patriot 7,197 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Odd, but it may grow on me. No Sir....I didn't like it. Edited September 27, 2011 by patriot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lbsrdi 1,078 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 So I guess the +1,-1, is gone. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paulyski 2,227 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Well, My avatar is cropped to cut my business name out of my logo Not to mention it's much smaller & all my hot-links just turned to shit, so i guess I'd have to say it sucks ass that it's going to cost me time, which is money, to get everything back like it should be if I can do it at all. Hopefully the bugs will get worked out so I don't have to go back & edit stuff to get it looking & working right. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mullet Man 2,114 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Wonder if we could get someone to clean up all the old outdated and useless sticky threads in all the forums. That would be nice! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fanaticalbucsfan 15 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I am not sure if it will grow on me but I do not like this layout at all! Do our opinions count for anything? Why was it changed anyway, the old format seemed just fine... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YOT 3,743 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 This should be in the General Discussion section. That said, I like it. I like that the -1 is gone. Neg bombing sucks and was contagious. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SaigaKen 338 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 No sir.....I dont like it at all (except when you view my profile my slideshow appears...but other than that is kinda sucks....I know someone worked hard on this so sorry for the negative response) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

vulcan16 971 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 what does everyone think of the new layout? i liked the old one better. Man ...I'm glad that you mention the forum had a new layout. For a minute there I thought the acid I dropped back in the early 80's had come back to haunt me. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BigShots 0 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I was wondering what happened. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6500rpm 670 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I'm thinking it's still in transition, but more important is the possibility that the change may be an indication Max is doing better and feels up to messing with the forum. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 As someone who weathered the occasional senseless "neg bombing" and built up a good rep regardless, I prefer the old system. I also don't appreciate having my avatar downsized to a pathetic thumbnail. Ya don't "fix" what ain't broke. I'm not a fan of the new software. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 ... the change may be an indication Max is doing better and feels up to messing with the forum. That's a possibility, and I of course hope Max is on the mend. Still don't like this new software, at least not yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DogMan 2,343 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I didn't like the old one when it was new but it grew on me pretty fast. I think it's like rearranging the furniture. It feels strange at first but you just have to stub your toe on the coffee table a couple times and learn where everything is at and it becomes second nature. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully the bugs will get worked out so I don't have to go back & edit stuff to get it looking & working right. What hot links are you reffering to? Could you show me an example or a post where it does not work? Those seem to now work. I checked some ads & a recent post that I did reviewing CSS's performance puc (I like to hot-link to products I'm speaking of) & they had turned to text. They're now back to normal. Avatar just went back to displaying my business name, on my profile, but doesn't seem to have on the forum posts. Thanks. Hopefully all the bugs will be worked out in a couple days. I'll wait to change things until changes calm down. Sorry to come off as perturbed, Upon initial inspection it looked like I had a lot of work to do. I do like the new absence of ability for trolls to neg bomb. Good move IMHO. When people abused that feature it could lead to members thinking the person was untrustworthy to do business with which would be unfortunate if the poster had been neg-bombed by people with simply differing political views which was usually the case. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SaigaKen 338 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) My issue isnt really with the functionality....its the appearance of the old that I prefer Although it was nice to just place the cursor over the topic in the WTB section and be able to read without opening Edited September 27, 2011 by Saiga Power Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 So Max.. is the avatar size going to be "tuned", (restored to the way it was, or close)? Take a look at yours.. it now makes no sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flashpoint08 0 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 As someone who weathered the occasional senseless "neg bombing" seems this has happened to me, I honestly have no clue why I have a -2 rep. So the rating systems completely gone? I'm wondering if I'll be stuck with -2 rating forever? Other than that I don't mind the new layout too bad, although I can't figure out how to change my avatar that's kinda weird. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
