I can change the userbox template. No worries.

Are you sure it won't grow it on you? I find the new layout more legible somehow.

The majority prefers the names above the avatars. I do too, partly because it has better usability.

Alright. Will do tomorrow.

Keep these bug reports piling on so there's something for me to fix tomorrow morning.

I won't, Twiglard can play with it if he likes, because it's really inconsequential overall, but to me the current positioning looks perfectly good. This obsession with every single line and comma having to look exactly as before as if any change, no matter how minor, must be avoided at all costs, is beyond unhealthy.

From a design POV, it looks better as it is now because there isn't a sandwich of text/graphic/text but graphic/text only. It's also slightly better from a usability POV. But I'm not going to waste my breath arguing in favour of leaving it as it is because it's not worth the effort.

With the new layout it's easier to find both the username and the avatar at a glance. Isn't this the case for you too?

Who cares, this forum is dead.
Everything that could have been discussed on the subject of RPGs has been discussed. All other discussions are just a way for people to come out as disappointments with their unapologetically stupid takes. Then take this experience and multiply it by 8 years of being here.

Done. I'm not getting rid of the online button just yet. But it's no longer acting as a ball gag.

Hahaha. Well now I'm going to be a complete and utter hypocrite and complain about the current form, which has the name, title, staff labels, etc. all piled on top and then the avatar pushed way down. Avatars now look weighted under a heavy burden of text. If the name must be on top, it should be only the name above, then the avatar, then the biographical info.
