The forums are being tinkered with

I'll use the nbsp thing. New font is better, because it's the same font I use for the rest of the site buttons.

What happened to the titles? Earlier today I was "arbiter" or something cool, now I'm back to "liturgist," which I remembered having a long, long time ago. What's the hierarchy now? Why the fuck are you so confusing, rEx?

 

[Sol Invictus]

Questions no one can answer.

Except, it goes by a color code - ranked from noob to pro:
Red (Illiterate - you only earn this for being a dimwit)
Green
Blue
Bronze
Silver
Oak
Gold

 

[DarkUnderlord]

They still look lame.

I'm a daltonist so I prefered the old titles. I'm pretty sure my Savant rank is yellow and some guys above me have a blue title, so I don't know what's going on with the hierarchy. Not that it's improtant.

Edit: oopsie, the colours have changed again. Now I have no idea which colour I have.

 

[Jed]

I can't tell if the color of my title is bronze, oak, or gold...

I like that I've been getting stupider every day for the last three days.

Don't worry, hanging around Volourn has that effect

 

[Sol Invictus]

You're both bronze. Role-Player is Silver.
Volourn is the only one with an Oak.

There is only one Gold one - Arcane.

 

[DarkUnderlord]

So what was wrong with the old titles again?

 

[Sol Invictus]

I didn't like them at all. That's good enough reason as any.

 

[Spazmo]

Yeah, because an entirely superficial piece of fluff feature that nobody was complaining about and that worked just fine should always be replaced with something that needlessly confuses everyone. It's just common sense.

 

[Psilon]

I think the real reason is to add more ranks before Volourn runs out of them.

It's evolution, baby!!

 

[Sol Invictus]

Hey Spazmo, why don't we go back to using SilverStyle for a forum layout then? Nobody complains about that either. Hell, why not get rid of all the graphics on the website, not to mention the PHP scripts, since nobody complained that we didn't have a game/people/company database before we implemented those either.

I'd imagine that there was probably someone like you living in a cave a long time ago when they came up with the invention of writing that said, "who the fuck needs writing? we were fine before we invented this crap and nobody complained. now everyone has to learn literacy. BAH"

Oddly enough, all of those features add new content and user features to the site. They're also all highly praised (well, except the graphics and forum style). They also haven't been replaced with a sub-par version.

 

[Sol Invictus]

Oh, don't sound so jealous, DarkUndies. Just because you don't have even a knack of talent to save your life, much less to work Photoshop or PSP to design the buttons on TA to make them actually fit the layout properly after you fucked up Monkey's web design doesn't mean you have to go all out and make up lies about the quality of the graphics on RPG Codex.

 

[Diogo Ribeiro]

Hey, new layout and buttons. Nice. Now the only thing missing is that icon_msnm.gif which feels out of place.

 

[Sol Invictus]

Fixed.

 

[Briosafreak]

Hey, new layout and buttons. Nice. Now the only thing missing is that icon_msnm.gif which feels out of place.

I agree in both accounts.

 

[Whipporowill]

Looking snazzy Rex, w d.

edit: but, uh. I get all the topmost forum buttons TWICE?

 

[Elwro]

I don't understand the purpose of those strange squares to the right of each button text. Can't we have plain "Send PM"? Are these to be any kind of moron indicators (I've noticed some of them have some symbols) or what?

I like the new buttons, if not for those squares.

edit: a minute has passed and now I like them, even if they have no sense.

edit2: is it my Opera, or is the ICQ button not done yet?

 

[Sol Invictus]

I'll get rid of the moron indicators at the top (because it makes it look messed up) and see how it looks.

 

[Sol Invictus]

ICQ Button is not done yet. Hold up.

p.s.

DINSDALE!!!!!!!!!!!!


edit: ICQ button is fixed.

edit: Should the moron indicators stay?
