Better, than the test site, blander than the past.

what amounts to so little actual change

lol

 

[Darth Roxor]

It's honestly worse than kindergarten. Twiglard's gone to great lengths to basically strip the new layout of practically all the meaningful changes

Maybe because the meaningful changes were all garbage?

I said it many times before that the initial iteration of the new theme was terrible, and Twiglard has done a titanic job to have hammered it into a shape that is actually usable - to me it's still an aesthetic downgrade overall, but I can see myself getting used to it in the long run, albeit reluctantly.

You really like throwing the autism around, but methinks one has to be truly autistic to consider this swap a 'nothingburger'.

 

[Eisen]

This layout is terrible, thank you

 

[FreeKaner]

I don't think returning to old style is necessary but removing the overall clutter definitely is one. Especially the right-hand side of the posts and the borders around and background of ratings and numbers of such.

Font is really heavily antialiased or "blurry", feels weird to read after a while.

 

[racofer]

This new font is really, really hard on the eyes. The contrast is terrible with the background, way harder to read than before.

This is the main culprit of why it looks so bad.

Not just a moan, but intended as serious feedback: it's broken on mobile. Half the screen is taken up with the bar at the top, because some image link is broken.

Yeah, never had any problems before. But the site is really hard on the eyes now. The alert section, trying to find and read thing noticeable strained my eyes.

I need a drink to drown my sorrow. Fuck this shit.

 

[ADULF HITLOR FAN KLUB]

Siganatures are UNLOCKED.

Epic.

 

[Mojobeard]

I thought the process of turning everything nice looking was further along. Looks like shit.

At least make the pinned threads different color already.

If you're able to look past the easily changed cosmetics and every small change, it's even less than that. But if every minute change induces a panic attack in your heart, then I believe it's a big deal, sure.

This is how the site looks with Dark Reader. Much better contrast and less eye sore:

 

[Zlaja]

I would hope it's not nearly finished, the mobile version is essentially unusable.

What will I do while taking a shit now?

Why was the site changed. Why?

Because not changing equals white supremacy.

Regarding the shoutbox would be nice to have thematic channels so who wants to actually nerd out have not to deal with Schitzos,Drunk,On drugs people spering out about everything else. You can keep the General chat for that.

More organization would be nice.

Yes, that's right. Does somebody have the RGB codex of the old font and background handy? I think the contrast was better before, but it would be good to check. Taluntain Twiglard do you know what changed between forum versions in terms of font and contrast?

 

[Alpan]

The effect of the "first change in 20 years" seems to have taken a large step in turning RPG Codex into yet another generic-looking 2020s forum. Sure, the forum will probably remain as appropriate as ever to discuss most things without fear of reprimand or trigger-happy banning. But in terms of visual identity I don't see how it's possible to argue this change doesn't turn RPG Codex into something cheap and mainstream. The place had 20 years to bitch about the dumbing down and streamlining of RPGs, and now it seems its own turn has come.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

Has anyone seen my monocle? It seems to have gotten lost during the transfer.

Also, everyone can see whether I'm online or not, despite the option being ticked off in my Preferences.

I think you are the next one to get banned.

All of the complaints here are serious feedback.
