Snowflakes: New site
I am here to eat my share of the crow.
This is going to take some time to get used to so I'll reserve judgement until then. It looks clean but clearly has some issues, which is to be expected.
I was just able to log-in for the first time today to comment or read, but please, someone tell me the front page is not the actual-new front page? That's an old version used as a place holder, right? Please???? Those blinking stars are enough to make me kill a man...
Avatar checks out.
My snowflakes: The login issue that kicked a bunch of us out last night seems fixed, because I was able to log in.
The Mgoboard is both harder to see and shows fewer threads. But perhaps the "go to mgoboard" link will get used more, I don't know. Right now it's a hard adjustment.
It looks good, I'll enjoy the layout more when I am fully used to it.

This gif was saved to my desktop then uploaded as an image. URL/linking gifs don't seem to be working quite just yet.
Am I supposed to only be able to access the new site via mobile? It is still in the “new” purgatory site state on my PC
Clear the cache on your browser. It works on your mobile because you're using your browser in Private which doesn't cache files. Good thing you're in porn mode.
HUEL should have applied cache busters when they pushed the new site so hopefully they do that soon. Lot of bugs they're working out, I'm sure.
Looks like Rivals...
I'm alive!
GIF posting is working, hooray!
I guess not. It shows up in the Preview, but not after saving
Wow! It looks great.
Why can’t we see who started the thread? I like to avoid certain people and really want to see UMBig11 threads.
Had no trouble logging in. Now just need to hear Beilein is staying for sure and things will be great.
Vast improvement. And a couple early issues:
1. Extremely poor use of screen real estate on normal PCs. Presumably this is so people with giant slabs of meat at the ends of their arms can navigate on tiny touch-screen devices, but it's still unfortunate that it's so skewed that way. There is a lot less info on one screen now; more scrolling and clicking required.
2. Rendering issues in IE11. I know, everyone loves to hate IE, but some of us still use for reasons of privacy that cannot be effected with Chrome or Edge. Facebook is sandboxed on my PC in Firefox.
Meh. It would be nice to be able to display 300 comments all at once like the old site. And a button to go to the top/bottom of a thread quickly.
Maybe add the thread creation date/time.
Could have been a lot worse I suppose.
I am user 31385! Cool!
Testing posting a pic:
Embed attempt:
So . . . how do you do it now?
it used to be switch to pure text, copy embed code, switch back to rich text, save.
How do you do it now?
This new website is less than ideal.
Yesterday I wasn't able to log in because of "too many invalid login attempts from this IP" which was odd because I hadn't had any unsuccessful login attempts. No problems today though.
Anyone else still getting the 2004 version of the site on desktop? I get the new one on mobile only.
I cannot access most of the new site via desktop. Cleared cookies and caches, tried IE, Firefox, Chrome. I can only access the board, if I google search Mgoblog and select the Mgoboard
Even when on the new, updated Mgoboard, using those links will not work
No idea what's going on...
Is there a way to tell when a post in new? I think that feature got dropped
The post listing preferences (oldest/newest first options) are not saving!
Yeah, yikes, an hour of navigating here now and it seems like maybe a bunch of familiar annoyances with known work-arounds have been traded in for a different set of unfamiliar annoyances.
Some stuff is going to get through testing, but a year of testing only to have rendering malfunctions and major broken features...hmmm.
It's fast, but it has to be because there is a shitpile more clicking and scrolling required now.
It does render better in Edge. I guess maybe it goes there by itself like Facebook lives on Firefox by itself.
Ok, getting used to the new site. I REALLY miss the "top" links to get to the top of the page. I hate scrolling.
First world problem?
I am unhappy. No one will read this post though.
Did anybody else have their points reset to zero with the new site?
Holy sh1t. I'm gone for three days and this.... WOW!!! it's like christmas! and it doesn't look anything like RCMB!!! YES!!!!
