Pretty New Buttons...

reply to post by razor1000


Pray tell, what information are you speaking of? In my last post, I was merely offering my opinion on the new buttons; nothing about the site load times. While it's true that someone will go to great lengths to post here if they really want to, I find it somewhat presumptuous, and even a bit feudalistic to suggest that those of a lower bandwidth (lower class) are somehow holding out by their reluctance to adjust to the new "standard". Some people are forced to stick with a system that they know is patently flawed, simply because they have no better means of accomplishing what they need to accomplish at the current time.

It is what it is. Like you yourself said, there are poor people out there that cannot afford to get broadband. So why should we NOT cater to them, if only for a short time? I think a concession now, to reap the benefits of new membership in the near future is a valid, and [dare I say?] smart business model.

Horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE idea...

There was NO bloody reason to change the buttons.

It looks bland now, its just...horrific...change them back, ugh, this better just be a temporary test.

i was thinking the same.. i like the old one's

but.. we dont pay for the site.... so i better shut up and continue to surf...

What buttons? You mean the ones that say Home, News, Stats, Hot topics, Board, and so on?

If so, I like them.

I actually love all the changes - the site now loads much faster and is much less buggy, I used to get thrown out all the time (I don't think it was personal??!!). Since the changes far less problems.

I am all in favour of simplicity when the result is efficency.

Good work and excellent results.

Thank you.

I'm with the 2 thumbs down people on this one. The old picture/color coded ones allowed far better automatcity when navigating.

Yeah me too I dont like that u2u button still it doesnt change color when I have a message? so I have to keep checking it... rather than be notified. you should make it light up brighter red when theres a u2u?

A U2U button appears when you have a u2u, so you do get notified...

The u2u button is there all the time as before... its dark reddish with yellow u2u writing.... but when I have a message it doesnt glow or highlight, you get me? stays the same, so I cant tell theres any u2u unless I actually click the u2u button.....

No? Sorry.

When you have a new u2u inbox you see the little u2u tab. If you don't have a new u2u it isn't there. So once you see the u2u tab you know you have a u2u, right?

No sorry My u2u button is there constantly even tho Ive no new u2u's..... what if I deleted ALL of my inbox and outbox would the button go away?

Thanks.

It's there all the time? Hmm...it only shows up for me when I have a new u2u.

Do you have any unread u2u's in your inbox? Trying deleting or saving them and see if the u2u tab goes away. Anything in your outbox shouldn't matter.

Good thinking I thought that may be it but no theres no unread U2U's.

Try deleting them or saving them. It should make the u2u tab go away.

Ah sorted. I had to delete all my messages thats all I could do to lose it, so I saved what I wanted.... thanks for your help.

Cool.

I would just like to express Enjoies, that for a "experienced" ATS'er like your self, you would know how to follow the rules. Apparently not, apparently you think your self above the rules as always.

I have alerted this thread to the staff because of your numerous oneline post!









Thats for faking me out with the u2u you sent me!

The buttons don't matter to me at all.

Whatever takes me to where I need to go, works for me.

But...but...but I was just helping someone out.

I wouldn't worry about it.

Moving right along.

So how 'bout them buttons? Not too bad once you get used to them.
