I'm wondering the same thing.

If I recall correctly, we used to have previews, before we switch forums a long while ago... And it always annoyed me that I couldn't hover over the Dev Tracker links to see a preview like I could in other sections of the forums... Having the automatic preview is more preferable by me than zero preview!
Just mah Oh-pin-yuns!

EDIT:
Didn't see this as I'd left the page open for a while before replying...

I can understand that!
Yeah, if they could add the usual preview via hover over, we could both be happy.
Honestly though, I'd not really complain either way!

The RSS feeds for both dev digest and community digest are still broken.

They broke at the same time it changed to show the message previews; it seems the template or whatever got modified and now the RSS feeds return the HTML page rather than RSS format.

And are you using Firefox?

Villain skin on Firefox works fine for me.
I use safari on iPad and it works fine for me

I consider the Dev Digest's current format useless and unreadable. I don't care at all about previews. I only want to see at a glance what devs have posted and what the topic was. The "search-like" preview page is formatted so that this is hard to see at a glance - everything is more spread out vertically and the information I care about is embedded on multiple lines in that vertical spread. Who posted is also much smaller text.

Also, I want the RSS feed back, as this is my primary means of checking both the Dev and Community Digests. Right now the RSS feed is dead.

The skins seem fine to me using Firefox. I am finally able to revert back to the Hero skin without it being all out of whack.

Uber - the bork of the digests seems to be the cause of the RSS bork.

Anyway - Firefox, Chrome, and mobile Safari - bork in both skins.

I am having the same issue with the RSS feeds. Apart from that all seems as it was to me.

Oh, I did figure. I meant it as a reinforcement of my wanting the digest format back.

Now, that's weird. What version of Firefox? I'm on 3.6.24, and the skins both seem fine for me.

I'm just torqued by the "eight hours max idle time" bulldookie. If I go to work or go to sleep, I'm guaranteed to get logged out. That is *stupid*. There should be no reason to nullify my cookie for some stupid "security reason". What forums I can post to should be tracked on the server end, not within my damn cookie, so there's no reason to expire my cookie if I don't want to. It's not like you can change anything within the master account or game by hijacking my forum login - the data in the cookie doesn't cross-over to the ncsoft store, and the game doesn't care about cookies at all.

That explains why it looks like someone tinkled on my forum handle.


Welcome to everyone that was unable to access the forums before. This is a move that was overdue.

Now if we could only do something about the help channel. I'm getting tired of turning it off on every character on every server.
