I really don’t want to be negative like this, but every time SRK changes everything gets worse. Old “Blue Steel” SRK was the best, and I like to think that’s not just nostalgia talking.
Maybe a total wipe (no tricky migration to bother with) and a switch to a more orthodox forum software would be a good thing.
At least it’s quicker.
Yes the character forums for older games are FUBAR, I will fix them later tonight.
It could also just be that I’m a lazy fuck, but this new layout also requires more effort to use. I liked how before, if I posted in a thread it would automatically watch the thread for me. Now I have to click a star that’s almost smaller than my mouse cursor to watch it. And the recently active feature is it’s own clusterfuck of a page.
So I’m finally browsing from myt home computer for a minute and wow this is not easy on the eyes.
Also when a post is quoted have we lost the ability to click on the quote and be automatically directed to the post it’s from?
how do i set a sig
It is a lot faster, and could probably be better than the old forum with some layout and aesthetic changes.
Practically every font in the new site layout is fucking obnoxious, and since this is my first post, I just realized how incredibly obnoxious the text is in the reply box. Its a combination of font size, possible bold? I cant tell since it’s so big, and an unorthodox font type on pretty much everything, including the topics. Arial or something else standard, please. The view and reply counts are also unnecessarily huge.
And the actual blue colour(s) used across the forum, on topic headers and embedded in the clickable links and tools throughout the forum is very light, and is also kinda hard on the eyes. Blue on white can make sense, but it should be quite a bit darker than it is currently.
For me the choice of the blue text just hurts my eyes and also how everything is layed out
What the heck? Where did my watched thread list go? Change is bad, boo.
Damn, every dramatic change, this shit just get uglier and less friendly.
You know what SRK could do that would alleviate all of the issues people have with these different forum systems?
SRK could go back to vBulletin.
You know what SRK could do to follow Kineda’s relatively generic-ass design?
SRK could go back to vBulletin.
You know what SRK could do to make sure that all pages, forums, features, and designs work?
SRK could go back to vBulletin.
Did you know you could have embedded ads in vBulletin forums?
Did you know you could have those fancy AJAX-y, Web9.0 animations on vBulletin?
Did you know that most of SRK’s life was spent on vBulletin?
Did you know that more people complained about SRK since the Xenforo change than during all of vBulletin’s run?
GO BACK TO vBULLETIN. FOR SRS. FOR SRK.
i dont get why tapatalk isn’t integrated in the system when it’s easy to install and supports vanilla forums -_-
How do we leave feedback in this new layout?

You’re doing it, sunshine.
You know what’s odd. I have a 16:9 monitor and I can usually drag the window so that it takes up half the screen and browse just fine. This new layout does not resize to fit the window so the ends of lines of text are cut off.

Sunshine, I’m talking about for the Trading Outlet.
Can somebody who has actually spent more than 3 seconds thinking about how the fuck the colors on a website should work please take over the design of this shit fest?
lol wait i just realized you guys paid for this shit fest?

WE HAVE A TRADING OUTLET!? Kidding, kidding.
Until such time as it is added in with some sort of silly little hack, there is no feedback. Not anywhere that I can see, at least.
I really dislike how there’s so much white space with tiny text and avatars.
