I also lost my profile picture, which i really liked.
And you can't edit your threads. Seriously, i had no problem with the old system. Why would you change it?
1. The avatars have been switched. I have to reupload my Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger back...
2. YOU SCREWED UP A LOT OF THREADS. All the code have been replaced by Rich Text verbatim! No one wants to look back on ALL their posts to fix them up!
pictures and videos and links dont work on topics or posts
i hate this horrible new format
change it back
or just fix the old urls to work
I read that like
"THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED!"
Is a forum admin a brony?
This.
The BBCode is messed up on every thread posted before the update.
And I lost my Avatar. Please, for the love of god, revert it!
My only complaint is the profiles; in my opinion it was better when all the information came up on screen at the same time. The current layout seems... wasteful?
The community stats and contact information boxes that display when you first view a profile are massive. Obscenely massive. Personally I preferred them tucked on the left, under other information. There if you're looking for it, but not intrusively so.
Its probably just my own aversion to change, but I think the new profile layouts in particular are a swing and a miss.
Thank you
1. No pic and avatar anymore, just an avatar that is used for everything.
2. Laggy, the old forum design was less pretty but didn't slow down when I post.
3. No more lava bucket icon! It's minor but it was more visible than the "hot topic" icon we have now.
4. You fixed some bugs but made tons of new ones!
Overall this update was kinda crappy. You made it look sleek and modern, but ruined some stuff we were used to.
Unless something changes this is gonna be terribly hard to get used to.
Avatars don't display, you can't edit posts, the way threads are formatted is ****ed, the layout is ugly, no hot topics, i lost my avatar and plenty of other annoying things.
Revert it back ASAP.
