New Site

[Serenity]

Well personaly I would have gone with vBullitin myself on theforum basis... I once offered the use of a fully purchased copy all that need paying was the update/tech sup annual subscription. As to the other stuff time to go poke him in the side and wake him up to the situation...

I can understand that perhaps the forums were being hacked or abused or whatever and needed to be replaced, but surely that doesn\'t require bulldozing everything good as well.

Agreed

Obviously we all to some degree know each other so instead of beating around the bush; I\'ll be straight forward.

The new layout sucks. Or an analogy, fuck vista I like xp. Seriouslly, I know we are basically migrating from phpNuke (or what have you) to Joomla/Mambo. So you wanted a more professional looking site. ITS A FUCKING 411 SITE FOR NODEKA, and if recent \'who\'s isn\'t enough, there are about 60 of us.

I hate making a list but since it seems we will never go back; here I go.
NOTE: If there is any chance of us going back, please dont read or make any of these changes (just revert).

1. This is a column, you can see the boarder, you know it isnt part of anything else.
2. This is a section within 1, it has a style for its name SO YOU CAN FUCKING TELL WHAT IT IS.
3. Here is some interesting shit that doesnt blend with everything.
4444444444444. This is a WIDE content box, it can show shit at a wide scale, NOTICE how each 4 has a style which allows you to see when a new one starts?
5555555555555. Holy fucking shit, detailed info about 4 and within 4, NO CONFUSION HERE ON WHAT BELONGS TO WHAT.
1-5. YOU CAN FUCKING TELL WHAT IS GOING ON.

ENJOY

On the subject of the ranks system on 411, before its moved over I do believe it needs to be fixed.
I would love to know how one minute I can be ahead of someone who has not been in game since last November and then next time I go look that person is above me in the ranks... too me there is no logical explanation for this.

Cehotec basically has it. While this site has some hip grays and blacks, the old one was much easier to read and navigate. I'm not just saying this because I got used to the old one - the text and overall content, in general, is harder to read and navigate now than it was before.

Porting over before full new site functionality wasn't the best idea either.

Now, don't get me wrong - aesthetically, this site is very pleasing and n411 remains a fantastic resource for nodeka players and I really appreciate all the work that you've put into the site. But can we please just go back to the old one, at least for now, while you work on addressing some of the complaints?

I mean, come on - do we really need the "pdf, print, e-mail link to a friend" buttons on each post? That's just silly.

On a side note, this "quick reply" thing is neat.

Work is under way to make your dreams come true... and that is all I am going to say on the subject.
