Post by Tedlark »

Will take some getting used to. Waiting on my 20 year chip.

I admit I'm old and don't care much for change. But what I dislike the most is change for the sake of change.

The new site design is ok, I guess. But I don't see improvement. If someone can tell me or show me some aspects that are better, my opinion can be changed. But I don't see anything that looks like better right now.

On the other hand, I do see one thing that's gotten worse ... the graphics on this forum. Some of the posts are black font on a very dark background, almost impossible to see. Am I the only one?

No, you're not. I was going to post something about it when I saw your post - so I'll piggyback on yours.

What I have noticed, though, is that if I go on the site using either Microsoft Edge, or Google Chrome, everything is fine. But, if I use Safari, it's as you describe - virtually unreadable.

It looks like Safari is trying to force Dark Mode in some situations and not doing it well. Should have this resolved shortly.

Sorry to say that I'm not a fan of the update. Now the graphics are spread out and not appealing from my view. It bothered me enough to just stop my play part way into a challenge. I guess simple isn't the word of the day. :down:

Why do people fix things that aren't broke? This new website layout stinks. Too large a layout (especially given you don't get to have a full-size screen to view the games unless you pay for the privilege), the layout is too confusing, and it took forever to find the location of the link to the Forum. And what's with the WOKE intro (putting white players at the back of the bus)? DEI is DEAD, man! You see this all over TV, too--everything is all about pandering to minorities, but they don't pay the bills! Yeah, yeah, there'll be those who scream, "Racist!!!" Let 'em. I could care less. Let's get back to a more user-friendly layout, where people can more easily find (and view!) their favorite game, and more easily find things on the website, too.

I'm not a fan of the additional lag it causes to the games. I like to check my speed but it is hard to measure with the extra lag.

I will be the first to say…..if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Sorry Web Man. I don’t like the new layout at all.

Maybe beta testing the new site prior to rollout?
