    i really like how split up the game forums on the left by alphabetical order. That way some games dont get special treatment then others.

    And i agree i would enjoy a different color theme. I'm not a fan of grey.

    You can still delete the message by viewing it first.  But it does make the checkbox in the list view kind of pointless.  We'll get the delete back in the list view.

    new design, Im glad they moved all those cutsie annoying Jap mmo banners to the bottom, not sure about the pop up bubbles for the news section though, I prefered it the way it was, but overall the site is easier to take in now.

    Its a trick...get an axe!

    Two things.

    1.  Which page you are currently on is not becoming un-clickable when you are on that page.

    What I mean is the area on the bottom and the top of the thread that shows something like:

    2 Pages 1 2 Search

    If you are on page 2 you can't tell, it's still a link.

    2.  No OP designation next to the OP's name.

    1. has already been mentioned and we'll fix that up tomorrow.

    2. good spot, we'll get that back in there.

    I've been a long time member of this website and I do not like this new layout. It's reminding me a lot of onrpg.com for some odd reason and it lacks the creativity as when the previous layout was created. I'm sorry Admin and Meddle. Love you guys yo, but I don't like it. I can get used to it, but I don't care for this gray. This site always had a real taste for the color black and I liked that. I am half asleep too.

    But you know I 'd have to get used to it if this is not going to change. It's not a problem. I been though the worst phase during the times here. When everyone logged on and the place was filled with pink. HORROR and then it was like the whole forums was gonna be controled by a female. Everyone shuttered. Memories.

     

    EDIT

    Yo I'm happy yall finally fixed the PM feature, by doing it from a person's profile.

    Posting agian since my first post of this was overlooked!

     

    The Alphabetical Games Forums on the left you can open/close are massive and its difficult to find and switch forums quickly. Is it possible to add a personalized tab above the A-C that we can populate ourselves with our own favorite or most frequently visited MMO forums?

  • DameonkDameonk Member UncommonPosts: 1,914

    It would be nice to have a "Will not play" or "Not interested" option in the Game list for our profiles.

    Take a moment to read the rest of the thread dude, you will be appeased in your quest for darkness soon!  Anyone remember the last time we redesigned the site?  I believe we received death threats over that one LOL

    The user games feature was meant to promote positivity not negativity.  We may consider adding a comments field to the games record you could add a brief comment to.  Now there is a new user review system in the pipeline that if you have played the game and can be constructive in your review and position on the game you'll have an outlet there to get your opinion about a game known, but each user game review will be held to a higher standard than our ratings system currently.

    That is a good suggestion Evan and I discussed and will probably do.  We'll also be adding a listing of popular forums by activity in the space as well.

    Excellent, thank you very much!  Now I'll stop bugging you and let you get back to working on the site, and getting a black theme finished!

    I understand, although, I did not mean it as something negative against any certain game.  Just personal lack of interest per user. 

    No big deal.  Thanks for the quick replies.

    When reading a multi-page thread I can't seem to see what page I am on.     The available page numbers are all the same and I see no "next" button.

    You will see this fixed up tomorrow.  It's been a long day / evening for us rolling the site over and we're off to get some sleep.  It'll be fixed up soon.

    You need to put as much effort in revamping the moderation on this site and your customer service. I have been waiting for five days now and still have not received a reply from my inquiry to community@mmorpg.com.
