana drinking admirer! These forums suck I am not using them anymore!

Isn't Elf_Stalker was the designate Troll for this topic? I guess it is nice that all the English speaking servers have been merged onto the same page and it's also easier to switch between the EU and NA servers. I expect it will cause a lot of culture shock for people though.

I'm really gonna miss that auto spell checker feature cause I make more errors and typos than seems humanly possible.

That assumes there IS any culture on the NA servers. From the look of this thread ... well, I guess this isn't a good example.

Just trying to figure out how I'm supposed to calculate UK time seems pretty daunting. They don't even have identical Daylight Savings Time dates over there, right?

I think you should maybe be a bit more patient - you'll get used to them eventually.

People haven't gotten around to reloading or loading new ones yet. That's part of the cost of moving to new software.


Speaking of loading: I've got a siggy pic that I've been trying to upload. I put it on photobucket, same album where my avatar resides, but it's telling me I have an invalid URL. I copied the link that the pic provides, just like the avatar, but it no workie. Any clues? It's the right size and everything, so that's not the problem, no animated gifs or anything.

Edit: disregard the above...as you can see, the advice fixed it. Yay. Thanks gang.

Instead of using the image upload thing (shot in the dark here, but I guess that's how you're trying it), try just using the [ img] tags in the textbox.

I had the same problem. Just paste the image link directly onto your sig and don't use the url buttons at all.

I think I saw this show during spring break in Mexico.

Anyway, I do like the new background and such. Doesn't make it look so obvious that I'm trolling a non-work related website during work hours.
