What a long week it has been without the forums, right?!
We cannot even begin to express just how thrilled we are to bring you this new forum experience, and we hope that you grow to love it just as much as we do. This is our new home, so let’s make it as awesome as possible.
If you caught my brief note about the forums yesterday, you’ll recall that we got this iteration of the forums out to you as fast as we could, but moving so quickly will more than likely cause a few quirks. This is where we need your help.
If there are features you feel are missing, or if you notice a bug in the software, please let us know in the Forum Feedback section. It will be absolutely critical to aid us in making this place the best home it can be for everyone.
Alright, I’ve rambled on long enough. Get to posting like you always have, and enjoy the new forums.
So, this very snazzy and everything, but… there’s so much black… it’s like random lines and words floating around in a sea of black… any way to change the background colors of other people’s posts? The temporary highlight feature is… temporary, I’d like to use something more permanent. Didn’t see anything like that in the profile options
I like the new look of the forums. I also like how the new Preview Sidebar shows what you’re typing so you can instantly see what it looks like, instead of having to constantly click a Preview button. Keep it up! Very nicely done!
At the moment, when I click on a section (for example off-topic) I think it is a bit difficult to see what I am actually looking at: a bunch of topics or a bunch of posts within a certain topic. Pages overall look very similar to me.
Some posts have a color and that really helps me make the distinction what I am actually looking at (posts within a thread or a list of threads).
No big deal but maybe I have to adjust some settings to make some visual improvements to the layout.
Maybe try commenting a bit more and/or doing some profile edits. I was able to post a pic in a thread after 30 min, but I spent that 30 min posting and profile editing
it would be nice to have some sort of easier way to quote someone, and to differentiate the posts like the old way where the top posts that remained at the top of the list highlighted since they were important or started from you guys at IG / MS. I like this new forum but some tweaks and visual cues are required for ease of use and less confusion. Thanks
