Server Issues, Etc

[Thorne]

Well said Arria. Well said indeed.

How child like to complain about a free sites color scheme.

There's a big difference between complaining and making suggestions. As you say, it's a free site and they can do whatever they want. I've said the same thing in the past about other changes.

That doesn't mean we can't make our feelings known, and make suggestions which we feel might improve the site. They don't have to accept them, but it doesn't hurt to hear them.

Now, whining about it repeatedly would be childish. For my part, I've had my say. That's all there is to it. Unless they ask my opinion, I'm through with commenting on it. But if they make other cosmetic changes, I'll make my feelings known about them, too, either positive or negative.

[davesmistress]

I'm Loving it...

[Warbaby1943]

I hate it because it is hard on the eyes. But I'm sure no matter what the reason it won't matter in the least.

[good_girl]

the change has brought a lot of other addons which I don't recall being available before (or if they were, they were not so obvious).

I like the new layout and ya, I see things here that I may have overlooked before so I'm happy

My only complaint is that I used to have an insticntive feel for where all the buttons were and now its all changed I have to learn it all again...

seems like they changed the rules on you again LOL


I find the color a bit hard on my eyes to...but that may just be a good thing...I spend way too much time here as it is I do like the look though...much more dungeon like than powder blue

[caligirl{Rob}]

I have the utmost respect and yes it is a free site, but many of us do support the sponsors, and somehow voicing an opinion or dislike for something, or questioning if something that was there and is gone will return is "whining" I think the varied membership makes this site the success that it is. I don't think very many if any need to reminded of the sites status as free, and I believe that for the most part opinions stated are meant as that to offer up an opinion...I hope that as this wonderful site continues to grow and thrive no one feels stifiled to believe that to offer a suggest or voice dislike, I strongly believe it is a strong aspect of the success here...the willingness of the Administrators to have an open ear...

crosses arms and puts on best pouty face.........So there! lmao (smiles sweetly at the two T's!)

I am still waiting for the day on which I will try to log in and find a blank page with a little message: "Dear User, due to all the whining we decided to let you go ahead and re-create the forum as you like it best, have fun".

I´d like to remind some people on here that this forum is FREE and its admins should not be treated like paid personnel who owe you a favour or must do everything according to your liking.

delia and T, thanks for the good work, keep it up.

And yeah, I hate the new layout, but I think I can get used to it, as I did before.

*grins*

Well said in spite of the pout. LOL

[Ozme52]

LOL. Go to the archives and this conversation is fully repeated... not once but multiple times just since I've been here.

I didn't like the last version.
Loved the one prior to that.
Indifferent to the one before that one.

This one rocks.

May I be the first to say I despise the next version of the board?

Yah, well you can't get more than three people to decide on when and where to have lunch, much less on a major change like this.

But someone has to steer the boat, folks, and that person gets to decide where the boat goes.

Thanks to all involved for all the hard work and changes!

Including my name change. It's more appropriate now. And descriptive.

[gagged_Louise]

I really like the contrast between the broad red bands and the black/charcoal background (soft black, not hard dead black). It feels easy to read and somehow in style, so off the cuff I have no trouble with this change.

[thrall]

Hello...

I cant find it.......

There used to be a "members list' button in the top tool bar...and i cant find it anymore.....

hey that rhymes......lol...

Is it somewhere else that im not looking????

[MitchC]

Thrall, go to the top of the task bar, and click where it says main. In the far left hand corner, there will be a box that says "Site Navigation" . Scroll down, and it's about halfway down.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, I was wondering about that too.

[MitchC]

You're welcome, Warbaby. It took me a bit to figure it out last night, but I finally did.

Wow lmao I can't believe all the complaints *shakes head*

Suck it up or move on - we all know you won't so why hassle the Admins with complaints and petty whines about such insignificant things.

Can you still post?
Can you still read?
Can you still get information and ask questions to learn?
Can you still log on and meet with like-minded friends in a community?
Can you still get it all for FREE?

Sheesh, if all one has to bitch about in life is the colour of the site background, then I'd count myself as damn'd lucky!

Now, conversely - yes cali is right, if the board doesn't want suggestions, take down the suggestion box (however, I don't see any suggestions, just complaints and criticism)

I think it's a slick layout and change is good for the soul!!

As everyone else; just my two cents

Then count yourself lucky and allow others to have their opinions as well. All the questions you ask mean nothing if you aren't enjoying your time no matter where you are.

[angelic.zest]

i like the change, i love the red against the black, the new features are awesome, hopefully we can get the blog section up and running but i will be patient lol..

as long as i can read the text, click on the links im good with the changes...*shrugs*

[caligirl{Rob}]

perhaps the rest should disappear and leave the like-minded...have seen those with dissenting opinions on anything dismissed as whining, when we've simply said we disagree without attacking...............goes away

Okay, I followed the link and reread what we were saying back in January. I was surprised to notice that I was not too happy with the change from a dark background to a light one! (Honestly, I don't remember that. Was it dark before?) Consequently, I'm going to have to withdraw my objections and state that "Yes, I do like it." Or at least I apparently did last year.

I will have to find a way to chastise myself, I suppose.

Btw didn't Abe Lincoln say "You can fool some of the people all the time..." etc? Though that also implies that you can play down to and please some of them as well....

But you have to want to though don't you.
