Don't like the Upgrade at all

[Book of Jeremiah]

I will be praying for all bugs out. And a bigger box to preach in. Amen.

This is bad ass.. loving it.
This is a 2x2 table with four media links.

[TABLE="class: brtb_item_table"][TBODY][TR][TD][/TD][TD][/TD][/TR]
[TR][TD][/TD][TD][/TD][/TR][/TBODY][/TABLE]

Bad? Yes. Ass? Yes. Badass? No...just BAD and ASS! This is absolutely horrible.

 

[teapartysamurai]

why change it? It was nothing wrong with the board and now it just looks crazy


What was the purpose of the Upgrade??? Bulletin style was the best

I agree. This whole upgrade SUCKS! There was no need for it, and I HATE the results. Bring back the old forum AND BRING BACK OUR OLD SMILIES! The new ones are STUPID!

Very funny, McGhee. Let me try to find a smilie for you. Hold on. I think it looks like a grape. Grapes represent victory in the bible. Good night.

Grab the right side frame of your window. Move it to the left till all the stuff on the right moves to the bottom. Now there is nothing on the right except the messages, correct?

It's still a third of a screen wasted! (My window is full-screen.)

Took me about 15min to get used to this new board software. I like the new one better already.
Top ten reasons to like the new board.​

1. Supports ordered lists​
2. Full bb code support​
3. Support for drafts​
4. Supports file uploads​
5. Supports centering/justifying text​
6. Supports tables​
7. Supports spoilers​

I hate this shit. Half the fucking screen is fucking ads and bullshit. This picture threads look like postage stamps. Clearly the "new and improved," is a way for the owners to make more money, not to improve the users experience.

Sorry....it sucks.

how do you know "there was no need for it"?

 

[Jarlaxle]

Knee jerk reactions are a mistake. CK informed us all that there would be changes, and with changes (especially major ones) come bugs.

I'd suggest giving it some time to see how the site adjusts to the new software before rushing to judgment.

This isn't a bug...this is like replacing your old car and discovering that your wife brought home a neon-pink Yugo with lime green polka dots, bright-orange seats, and lavender shag carpet.

LOL! The visual is amazing in my imagination.

I agree...but I am not willing to leave usmb over it.

Because it's like replacing a Cadillac with a Yugo and then blaming the lack of options in the Yugo on "bugs." It's just doesn't convince.

Here's a penny, call someone who gives a rat fuck.

Then YOU drive the bloody thing! I want my Dakota (the old software) back!

EXACTLY! This bullshit that this is an improvement for us, is just that, bullshit! There is no improvement for us. Just a way to make money.

Meanwhile, we get the shaft, with a "new improved" sucky board, sucky smilies, and sucky appearance. I hate it, all around!

And I agree with you...but I hate bullshit.

Whenever you hear "a better user experience" be prepared to be screwed. Since I am not aware of anyone complaining about the old format (except some whining about rep) this is clearly about money...not about the users of this message board.

Maybe instead of the corporate bullshit about "enhancing your experience," just admit to the users it's a money issue. People are not stupid.

 

[Gracie]

So they want money. Who doesn't? CK said they had to patch alla time. Leaks in the hull, so to speak. What if hackers could get to all your pms or personal info? See what I mean?

I hate change too. I really really do. Hubby wanted to buy me a new digital camera and I said if he did, I would pee in his shoe. NO NEW GADGETRY. I hate it. But...I either deal with it or leave. And I ain't leavin'.

All I got to say is, I'm done for the night posting here. The damn thing seriously hurts my eyes. I'm not kidding. It's hurting my eyes so much, it's starting to bring on a migraine. No thanks! I don't need that!

This is a "user improvement?" BS! It's a money making improvement!
