Update Discussion Thread

[Cuguy]

few things

sub only shop is active with the ability to buy and style new user titles

also, i halved all prices for things in the sub only shop.

additionally, for now, I have turned off the notifications for the like/dislike

[-Kwesnoth-]

The usertitle style is not working.

Just tried testing it, but it stays at plain text.

EDIT/ NVM its working

[MedicDog]

When I click Sub Shop, nothing happens, also when I click buy on anything in the regular shop nothing happens D:

[-Kwesnoth-]

The prices are steep, 20k it cost me to get the user title, and way to style it.

[Jaeger]

I'm not liking the size of the icons at all. They're way too big and clunky, we'll be able to get 2 or 3 on a line at any given time meaning the userbits will get clogged up. Why change it from the original 25x25?

[-Kwesnoth-]

Yeah, I personally liked the 25x25 icons.

But it is most likely having to do with the plugin.

[Rapture]

I think 30x30 would be a reasonable size. 25x25 is a bit of an eye-sore on most modern day monitors.

Also, I don't have enough points for a custom user title. D: Concealed begging.

[-Kwesnoth-]

I think Cuguy is going to lower the price, at least I think he is. 10k sp is very high for subs.

[GhostFox61]

Any chance with the new update of making it so that I can click announcements to read them?

That was broken ages ago.

[F34R]

25 x 25 was a good size before.

[Tutankhamun]

I think this update is horrible, sorry but I really do. What's the point of allowing people to chose different color, font and size of their name? Just makes things ugly, in my opinion, would very much appreciate a way to chose to have it display "flat" usernames.

Don't like the Facebook-ification of the forum either, don't see a single point of being able to thank, like or dislike a post. Don't care for the chat thing, but it seems strange to make a place where people will post instead of the forum but whatever.

Don't want to sound negative but it feels like toy features to me.

[Tutankhamun]

There's just too much crap everywhere, the items are huge and I do not care what other people have in their items sorry but I really don't care. Give me a vanilla experience any day over this.

I just get confused by this, makes me not want to post instead of posting.

I agree with you to a point, but I think the complaining should cease until its actually complete.

[manutdfan]

The update sucks a golf ball through a garden hose..

[Ghost-Rhayne]

I like the new chat box! I like the user name options too. I have no opinion on the like/dislike buttons, but think it's ugly to see what items people have.

[Tutankhamun]

I don't agree, if it isn't complete (I thought it was) feedback is even more important because it helps to tune things.

[-Kwesnoth-]

Sort of, this might just be the main stuff, and it still needs refining, and cleaning up before its completed.

[Thorzilla]

Oh gawd, my eyes!!! Such awful icons. Not only are they huge but they are horribly scaled. They're so stretched...goodbye cleanliness, hello tackiness...

It's not for long, trust me.

You know something we don't

[VintageElise]

I hate them and I'm getting them changed. I'll just bitch and moan to Cu.

I know lots of stuff that you don't know. Admin see?

Classic.

Get the 25x25 back plzz, cause those were perfect.

I know that this has already been mentioned, but it seems to have fallen into the background of the conversation: We need to make a decision regarding how we want to allow users to approve or disapprove of a post. Right now, we have three ways:

- Liking / Disliking a post
- Thanking a post
- Giving reputation points

All three are essentially the same, although thanking means that "reputation power" essentially is done away with altogether. Liking and disliking post is probably the most comprehensive, because it gives users a harmless way to like or dislike something somebody said. Thanking, well, it's unnecessary.

If at all possible, I think there should be a reputation button (so that reputation power still has some relevance) and the dislike button, so that users can disagree with a user without doing their reputation any real harm.

Seems like the best approach to me.

I feel the "Thank" option is the only unnecessary one. It's just a more specific aspect of liking something and I don't think it's needed.

The "Like" option allows people to show they simply like a post without having to quote it and say "This!" (I'm looking at you RadGamer). People also need to spread around their rep sometimes, and this gives us the ability to appreciate a post 100% of the time.

[Blacksite]

Personally, I think we should just stick to using the Reputation/Report system.
