The migration/new board software thread

[SactoShark]

I like it. Good job. I'm sure a lot of work went in to it.
And thank you so much for keeping my best bud…

I like being able to see avatars in mobile view finally. It's how I remember most of us, honestly... never been good with names.

The constant pop ups at the bottom are really pissing me off though.

 

[DrFeelgood]

Not the biggest fan of it but it could be a lot worse. I ran some vBulletin boards way back in the day though, so it will always have a soft spot with me.

Psh, look at Slo hammering that "Like" button. Nobody likes a brown-noser

My favorite smilie is still here... So I'm happy. There are also some that I haven't noticed earlier...

Fortuitous time to rejoin the boards.

I'm sure everyone will adjust, but the graphics are a little amateurish. Reminds of the random ad-hoc hockey forums one will stumble into that has very little activity. Lacking polish...

I can dig it, needs a little customization.

So posting here where it can at least be documented.

BOH thread missing posts Monday-Wednesday.

Anyone know where the ignore thread button went to? I don't do fantasy hockey and tend to ignore those straight away when I see them pop up.

I miss posts/threads having lines like a grid. Not a fan of the bright white but I see a post earlier mentioning a way to change it with a link to instructions.

Thanks!

It looks a bit awkward and I don't like my profile hanging on the right like that. Also jumping forums is more difficult now since the drop down isn't on the bottom anymore. It is possible (check the icon on the right when you scroll up) but it's not intuitive.

I give it a C-. Why? Because there are improvements like embedded media updates and likes which were desperately needed. The old HF engine was awful, you had to tag videos with yt, remove a whole lot of crap to leave the id...stuff like that.

Click on the Username under avatar and there is an ignore link in the pop-up box.

Not trying to ignore the user, although I did figure that part out. On the old board there was a link to just ignore a thread specifically.

Definitely NOT digging this setup! The almost non-existent visual delineation of the actual content makes it almost impossible to read anything...

Need more grid!!

I do really like the like feature on posts. I've wanted one for quite a while.

There was one on the vBulletin site, but it was just disabled.

Click on the Avatar to the left of thread and a box will pop up.

 

[DrFeelgood]

Another complaint: Threads with multiple pages don't show those multiple pages until the thread is hovered. This is really annoying because I usually keep my cursor off the screen when i'm scrolling through stuff so I end up clicking on the parent rather than the last page.

 

[OffSydes]

They need to enable more themes, should help with a lot of the complaints

That is ignoring the user, not the thread. I hope they bring back the ignored threads feature soon.

oy. great that we got some modern features and all, but the threads don't look great. Its trying way too hard to be minimal and does not succeed. I dunno why forums and boards and what not always have a terrible UX. Its always just a cluttered mess, minimal or not.

 

[bigwillie]

Is there a way to disable images and/or avatars?
