Oh God, What have we done?:eek:
 
Mostly everyone is a New Member and starless ... and "System Specs" link left of the post links to "forums/#" ... also "Likes Received" should be "Thanks Received"
Naw, they told us when the preview of new forum was up to try out that "Thanks" would change to "Like".
 
Its taken some adjustment to get used to, but it definitely feels smoother; like adding this post, double-clicking "new posts" doesn't lead to an 8 second waiting period. It feels more responsive overall. Good work.
 
I miss the starzzzz... anyway, will give it a spin and post some feedback.

For some reason, I couldn't sign in from the front page (or perhaps I typed the password incorrectly... three times?)

Oh no, I'm much more inclined to say thanks to someone than to like someone

Like a virgin! Touched for the very first time!

I just imagined your avatar singing that song :D
 
No, we decided to change "likes" to "thanks" exactly for the reason @BiggieShady mentioned

We're using @ symbols for user referrals now? Not sure I like my forums trying to be like twitter xD

Where did muh avatar go? :O is it because I called you stupid?
 
ISSUES:
YouTube embeds are broken.
Links to replies outside of the thread they're from are broken(see my sig)
code is broken.
Post count is no longer accurate.

PREFERENCES:
Our stars are gone. Custom titles are still there, but everyone else is a "* member" How am I a "New Member?"
Maybe there could be a bit more contrast between the plain white background and the very light blue accents?
I don't like the "Like," "Follow," and @ tags. Since when is this Facebook/Twitter?

Edit: and how do I get this damn alert in the bottom left to stop popping up?

w1z imported the post db three times, so the counter is 3x to high, I assume.

Also, Currently Active Users Vievew This Thread says only me is watching it, but I'm pretty sure that's not true.

EDIT: And what do we do with the points we get? Gifts? :D
 
I don't know if it was asked yet but is there a section to change the layout a bit (colors, fonts, etc...

The light blue color and faded lines makes me feel like I'm at a Care Bears fan site
 
I liked the old forum style better. is there an option to revert back? because in there I don't have to scroll a lot just to visit different sections in the main forum page. everything fits on 1-2 pages.

This new style has lot of unused areas that makes pages unneccessary larger, I would understand if this is the format for iPads, Tablets, but seeing that I use a Desktop I would prefer the older design, I checked wayback machine and it was used since around 2006 the earliest I could see and i would like to have that streak going :)


ok ok.. been busy all day and when I check forum got a weird look... looks cool. but like lyndon said, is there a way to switch back to old style?

i prefer to that one.... I got used to it already. a change is ok but right now I prefer the old forum style...

Ive read thru all post, maybe I missed the how to change style...
 
I like the look of new forum. Will post anything that is broken. :)

Oh, thanks W1zz! I had it backwards! BTW, there is still a disconnect between having a Thanks on the right, but a "Likes Received" in our user box on the left.
 
Oh wow, just popped on and was surprised to see the new look, gonna take some getting used to, also why does it say new member under my user name?
 
Whats up with the spacing with the letter i, and why has my post count tripled lol.
