bah..we are all guineapigs now

Sure, together with the complaints and notifications by us all the new theme will sooner or later be as good as the old one, or better, but how it was introduced now with many bugs is anything but professional.

I might see it different than most people.


Anyway, whats up now with the small and too bright fonts for the threadnames. Will that be changed?

For tab browsing can we remove "The Mugen Fighters Guild - " From them too? Before hand it ONLY showed the title name. Heck I still have the Updating Stickies thread opened in a tab from before the switch over :P

New report:

Unsolved/Solved icons are missing on the Help forums.

Threads that already had them keep them but you can't create a new "Unsolved" thread nor can you change the icon to "Solved".

Sorry if this has been asked but how do I disable the email notifications of topic replies?

I fixed it with this:


For some odd reason, whenever you reply you're automatically notified about threads.

In the quick reply box, go to "go advanced" for the long form and you'll see (well, normally, not anymore if it's been fixed) that the "notify me" was checked by default, so replying meant subscribing. Normally the Notifications page in the profile should let you unsubscribe, but other than that, in the topic itself, top right, it also says "you have subscribed to this topic, unsubscribe here" and that link does work.

... And I just tested, and the "Notify me of replies." is still checked by default anytime you answer a topic.
... And the "Unnotify" button in the "Notifications" page of the profile still does nothing.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

God knows we have to keep it professional here on this forum dedicated to a free fighting game engine. ::)

But I forget what you consider professional:
professional according to GBK: crayon drawings of MK characters

unprofessional according to GBK: experimental forum technology being created on the fly and tested out in a community of coders

  • Are you pondering what I'm pondering?
bah..we are all guineapigs now

(weeeeeeeeeeeek)

sorry, I couldnt resist.  I don't think there is anything wrong with us being guinea pigs in this case.  you probably do see things in a different way (being OLD and CRANKY!! ;)  ), try to look at it as helping someone out instead of being inconvenienced.

Well our bot detector is missing, will that come back?  I actually did check that thread every time I logged on and once in a while even zapped one


:bow:
I think so, but isn't Regis Philbin already married?

Well... this is new. It could be a bit darker, though.

When did this happen?

Yesterday. And it's already a lot darker than before. The "AUGH MY EYES" posts have stopped, at least, so I guess that's a good sign ;)

Collecting TODOs..

- Getting to unread replies is pretty annoying from the dropdown menu.
- Spoiler tags that have text in them (like say
Spoiler: this is a test (click to see content)
) don't work
- There's no button to insert spoilers
- also, does anyone else see a red triangle above the "p" in spoiler?
- (the "unnotify" option apparently does nothing at all even if I check the topic in the "Active topic subscriptions" list, it's still there) this works for me, I just removed a topic from that list on my profile :muh:
- board index layout problems ( http://i.imgur.com/EuR0j.jpg )
- board pagination doesn't work with filters in the release and wip forums
- show member names instead of display names somewhere in the membercard or thread view mouseover
- relics from the karma system
- previews don't work
- logo should link to main page fixed
- ages differ between membercard and full profile, example profile Koakuma
- problems with group_members template
- timestamps are off, for some reason fixed
- tagging doesn't work? @Nightwish: ok it's @@:
- recent activity page is SLOW
- put "unsolved" as default icon in help boards done
- bot detector page

Edit: Nope still there. :S

It works now, it did nothing this morning.
And apparently the "Notify me of replies." doesn't check itself by default anymore, it did a few minutes ago. I checked, then unchecked, and saved the "Turn notification on when you post or reply to a topic." in my options inbetween, it's all I did, but it wasn't checked in the first place... Well, it seems to be fixed now, so it's fine.

Ok, thanks for the report. Bug found and fixed (should be in one of the next updates).

I saw that when you are on your profile, exactly in "Summary", the logo is there, but when I go to "show stats", "show content" etcetera "The Mugen Fighter Guild" is written in black fonts.

I still don't like having so much pure white (#FFFFFF)

While the old layout had pure white, it was only for separating sections as topics and posts had that light-blue-ish color (#F0F4F7) as background.

Also, stickies should have their old color (#E8D8CF), I keep mistaking them with locked topics with that gray color.

And yeah, I'm too much of an aesthetics-fag.

My eyes thank you for finally changing the color scheme and getting the font to a readable level (of course, I may just have it at max, I dunno). Surprised how much I miss the preview image function, but it was really useful. More so than seeing the avatar of the OP of a thread when I can read it right under the thread title.

Dreams you never lived and scars never healed
In the darkness light will take you to the other side
And find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes.
If you just close your eyes.
If you just close your eyes.

Also if you hit mark all topics read when in the view new replies to my post it will mark all topics read even the ones in show unread post since last visit while it never use to do that.
