New Asmodee Forums

By Khyros, in X-Wing

Alright, let's figure this new place out together. Questions thus far:

1) How does one make it the dark scheme again?

Answer: Apparently you can't. Get used to bright white everywhere!

2) Where does one change his avatar?

Answer: You can now freely change avatars. And they are now feeding through from the c/o avatars. In edit profile, click your profile picture to choose a new one.

3) Where are our signatures?

Answer: Still unknown if they were kept

Things noticed:

1) You can now directly upload a picture, yay!

2) You can see people's reputation right away.

3) You no longer see who likes your post.

3) Where is the Revert back to the good ole days layout?

4) WHY DO I HAVE TO SCROLL DOWN TO GET PAST THE DIFFERENT SUB-TOPICS?

5) Where are our signatures? They certainly didn't use all this wasted space for our those...

Good thing: You can finally change your avatar freely!

Considering how many still aren't over the EU/Legends issue, the change to the forums is gonna take an awful long time.

Not a fan of the new forum so far. I'm hoping the slowness is just a temporary thing.

Only thing that's bugging me is the lack of signatures.

Decent layout, very clean in my book. I do wish I could change it back to the old color scheme though.

Man i hope our sigs haven't been deleted, that was the only place i kept my tourney records.

How do you change your Avatar then?

And I'll be glad to see the back of signatures.

Awww... I can't see who liked others posts anymore... That's... Depressing. :(

I don't think you can see who liked your own post either.

That removes most of the reason that I even bother to like posts. With it becoming anonymous, the feature loses almost all of its communication value.

I want the old theme back :(

And my signature back

Also it appears you now see the likes you have over your posts.

I liked WWHSD's post above me. This gonna be a pain. Now I have to say when I like stuff -_-

Well....this will take a bit to get used to.

Seems to load slower.

Edit reason?

For testing.

I'm also not a huge fan of a user's reputation being shown under their portrait. I preferred that to be information that you could find but had to actually go looking for.

It looks like you can upload images directly now.

I guess that's nice.

I didn't like my initial word choice.

Seriously. I could care less if a faceless blob liked my post. if WWHSD does though, then that means something. Dang. That's really sad. Why remove that I wonder?

Reason for edit is kind of cool. Not sure how often I'll use it.

Edited by WWHSD
It looks like you can only have one reason for edit, even if you edit multiple times.

2 more WWHSD posts liked, my post count is going to blow up now -_-

It seems a little clunky right now. I bet they keep adding a few more features in the coming days/weeks though such as sigs and such.

So much wasted space! So many jarring segments of whitespace. Such sucky performance.

I really hope they give this a bit of an overhaul in the next days...

Overall it seems pretty nice. Did we always have the capability of following specific users and such? If so, the new interface makes that much clearer (or perhaps the change has simply just forced me to look into it more closely lol).

You can still insert images from URLs.

Meme was so dank I didn't even care that the font was too big.

Same. They should come back.

Agreed. Respected members liking my posts is a far better metric than sheer number of likes.

Also agreed. As above, who likes what is much more important than just being liked.

That's a decent addition. Can be useful if you've seen something before and want to know what's changed, or to hide tongue-in-cheek comments.

It now gives you a notification if you've been quoted. That's nice I guess.

Hey, it turns out if you're not logged in, the "like" bug DOES show you the user names of those who liked the post. At least it did for me. Anyone else find this to be true?

Overall I despise the new look. So...much...scrolling.
