It certainly looks more "designerly" but it's a bit too bright and I miss the colour coding for the consoles and the listing of everyone's consoles under their avatars. Also the quick links to specific pages of the thread both at the top and bottom were really useful.

I have a question while we're at it.

Will the feature that showed you that someone quoted you be back? (the red boxes in the previous site)

I really really liked it.


I second this. It was one of my favorite features.

Now that I've fiddled around with it for a couple of minutes I am starting to get used to it I guess.



HOLY CRAP! This site is very sexy now, me likes. I like how it says how many minutes ago a person made a post to a thread...really cool.

 

Edit: !!!!!! when you reply/edit, how the message box appears from the background....WOW. Nice job at whoever did this.



Some things I've noticed so far:

- There's not a forum hub in the front page like there was in VGC 2.0 where you could quickly swap between Sales, Gaming, Nintendo, Sony, etc. and this makes it really tedious to navigate between forum sections.

- The comments on the articles are gone and we can't add new ones anymore.

- There's no "Cancel" button when you edit your post.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Fullfilled Prophecies

also there is no jump to last page of thread button

there is no layout, ala posts per page customization

the "FORUMS" link on the front page does not work for me, getting to recent topics is a nightmare.

every other time i try pressing a link, it says something like syntax error.

navigation is a nightmare.

 

and omg it did it again, my entire posts are not being displayed after I hit the done button which should read "post"

2 sentences were lost, this was added through an edit, which reminds me, it no longer shows that posts were edited



̶3̶R̶D̶   2ND! Place has never been so sweet.

Yay, I can post now!

Just a question. What is that exclamation mark in the box next to "Welcome (insert username)"? Before, when I couldn't post, it was orange. Now it's grey.

Edit: where did my post go? O_o



I don't like the site.

1. The colours hurt my eyes. I do realize that some people like burning out their eyes early with white generated background :) I don't I do like the choice or dark backgrounds.

2. Theres a lot of wasted space in regards to threads margins and borders. When reading I prefer reading content sites with content not space.

3. The reply window while nifty could use some refining. Offer a save to edit later feature since it is it's own floating div. Make it dragable and put it more at the bottom of the browser. Also the tools could cut 2 lines. Theres plenty of space not being used again. It would be nice to be able to read prior posts. That's why the suggestion for moving the box. also remove the background gray out.

4. It feels sluggish, but I think that's been covered.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

am i posting right?



don't know how i just double posted <.< so lost right now
