I love the quick reply under each post that quotes the post.
Forum template is so messy and poorly formatted and hard on the eyes that, well, I agree that it hurst just to browse here.
Someone needs a 101 class in "Internet: keeping it simple, less is more, focus on content - not clutter"
There are so many non-content and colored elements in this template that most of the time the actual content of a thread, or the thread title, is the least obvious thing on the page.
Fair-play for keeping on top of most of the requests.....
Now that the font size has been raised on the thread listing page, the font itself sucks.
- Font sizing on forum pages look good to me but they are still tiny when you click "new posts".
which...........................................is now fixed. Looks much better, to me anyway!Quote:

Really? I checked my browser three times to see if I had mistakenly enlarged it to 150%. Maybe down a point or two?
argh! just cutting off the tail end of a thread title in the search results to fit in a single line is not going to do it. especially for threads that contain a long name and "NSFW" at the end. You have a limit of the number of characters a thread title can have, this means you should be able to fit them in the necessary number of lines in search results.

To help that they can shrink the replies/views box. 100% no need for it to take up so much goddamn space.Quote:

- Lose the BIG HUGE email looking ICON on the left of the threads
Thanks for the work!
Why, for fucks sake, why?
Worst idea ever. :sad face emoticon that shakes his head in disappointment:Quote:

Basically, forum homepage looks good. Smaller Icons, larger fonts. The more simple it gets, the better.
When I click into individual forums (Ski/Snowboard, Padded Room) the font used for posts appear smaller than what they were yesterday. (Yesterday it looked very similar to the old forum font, so it was good. Today, not so much). Font selection/size for quotes in threads is unreadable.
Also, icons to the left on individual forums are too big, make them match the icon size from the forum home page.
Thanks and good luck.
you still running Window98 Root? :wink:Quote:

Good god, I am asking myself the same thing. I know change is necessary but man, it's quite abrupt on the eyes.Quote:

Um, can we just have the old font and size please?
i posted this in the "top 3 things" thread, reposting here to make sure it's seen.
1) remove "started by" below the thread title. just put the name, much easier to read the lobby and less clutter. pops out much more if its not buried three words in. or bold the name. possibly even remove the date it was started. just too much clutter overall.
2) quick navigation at the bottom of a thread. i want the one click back to the forum that you are in. right now, you have to click to open the whole drop down menu, then search through and click again for the forum you want. very annoying if you know how it used to be. i think there used to be a "go" button that is now gone. it kind of defeats the purpose of "quick navigation". also the "top" button doesn't seem to do anything. (maybe top = go but it doesn't work??)
3) put handles in bold for each post. doesn't make sense the way it is now. plus the "registered user" or whatever is right below the name is bolded, hmmmmm
4) resized pictures. most of the pics that were up previously are now resized wayy too small. maybe add a script to only resize the huge ones that require the left-right scrolling that cunt up some pages.
5) remove the "report post" link on bottom left of a post. i mean, isn't this an unmoderated forum anyway?
6) the ads are fucking annoying. i know they are necessary i guess, but really, i don't care that 56,000 people like TGR on facebook. don't let facebook in, it's a disease i tell you.
7) develop a mobile-friendly version. Tapatalk pleaseeeeeee
ok thx bye
This is for spam and for when people break the few rules that are here. Problem is, 99% of the posters here either ignore spam when they see it or bump the shit by saying something stupid when it could get resolved ASAP if reported.Quote:

Is there another work-around for doing this kind of search within the site now, or is it just another bug waiting to be fixed?
Gameface, if you want to email the powers-that-be and get it solved (since you have an "in" and all... :wink:) have at it!
Oh, and this would be nice too!!

The rest of the stuff I can live with if I must, but these two issues, especially the speed issue, are really a bummer.
