Fallout Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions

This thread is for complaints/concerns/opinions on site design/functionality/whatever. We welcome these opinions we just ask that you post in a respectful manner and understand that we reserve the right to change (or not change) any of these things based on what we think is beneficial to the company and to the community as a whole.

There is an often quoted proverb which states that you can please some of the people, some of the time, but you can't please all of the people, all of the time. With a site conversion, this is definitely the case.

Posts about broken functionality will not be addressed, please put your posts in the proper thread.

It's not, wanna fight?


Okay, I had a complaint. I swear I had broken 1000 posts before the site conversion. I swallowed down the odd bump down to about 800, as a gesture of cooperation and fair play. However, I swear that at that time I had ~790 posts listed (when the new site went live), and now it's only going down! O.O

I was a Captain before - I will not give up my chair just because someone doesn't think all of my posts are useful!


Now look what you've unleashed.....

I rebuilt the post counts which should go and look up the exact number of posts in the system at the time and you should now have an accurate post count based on those numbers. If you have had posts deleted, those will not count.

Hey, we're both Majors now! < salutes! >

Though, I should always state it as Major _______ James Douglas Morrison, you know, in case someone wants to insert something descriptive.

Unhappy Re: Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions

The new forum at http://forum.shrapnelgames.com is blocked, or on a server that is blocked. I cannot reach it at work even during lunch or after I get off. The old site at http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com was not blocked. I don't know if a vanity URL or other link changes would fix this.

I really don't care for the background color of the forums. It just looks dirty to me. Everything else looks ok-even the predominant darker blue. But the background is completely unappealing to me. A nice, clean, slightly greyish/tannish, old parchmenty white color (not pure white, please) would still blend with the blue, while making the whole look less like unfiltered aquarium water.

I don't see how light blue is dirty.I can only see it as a screen being dirty.

HB,
You really shouldn't use bleach and gasoline to clean your LCD monitor.
