Thread: With great upgrades...come great responsibility - of your feedback!

So the new site look...do you like it? Do you hate it?

What are the things you missed from the old to the new?

Do you want additional forums?

Remember we can't make everyone happy, but you might be able to give us some insight to things we're missing.


The current vbulletin - as has been relayed to me from dasaybz - is extremely new, so there aren't as many "hacks" available right now. "hacks" are fun clickable features like stats, thanks buttons...etc.

When we initially started out we wanted to keep things basic because we didn't want to have tons of forums with no one posting in them. So if you suggest a forum, remember, you are going to have to use it!


As always, thanks for your feedback guys!

I hate that the shoutbox goes idle and you miss huge segments of convo until you "log in"

Those are just my random thoughts, the new layout and the repetitiveness have really taken the edge off for me.

I know we ran into a problem that resources were being drained because the chatbox was constantly open on members desktop - for hours at a time. This was a big reason for why we had such a slow site when we first changed over to the new look. The IT duders put a cap on how long you could be idle. We'll look into extending the idle time - but if we start running into slow responses again from our host - we'll have to scale it back.

Thank you for the feedback!!

I've extended the idle time to 2 hours and moved the archive prune from 8 hours to 12 hours - so you chatboxoholics can catch up.
