@ vas-y, most people like the design, so those who don't are perfectly welcome to leave, there is no reason to change back. The development team has worked extremely hard on this, and instead of constructive criticism they are just saying how rubbish it is, and not thanking them for all their hard work

Actually some people like the new design, some are indifferent and many many outright hate it so you are wrong.  No one came out before and said I hate this white and blue so why change from someone everyone is okay with to something many hate?

Well, it's very natural for mankind to be against a change at the very beginning. We all know that every thing was better before bla bla. Just try getting used to it for at least two weeks and then you can complain again.

@ nordlead
I think it's very unprofessional to react like that. I know it's annoying to read comments like in this thread but hey, you're a moderator. Besides, there are also many positive reactions to the new design, so why not be happy about that?


Exactly what I wanted to say. This is a community. Admins should be trying to make people feel welcome.

Agreed. The recent change and the defensiveness of the moderation team is beginning to become just a bit uncomfortable.

oh, and there is a 2.0 FAQ thread that points out all the new features in the game DB

http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=73618

It will be upgraded later with more information.

It's grown on me. I definately think it's an improvement.

Hell, I can't even remember what the old VGChartz looks like :P

I could have said FU and banned them, but I have not. I simply said goodbye.

Essenstially I said in 1 word what I could have typed out in a whole paragraph. The old version will not be brought back because this was a major overhual. Making this thread is completely pointless and a waste of your time. If you really hate it that much (as indicated by this thread) then there is no reason to change as the website will not be reverted. The worst part is, that I can find people who say "bring back the old" and say they loved it, but I bet I can easily find posts by the same exact member who hated the blue when it was first introduced and they wanted the "old" site back.

so, I say it again, if you hate it enough, then just leave as we aren't changing to make 1 person happy who liked the blue. There will always be upgrades and changes, but this is here to stay until the next major overhall.

No one is talking about changing it back to the old, boring design for just one person. I simply don't like your way of dealing with unsatisfied users.

The site is good, I only have one or two little problems (grey on grey, urgh). Anyway, the site has been a general improvement, lot's of additional features and updates. It's good.

I see VGChartz has gone to the dark side

I like it we just need to get used to.. Only thing just give us a option for background color between Black and White.

There is plenty to like about the redesigned site, congrats to the designers. But please, please give us options for colors...my eyes hurt. I couldn't read the site yesterday past the front page. Color choices please!

This is VGC 2, it is bigger better and more badass, it has to be black, it is the dark and brooding part of the VGC trilogy, like Mass Effect 2
