Dammit devs! Now I have to make my about page actually look decent
(and maybe leave a few groups i haven't visited in months).

I dig the icons! Like the style. I agree with the choice of ratings available as well.

 

I'm kinda glad the profile post system has been removed, it was just a way for users to spam/sh*it post. I also dig the new sub-forum icons as well. I also like how ratings came back with a good selection. Great job devs!

 

I genuinely liked it, so I'm not so happy about its removal.

Done stated my reasoning.

 

yes the emotes are back

 

I do think the statuses should be kept, but I didn't exactly care toooo much about the posts...

At the same time, did the devs ask if members would be okay with this?

 

Why does it matter? Their house, their rules. Change isn't a bad thing.

 

I think statuses should be kept though.

 

It is still their house, true. I just said that because of what happened last time when they changed. To avoid the chaos the forums went into last time. Even if, the community needs to realize what you said.

 

Did they still limit signatures?

 

Yes, it was to make loading times shorter. They'll very likely not reverse this.

My full signature still exists but now it might not last long oof.

 

Is Skins getting its own catagory like Licence Plates, Configurations ect?

 

Mods and Skins not good enough?

 

Seperated from mods. Insteard of having them combined. License plates got their own so why not skins? Or just combine skins and licence plates, they are both skns.

 

Wait, oh god, I gotta fix mine!

Oh, nevermind, it's deleted

 

Mine was something along the lines of, "I once thought Peugeot was pronounced Pewjit."

 

I don't even remember mine. :'(

 

Yeah, well, as my new custom avatar says, I'm leaving, well, not permanently, I'm just tired of kids pretending like they own the place and being so cool, God, I'll mainly be in my private RP group, a friends group he might need help with, and that's about it

And don't think I'm kidding, I might actually go, seriously, I had some time to think over everything I did for the community, especially looking through the thread honouring those who helped, and I noticed I once knew many of those names, they where friends, helpers who guided me through my first few weeks, and, now, they are all but gone, a memory of what these forums once where, so if I may have only one final post to remember me by in these dark forums, lord let it be here where I make my final ground, soon, like those I once knew, I will be all but a name, a memory to those who once knew me, to those who never will, never could, never would...

And if you do not change this community then my friends, my brothers, you will find that the community shall change you, not for better but for worse, as here, I have seen the sourest of people turn kind, and those so gentle become monsters. Life is but a road, find your way

A wise man, once ran a community, a small village he and friends built on dreams and hard work, he had very loyal citizens come to his village, they helped him build it

His village grew, his name was spread across the land, the village became a city,that city became an empire

Yet, will all great empires, there is someone who is willing to throw everything away to topple it

And, hiding amongst the masses of those wishing to view this great new empire, in came thieves, robbing the community of its riches. Thugs, harassing and annoying the good people, and gang kingpins, who's men never ceased to attempt to topple this kingdom

The king, along with his friends and allies, had no choice but to make the kingdom tougher, they added bigger walls, more soldiers, tougher rules to keep those trouble makers in line, sadly, these rules also punished the good people

The king said that they could not write for too long, as those trouble makers abused it, the good citizens abliged

The king said that they could not use symbols to rate other people, as trolls looking to be famous abused it, the people, reluctantly, abliged

The king said that they could not express their status, as it was abused and Unnessicary, the people abliged

We, the good people, became fewer and fewer amongst the ages, we left as the community we once loved slowly toppled itself

A great blacksmith, making the most wonderful of crafts for all to see, was one of the first to go
Along with a community advisor who had guided me through the village when I first arrived
Soon after a entertainer who's name has been all but forgotten
And those who played the roles of others to entertain
A wealthy owner of an enterprise too big to fail, until it did

These where my experiences in a once great home
Ruined by those who did not know their effects
But know them now
As the people leave in masses
They where friends, some I felt I've known my whole life, all gone, before my eyes

I am now next in line
I can see the train, coming to the station, my ticket in hand, my bags under my arms
The conductor beckoning me onboard
As I look back
I see those faces, ones now unfamiliar
As I board
I see those I once knew
Joining me on a voyage
To the other side

I'd like to say adios, goodbye amigos
A good friend,
-car8john

 

Well, if you choose to permanently go, I bid you farewell.
