I was kind of hoping for smell-o-vision...

Maybe next time?

Mutter is BETTER than chat in every single way!!!

mutter is the mutant offspring of chat.

if your talking to more then one person at a time you wont even know whats going on.

hows that better? and also how anyone can see whats going on. yea that's a pretty useful feature.

I really hope that there's finally going to be a proper search engine implemented. It is shocking to see how many duplicate posts appear in 'breaking news' due to the lack of a thorough search engine.

Woot woot !! looks cool..can't wait to try it. Hope it's sooner. Meh can I try it NOW.

Keep the chatroom and ditch mutter, just one users opinion

reply to post by SkepticOverlord


Thanks.

Is there ANY HOPE that it will be easy--as in a click or two easy--to get a page listing of replies to one's posts?

How about addressing one's post to a list of members--idiosyncratic to that post or say a list of friends or a ping list about a particular topic of shared interest?

THOSE TWO above are keenly sought things I've missed hereon since I joined. And . . . one of the reasons I don't spend more time here--because following up one's posts takes so incredibly long and so much bother.

How about a list of one's recent posts and their replies?

THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO AND ARE DOING IN THE NEAR FUTURE TOWARD IMPROVEMENTS. MUCH APPRECIATED.

Correct.

Chat will be replaced by a more widely-available mutter.

That's good news and should improve both (chat & mutter).

Ummm, just because there's a better search function doesn't mean people will use it.
We'll have the same amount of duplicate threads in my opinion, no one searches, they just post.

I can't wait for the new site!

I love ATS...Might sound geeky, but this place is my second home!

Usually, I hate surprises, but this time I think it would be so awesome to wake up one day.....click on ATS & voila! A brand new site to explore!

Please, for us who want it to be a surprise, don't give out too much info that it spoils it.....

Can't wait!

I'm ALL for the more available mutter (which I find superior to chat), BUT... Can we at least make it so that ALL of the standard characters of the standard keyboard are accepted and recognized by it??? Currently, mutter does not recognized MANY symbols (the & being one of them), and this prohibits the sharing of many links... PLEASE!!!!

Wait until you start becoming confused as to which is your first and second and having issues with priorities because you can not seem to pull yourself away from ATS



Yes, I have a slight addiction

Been there done that...made myself a "DENY IGNORANCE" T-shirt

I only said second home because It would sound unhealthy to say.... My home, or my favorite place to be...

Oh gosh.. We need an ATS Anonymous forum....

Overlord, are you looking into an HTML5 based version that adds functionality without the flash?

reply to post by alexander_delta


According to a reply from SO earlier in the thread, there is NO flash in the new website, so I assume it's all HTML5.

~kEEPER

There's nothing in the images SO provided to suggest that it implements anything from HTML 5.

Everything, I would image, will be created using XHTML, CSS and JavaScript.

I like the changes....looks much more streamlined and slick.

Will anything be changing with our ATS statistics (such as Flags, Stars, Applauses) or will it all remain unchanged?

Anything new coming in this regard as well?

I just hope avatars are easer to configure, I have tried this more than a few times without success. Following the posted steps got me no where. Please make it easy.
