Forum changes

Is this the appropriate place to make a forum suggestion, or should I post over in the "Ideas and Suggestions" subforum?

I'm suggesting that a "Solved" project status / prefix option be added for forum threads. I think that would be worthwhile for the "Content Creation" and "Questions and Support" subforums at least.

 

I know that I'm a bit late, having been away for quite a while. Before I read that v bulletin is loosing support, (please don't mine my lack of knowledge of web development and e.t.c) put yourself into the shoes of your average user, logging on to the forums, can you notice the lack of support? Most likely. No. Anyway I will arrange my rant more systematically.

Pros: more features. Cons: impractical, boring to look at, difficult to navigate, headache inducing, invalid links, impossible to attach file on mobile. Now I will go on to explain further, I think as a regular user practicality is of utmost importance, xen foro is exceedingly impractical, take for example a small thing; I have to click the forums bar twice to enter. While this a small change and could well introduce new features, it's impractical. Sure the new forum functions are pretty cool. But I for one would sure prefer practicality over the ability to update status or find out a users latest activity. Most of these functions are useless to us regular users, and to top it off we've had to sacrifice countless functions, some as simple as the "dev blog". I've had to convince myself to write this rant because this forum is now a headache to; view, navigate and use for mobile. The forum animations are jittery on mobile: the navigation bar seems to have a seizure upon scrolling up to it, mobile performance isn't too good either.

In culmination I would 200% recommend "downgrading" to v bulletin. Devs just look at all this feedback, look at the stroll poll. Try to take it into account.

 

This.

I disliked it at first but after a while i got used to it, somethings like userposts and threads are quite hard to find and navigate through. But otherwise i find it quite nice and intuative.

 

I can upload files from mobile just fine, I don't have to press anything twice and nothing is jittery or having a seizure. I'm pretty sure it's your phone, not the site.

 

It just annoys me that there is no more devblog or ability to see who's reading your thread (important when you're deciding whether to keep refreshing or go do something else).

 

The devblog is on the list in the OP of this thread...

 

No, I think he meant that you can't currently access the Devblog. It still redirects you to the Main Page: http://www.beamng.com/blogs/

 

Right. The dev blog is on the list of things which they already plan to fix, and the list is in the OP... the devs realize that it doesn't work and it's on their list of stuff to fix.

 

i love this game

 

Congratulations, and on topic, the new forum has really grown on me, and has received the much needed update.

 

I am not trying to be a pest but it's been awhile since we've heard anything about
the 250MB mod file size limit, how's that going? Thoughts on possible new schemes
to make it work?-Thanks.

Excuse me?

 

I think he meant cache, but I'm not sure

 

Yes, the file/zip size limit of the repo (250MB).
