New GFY: Problems or Suggestions - post 'em here - GoFuckYourself.com

Lensman · 01-26-2002, 04:00 PM

On the surface, the new GFY is almost the same. But as you can now tell, there are a lot of subtle differences and additions.

So, is anything fucked up or are there any suggestions to make it better. There are a few more things we're working on, but the best ideas come from everyone (I just steal the credit).

...and remove all sponsor banners.

When a thread is locked I think there's something wrong with the reply button :
http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/showth...threadid=46863

It's not showing.

Otherwise, nice new board

especially ->

...Oh, I'd love to see that rating thingy where U can rate other members. :D

funkmaster · 01-26-2002, 04:07 PM

I use netscape with java script turned off, I have never ever ssen a banner here ... except within the signatures ...

... but what I don´t like about the new board is all those useless polls .. they are kinda .. ah, you know ...

01-26-2002, 04:09 PM

Polls suck ass and are useless.

boneprone · 01-26-2002, 04:13 PM

On the topics page:

Before only the topic was underlined, now the topic is underlined, along with the "topic starter" name, and "replies" number.

clean it up and dont have so much stuff underlined. I realize the underline means its "clickable" but to see soo much stuff underlined makes it look less neat, and a bit sloppy.

Make the shit still clickable, but dont have it underlined. Only the topic should be underlined. This would clean it up and make the board less of an eye sore, and clean like it was before.

Also there are two colors going on in the text. A link color, and a already been visited color. It looked better when it was just one white color, not the white and blue.

Also the signatures. It seems they are more of an eye sore than before also. It may be becasue as of late people are making bigger banners, but we had that shit going on before and it was controlable. The signatures are out of control, and making threads look just plain sloppy. By default the "add signaure box" is checked now. So everyone, every time (by default) a signature is added to thier every post, every reply. Before if someone wanted a signature added to their post they would have to go out of thier way to check the box to do so, which reduced that annoying signature to be posted on every one of his or hers post.

The functions of the board are great. The speed is bad ass, and the bonus functions are awsome! We just need to make some minor adjustments to "clean" it up a bit. Too much visual stimulation, and what was once very nice and neat, has become multiple colored underline text overload, and saturation of signatures.

And Thats the bottom line casue boneprone said so.

Why are the topic and post tables only 80% would be better at 95%

yeah i mentioned that earlier. The post table seems to be smaller, yet the screen it slef seems larger.

I have a right left tool bar at the bottom of my screen now (unlike before)

GFY is in a box now.

Its too wide, yet the box table of topics seems smaller.

Maybe the sponsors table is too wide, and the topics table is too small?

I thought that too, but the old GFY had a right-left scrollbar at 800x600 when I checked.

I agree on that one, especially on the polls

boneprone · 01-26-2002, 04:27 PM

also after "fucking poll" have a line break.

Fucking Poll:
blah balh blah blah

not :

Fucking Poll: Blah Blah
Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah

It would look cleaner.

Fuck im like a little bitch when it comes to neatness. Sorry.

Sorry.

I thought the same thing (you stole the idea from me). But either it's all underlined or none. And I'm thinking of making it none.

A two-line subject? I don't know about that one.

Oh ya and a vote on a poll should count as a post.

Or else polls go to the bottom like rocks in water...

That's the point.

boneprone · 01-26-2002, 04:32 PM

The word "fucking poll" is so long it takes up 85% of the first line anyhow. You are only goign to be able to fit in one short word next to it anyhow.

That "fucking poll" topic is going to be 2-3 lines regardless.

Lensman · 01-26-2002, 05:48 PM

I widened the thread table another 5% to 85%.

On the side scrolling at 800x600 thing, that's because we've got a hard-coded black box on the right to balance Mrs. GFY on the left. It's always been there, especially on the old GFY.

bunky · 01-26-2002, 06:50 PM

i must say that the new GFY is nice and in sum ways better... as far as the smiles go its missing one. a nice lil smily face with the finger up. kinda makes sense huh?

boneprone · 01-26-2002, 08:51 PM

no dude it wasnt there before. (the side scrolling)

Look.

Compare the 2 urls

http://gofuckyourself.com/

http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/...ML/005255.html

its the sponsors table at the bottom of the screen. Its too wide and makes a side scroll bar in 800 by 600 viewing.

Za Ha · 01-26-2002, 09:13 PM

I still dont know how to change the thing under my username....

That one contains no ads, it's the ad at the top. Same as the old board.

One cool new thing no one noticed yet is that if you edit your post right away (typo or something), the "edited" note doesn't appear.

Sweet.

^R3K^ · 01-27-2002, 02:03 AM

i promise thats all i want is my own small GFY, a Big grin smilie, a mousepad, a fucking clock, a Popeil pocket fisherman, a boob shaped cookie cutter and a gallon of spring water. thanks in advanced

Lensman,

I suggest making another board section called "The Bar"

A place we can go & talk shit.....ramble on in disgusting pornographic redderick.

O wait....we already got that

Nuthin man....what could possibly be improved on now?

gleem · 01-27-2002, 02:18 AM

Oh, also bring back the "email you when your post is replied to" thingy.

Unlike most of you, I can't hang out here all day I'm trying to retire next year so I am working my ass off, nice to get an email when someone posts to my topic so I can answer before it gets buried 12 pages down
