Now, about Epiphany's profile...

Conversely it can also reinforce old friendships and build new ones e.g. rating each other 5 stars and leaving little love notes in the comments section. )

 

 

You now have a love note from me...

Yep... everyone in the last several posts get 5 stars.

Yeah, the myspace like features do seem a bit much, though I feel some real damage can be done to the self esteem of other members.

Yeah... if this keeps going, it won't be long before the first "I'm quitting teh internets forevah!!!1" threads begin to appear... ^_^

That is a "5-star" comment my man.

The calendar function seem mildly interesting

 

It already existed.

Walsingham tried once to add an entry... and that messed up the entire forums front page...

Yep... everyone in the last several posts get 5 stars.

 

Damnit! I knew I was going to miss out on something by attempting this sleep thing I'd heard so much about!

Many smilies suck

Has anyone else noticed that they now have an assistant? And the ability to delete PM's that you have sent before they are read? Is that so that we can write really bad things about someone, send it to them and then delete it seconds before they get a chance to read it?

 

Also, when are they going to remove the ugly green box around sections of the forum that have been minimized on the board index?

It needs a bit of tweaking, certainly, but I'm glad they've kept the overall colour scheme and look of the boards.

 

Shame there's no new forum for the two forthcoming games.

 

Is the calendar shared or personal? And what's the assistant, Deraldin?

"MY assistant" was there before but it didn't do much... to save me describing you could just play around with it. *shrugs*

 

The calendar has options for personal or public events.

Oh, that assistant. I think I must have clicked on it once when I first joined and marked it mentally as 'not interesting or useful', because I can't remember what it used to do.

 

Now it's in a little window offering to link me to the moderating team, lest I forget who they are. How nice!

Ooh I do like the "last people to look at your profile feature" no more anonymous stalking!

Nice. :D

Ooh I do like the "last people to look at your profile feature" no more anonymous stalking!

 

GODDAMNIT!

Wow, this is an eye opener. Looking at my recent posts, all I've done is reply in the music thread, I contribute nothing to this board. This is depressing.

Same here. It's definitely more useful now.

 

Does this upgrade mean I'm going to have to go elsewhere for tranny porn links and Propecia advertisements?

The little black "O" indicating a dev post is gone. I have mixed feelings about this. It was a nice way to know which threads were "important," but it also obliterated the little folded-down corner which helps track the threads that I have commented on (i.e., which threads are "really important" ).

It also has a tabs for most recent posts, a search feature and most recent PMs.

no more anonymous stalking!

 

It's so much less fun when they can see you.

 

The new board is watching us watch each other, encouraging us to rate each other and form groups within groups, but to what end?

Uhm.. It seems you guys are up in arms about features I can't even see.

 

Ok, this Quick Reply looks a bit different, I'll admit as much..

My Friends? What if you don't have any friends?

Was there a gender indicator before? I'll be female today.

My Friends? What if you don't have any friends?

 

Then you get to be just like me!

The way the avatars are now bunched up on the left does not look good.
