Also, I just noticed that you can now click button ratings to see who gave them, but only when on peoples' profiles. Weird.

Insert Title Here RPG Wokedex Codex Year of the Donut I'm very into cock and ball torture
Funny fact, DU mentioned recently that most of the time he accesses the Codex these days, it's on mobile. I guess he's unwanted too now.

The idea is to make the forums usable for both desktop and mobile use. There is no reason not to make minor tweaks to improve the mobile experience when it can be done. Both platforms have their strengths and weaknesses, but preferring one over another is no reason to want to ignore the other when you know that a considerable number of people are using it. We don't have a separate mobile site, the forum style just works with mobiles as well.
Is this a joke? The new design is unusable on mobile. It's like an eye cage. It's no longer accessible on a phone unless you're 15 or younger. My eyes can't take this, nobody's can.

How can you stand there and say "the style works with mobiles" while knowing it's a lie? And the complete gall to say it's a problem with the user's monitor settings etc...

You either make a different mobile site, or just say upfront you no longer officially support accessing the site from a phone (call it "incline") because this "solution" right now is to make both the desktop and the mobile experience horrible.

I love how every time this happens on any forum the admin gets bitched at for a non paying job until they eventually quit the forum years later due to being tired of fucking with nonsense for ungrateful people. Granted Taluntain gets a little too uppity from time to time and this whole thing looks ugly and is not working properly but what it has been a day or two?

*sigh*

As mentioned several times in this thread, Twiglard edited the original style DU bought. His changes messed up mobile. He has yet to fix it. Barking up the wrong tree again.

I agree.

It’s annoying to the point where I didn’t
browse any threads today. It’s a chore to read now.

Officially, it's only been 14 hours. Site went live 1 am my time this morning (which is when the basic conversions were done enough that we could open with the bare minimum, after being closed for 12 hours) and it's just after 3 pm now.

I'd be ok if the Codex died now. I'm emotionally ready for it. The same way you'd be emotionally ready to pull the plug on a family member after he splits his face open with a self-inflicted shotgun blast.

Bruh, do you even know me? I joined because I wanted to talk about RPGs.

The fact that you looked at my 2016 join date and immediately assumed DRUMPF says a lot about you.

I made the reactions icon (brofist) clickable to make it consistent with the alerts button now.
This is not a good change. The less clicks the better.
Not only is an extra click required for any button rating, but also the list of button ratings was re-arranged substantially from what it had been but without any improvement in terms of grouping together related buttons.

Note that my copium rating was added after the :feelsgoodman: rating, which made sense, and they are still grouped together. However, some other pairs or larger groupings have been broken up, such as the creative and artistic ratings being consecutive or the animated doggy and kitty ratings being consecutive.

Some suggested groupings that make sense:

is the god of the Codex and should be either the first or last button ratings displayed, as should the venerable brofist.

I wish this redesign happened four years ago so I could come here and go, "wow this site looks really gay and ugly" and never register. I'd probably have ended up on Kiwifarms or something, hatewatching happily with other reprobates and talking about how twisted and senile DarksydePhil is while tracking his every hair follicle.

You robbed me of my best years.

How do I remove these? What's up with this shit? Design looks like it's from one of them news sites that reports on twitter drama... wait.

CTRL + to increase width and CTRL - to decrease width is standard in both Mozilla and Opera. So I would be very surprised if it didn't work for you. But of course it's easier to whine about the default not scaling to your level.

Bunch of crybabies, the site looks alright and I'm sure it will look great in a couple of weeks, just give it some time.
