Butthurt incoming.

I thought it was about the money that "got lost" during the kidney campaign.

New forum layout in progress. It won't stay this way.

Nobody asked for this.
At least, please, add an option to switch to the original layout.

 

[Cael]

Seriously, guys?

Nostalgia really isn't that great... :D

 

[praetor]

new layout is better

 

[Infinitron]

I'll move the hosted RPG forum back to the root until I figure out how to filter the sticky threads

 

[Haba]

Haba is now playing DEEP SPACE WAIFUS

Please make RPGCodex more like DEEP SPACE WAIFUS now

 

[Burning Bridges]

FFS

 

[Dawkinsfan69]

I like it! Bug though: Subforums that are ignored don't hide... Please for my sanity don't make me see gaming drama subforum holy shit

Also a ban of trump supporters would be nice

 

[V_K]

Not enough butthurt!

 

[Lazing Dirk]

Needs more Discord integration and click-through advertising.

 

[Haba]

Has anyone done a greasemonkey script yet to remove that crap?

 

[Zarniwoop]

At least the super annoying FRAUD WARNING is still there.

I just wouldn't be able to live with a fraud-free Codex.

Look who changed the forum index layout so that more than 7 people would be aware of Blackspace's existence.

Is that not the BLM version of Liberal Safe Space?

OK, that's good enough for now.

 

[conan_edw]

why wasn't it like this from the beginning?

I don't understand why people update forums when they are working fine.

 

[Bumvelcrow]

It's too cluttered - it hurts my eyes.

 

[Infinitron]

I don't understand why people update forums when they are working fine.

Check out the Expeditions: Viking thread to see some people who didn't think the forums were working fine

 

[Tweed]

BAD!!

Forums are working fine. Subforums are a punishment. They are great for ignoring crap you don't want to read about, like Bethesda games.

But for small indie games that have niche audience even at Codex? For the average person who is only mildly interested in the game, having to go into the subforum and then having to make a decision on which thread to open is already too much effort. There are a ton of interesting games to keep track of. You'll get better mileage just bumping the megathread to GRPGD page 1.

It is not a problem you'll be able to solve. If this was a commercial venture, I'd apply extensive thread tagging via automation, machine learning to figure out viewer preferences and then customizing the content in accordingly.

But on a hobby project you just have to compromise. Live with a few large forums that have megathreads and active thread turnover on page 1. Maybe instead of cramming everything on everyone's screen, highlight the new posts on forums people actually follow or something.
