Don't like the Upgrade at all

[Dot Com]

I already figured it out, which is why I know I will not get used to it without major changes behind the scenes.

What do you mean by "major changes" old man?

 

[Quantum Windbag]

Yes, but now they'll have to do it in public instead of being foul in private. I see that as a plus.

Why is it a plus?

 

[Quantum Windbag]

This is bad ass.. loving it.
This is a 2x2 table with four media links.

[TBODY] [/TBODY]

No it isn't.

There is no scroll inside the posts, so all anyone will see is two media links.

Click "quote" at the bottom of the post, then go to "reply" at the bottom of the page.


My take on this board:

I'd like it were it not for that ridiculously wide low-info right-hand column thing. Can it be reduced by 50% or more?

More space for posts, less space devoted to dead air.

Thanks.

If you just click reply it will automatically quote the post, which means you have to edit your post if you want to reply without the quote.

This board does not have a Dislike button.

If you think it does, point it out and I'll buy you Supporter status for a year.

Still see no fewer opportunities to be rude.

 

[Quantum Windbag]

"Disliking" something is not rudeness (and it's disagree, not dislike, still not rudeness).

Rudeness is more like your last sentence.

Never claimed to be civil, did I? Unlike you, I am honest about my feelings.

Turn off all the fucking shit that makes this site attractive to children.

Any other questions?

Since we're complaining, I'll lodge one myself.

One thing this software doesn't have that I miss from IP.Board sites is the ability to ignore a person's signature. I don't mean all signatures, I mean being able to turn off one person's signature so you personally don't see it (but it doesn't stop anybody else from seeing it).

That is an awesome feature that I wish CK would try to get ported over.

Gotta click quote, then click reply.

Just practicing what you said.

Yeah. What about "get off my lawn!" ?

You don't have to click quote, then reply. Just click Reply.

+Quote is if you want to quote more than one post. You click +Quote on the first post (and posts after that you want to quote), then Reply (but not +Quote) on the last post.

More practice.

Eh?

 

[LadyGunSlinger]

Take the rep but this new format sucks ass. I don't like it at all. The Politics section is majorly confusing.

 

[Pogo]

Eh?

Just mocking the grumpy old man.

Well....I just went over to another political board I post at from time to time...mostly just another eye candy thread titled differently...but I gotta admit that I love the format over there more than this one. The color is soft blues and grays..so soothing. And it stretches all across the page like the old forum here did. And it is so user friendly. And it is fast. Only problem is...Staff. They are so damn strict. I still haven't figured out what they expect. But the board itself? Awesome.

Sigh.

 

[Roudy]

It'll take some time to get used to, but it's still basically the same - a message board.

It's not that complicated to figure out.

I disagree, it's become a social networking site like Facebook with likes and dislikes. The content section now is nothing like the subscribed thread we had before. The user CP was one of the best things I liked about this board, and nobody else came close. I understand the demographic they were going after win these changes, the younger Twitter / Facebook / Instagram types, but that category isn't really interested in spending time in a news board type environment. I don't know enough to have a valid opinion of whether this big risk of "out with the old" members and "in with the new" younger crowd is going to work.

If you just click reply it will automatically quote the post, which means you have to edit your post if you want to reply without the quote. Wrong... wrong... wrong.

Wrong... wrong... wrong.
Have you ever been right about anything?

You're just an ignorant jerk who thinks he knows everything... but really you don't know shit.
