Hey guys the upgrade is not complete yet so don't worry, I am pretty sure things like quick reply will be intergrated soon.

Re: New RealGM format- blue on blue
I think we'll get used to most of the changes... Overall looks good. Pretty smooth. I'm sure it'll get better with future tweaks. Just 2 comments:
1. The blue on blue type on the main page does make it much harder to find topics -- aesthetics at the cost of comfort.
2. I find it hilarious that you graduate from "veteran" at 2500+ posts to "analyst" at 3000+ posts. I think we would all pass on analyst...

It's kind of whack but I'm sure we'll get used to it. My problem is there's no communication to the users (us) about the new features and how to navigate the site now. There really should a tutorial or something.

Thing I miss the most is the 'Quick Reply' feature on the last board. That's a great addition and saves extraneous web clicking. Overall I've seen worse, but I've definitely seen better. Given that I love reading the posts around here, only a horrible webmaster could drive me away!

Re: New RealGM format- blue on blue
The smilie's look retarted.
The blue on Blue formate makes it a strain on the eyes.
The quote feature is now not even up to par with just putting quotation marks around the statement.
And if they are trying to go for a all sports feel with the realgm.boards/index.php area, they should leave an option for favorite league [aka NBA, wich this site is still 90% mainly here for]
Other then that the slide show should be able to be turned off. First and foremost this is a site to chat, and putting in features that make it more difficult to get to posts and read them shows a lack of rememberance of why this site had become successful.

Re: New RealGM format- blue on blue
This really sucks.
Add me to the list of posters that really thinks it sucks to lose the Quick Reply option. That is going to especially suck in game threads.
Add me to the list of those having log-in issues. If I open the log-in screen in a new browser window, and log-in there, when I refresh another browser window or open a new link in a new window, I am not logged in in that window.
That especially sucls because it means that in order to post something, I have to click reply, then log-in, be taken to my user CP, forwarded to the master forum index, and then navigate all the way to where I wanted to post something. And that especially sucks because these pages all take forever to load. In fairness, the taking too long to load problem is partially b/c I'm on an older computer, and its a problem I've been having a lot over the past week. But this will suck even more on my pocket pc.
I also miss the old wiretap. It loaded much faster, made the headlines more easily visible, and was very pocket pc friendly.
I also agree that the color scheme could have bee made much better, but thats not a huge deal to me relative to other issues

And with the browser I'm using right now - Opera (a virus disabled my IE and I have been to loazy to fix that up, Firefox annoys me and that same virus changed my Firefox so that it crashes whenever its download manager opens) - I can't even view wholes posts. Each paragraph is one long line that extends beyond the viewable portion of my screen

Alright at least I've figured this out. It only does this to me after I've posted something and it forwards me to what I've posted...actually it just randomly seems to either work or not work on a given page load

Re: New RealGM format- blue on blue
This is the worst thing to ever happen to RealGM.
This **** sucks.
I can't stand it. Terrible. Its ugly, hard to navigate, and it sucks.
Did I mention that this sucks.
Posting count is going to go waaaaay down because of this crap.

Re: New RealGM format- blue on blue
I know this is stating the obvious and is likely what others are thinking. But, what does blue have to do with the Celtics? The face of the board looks like it's going for a more universal feel as oppose to a specific feel that would've been to be... I don't know, green... Where's the distinction?
