So this is the new system.  A little different, but still the same.  Personally I think it's great!  Way cleaner, the forum is actually part of the website now, the color scheme fits with everything else! (that was a big pet peeve of mine with the last version)  I'm lovin it.

Looks awesome, HISHE - and it'll be fun to use the new gui.  Congrats on yet another milestone!

Hey, lookin good!

It's going to take some getting used to, but I think it's awesome on the whole.  Now if I can fix my signature  

Daniel's picture

signatures are in your profile.  click My Account at the top right and then Edit.  Text only for now i'm afraid.  I have to find out what kind of file size limit we can have before we open it up to custom banners.

I like the color scheme, I love 2.0 I have to admit though, I'm too fond of the new forum set-up however. This will take a lot of time getting used to, mostly because there is so much more! It feels almost to complicated. Since this is my first post on 2.0  I hope I am doing it right.

Hey, Cap can you tell us what's new? What were concious choices & what are side effects? Anymore tweaking on the cards? I notice I can't see comments until I am logged in & I don't appear to be able to make new posts - but that could be me as my laptop has exploded (again) and I am having to use my PS3 or my mobile to check out the site.

I like that we can now use some HTML, but still no strikethrough text! No underline either, or horizontal lines or images! But on the plus side, we do get to do some definition lists now!

Only being able to see the original post when replying is goin to take a little getting used to

Nice! Looks good. I like that it connects to the rest of the site. I can't wait to get to know it better. The buddy option seems interesting. -CitizenBuck

I can't post new forum topics. did i get in trouble? -CitizenBuck

Daniel's picture

no.  where were you trying to post?

citizenbuck's picture

The usual... The Lobby and forgotten films -CitizenBuck

I can't post anywhere! also the Icon(you know icon.ico whatever?)is some weird drop of water with eyes

Death_n_Taxes's picture

i can't delete my posts anymore!i seriously wanted to delete this one 2 minutes after i posted it, but i dont know how.... :P 

Daniel's picture

ok. it's probably a permissions thing.  I'll try to sort it out.  it has nothing to do with people being singled out.

citizenbuck's picture

Fixed. I can start topics now. -CitizenBuck

Bliss's picture

The new forum looks to me as if it's missing a TON of stuff, correct me if i'm wrong, or if it will still be going through changes but it looks like there are no more smileys, no more text colors, no more locations, search feature, memberlist, total users online, post counts, the green signals for new posts and apparently URLS...

citizenbuck's picture

I'm slightly relieved that i can't find the post count thing. I'm slightly bummed that I can't find a search option. I'm really ashamed to admit that i can't figure out the url thing. I really have no feelings about the smileys thing. -CitizenBuck

isaac5's picture

yeah, the post count thing... mixed emotions, but I love the reply feature!!

Bliss's picture

Are we going to get the hishe store back soon, or did you have to stop it when you got the partnership with Starz?

Tina's picture

The store will be back eventually.  It was just easier to take down as we re-grouped.

Tina's picture

Hey guys! I think there will definitely still be tweaks.  Some things we will have to get used to.  Hang in there and we'll get the forum figured out.  It was a BEAST to move over...definitely the hardest part.  We're just happy that most of the old posts weren't lost in the process, which took a lot of work.  Anyway, we will try to figure it out and post here as we learn things. Also, I think I will avoid bringing back post counts.  Ha!

citizenbuck's picture

you know what... it is nothing short of amazing that none of the comments were lost (and that i got to keep my avatar and signature). I'm impressed. And if i sounded negative about the search and posting new topics things I truly apologize... seriously wanted only to give a head's up. (url was just an admission of my own stupidity). didn't mean to sound ungrateful. personally i love the new set up (yay no post counter... now i can enjoy all of animals posts with out feeling slightly competitive of him). but as i said in the scifi reimagination thread... I'm becoming rude(r) these days. What's that about? from now on I'm going to say 2 nice things for every negative comment. -CitizenBuck

Tina's picture

Oh, I didn't think you were being ungrateful at all!  We're actually really glad you pointed out the posting new topics thing and I would also like to have a search feature.  I'm still getting used to it too.  Hopefully we can post a tutorial thread that will help everyone out.  And in regards to the scifi thread - I like your sharp wit CitizenBuck; I don't think you are rude at all! :)  Although I do think it would be fun to hear what nice things you force yourself to say.  Especially when we get a good batch of bad movies or t.v. shows.

isaac5's picture

well the weird thing is my entire "senor handy" topic is gone :-(

ness's picture

 like the layout, wish it was still all blue and the text was a bigger too but I'll get used to it. Also I'm not sure if I miss the post count or not, the higher the count the more people know how long you been here but on the other land it takes the competition away. One more thing what does the buddy list do?

Bliss's picture

Please tell me you guys can at least add some type of signal like previously with the green symbol altering that there is a new post, it's more tiresome to actually have to think! I don't like thinking about time and numbers, I want to see somthing that shows exactly where the most recent post is!Also, the newest post first is getting annoying because if someone replies to one specific post it takes a while to find the exact post.

animal's picture

I believe that the Alerts are still here; now, instead of being green, they are Yellow vs. White for unreplied threads.

Ronin's picture

That is in fact the case.  And it also tells you how many new messages there are under the total post count.Looks like the paragraph divide problem is fixed too. NickelCrew.net

Jamesbloke's picture

Cool - HTML editing, yay!If you disable the rich text & know your html, you can do other fancy stuff too.  Like striking through text even though it's not an option yet, or adding a picture, yay! I think/hope this shows the new forum is a work in progress & that Daniel & co are doing the best they can to improve the forum. Not sure if there is a Drupal module for forum voting to save the Fight forum....  Transcending the Arse of Reason in time for last orders
