    Probably would have spared us some. Then again, at this point dunno why they didn't just wipe the CO forums, since nothing has been relevant in the past 3 or 4 years. :|

    Probably because they didn't want to give anyone the excuse to troll the other forums.

    Well, considering that you're the living/undead mummified remains of an Egyptian goddess, only you can really answer that one.

    You're already ruining your eyes by looking at your monitor in the dark anyway.
  • Yep, forums are back up. And a big chunk of us lost access (AGAIN), the front page no longer shows updated threads/new threads, the ui is ugly and clunky, our avatars shrank to the size of a pea, and to get to the news forum takes 4 clicks farther than the like 7 it takes to log into the forum in the first place.

    I mean jeeze, I used to admin a forum that was a spinoff of bioware's off-topic board for a good few years. We did board redesigns all the time, but I never *removed* features, and I sure as hell didn't force people to migrate before I was done setting them up. This is bad juju.

    It really doesn't help that these are the most bare-bones, badly laid out vanilla forums I've ever encountered.

    This forum is painful to use now.

    If this page http://perfectworld.vanillaforums.com/categories/co could show their sub forums in them as well as the latest updated thread, it would be infinitely better.

    You're already ruining your eyes by looking at your monitor in the dark anyway.

    lights are on,otherwise, I can't see the keyboard. Why the heck would you watch the screen in the dark? Your pupils open wider due to the dark, then get hit with the light from the screen.
    That's a bad as wearing those silly sunglasses with only a small lens at the front but nothing to stop light coming in above or from the sides.
    I have anti glare coating on my glasses because my eyes are light sensitive. Let in too much light.
    One good thing about the new forums;
    one of our forum trolls will have to download ARC in order to continue posting.

    Then my signature shouldn't actually bother you as long as you have the lights on and you wear your glasses. So no need to join the trolling.

    Man, I'm gonna have a long list of stuff to report to TrailTurtle if I ever get moderator status again. This is going beyond simply just editing stuff out.

    The most amusing part is you going around flaccidly threatening everyone u.u yeah yeah I know, hellfire and brimstone once you get your admin powers back... I don't think anyone cares because nobody wants to even use these forums now.

    Hell for all we know you'll go to moderate someone and it'll delete your own account the way things "work" around here...

    Truth be told, I'm actually a little amazed TT hasn't popped up in here already. I think we're at least 2 pages past this being locked on the old boards.

    Upside to the front page not showing recent posts, I guess. I can say you're all a bunch of poo juggling man-mattresses and nobody's gonna be able to stop me.

    Here's the tape that ran through my head after reading your comment, Biff:

    Curly - The day is gonna come, the day is gonna come, and when That day is gonna comes...

    :: pause ::

    Moe - Yeah?

    Curly - The day is gonna come.

    Threatening, fire and brimstone? You might be reading too much into it. Just making the observation, is all.

    I'm not the one who does the banning, so that's all out of my hands.

    Yeah. I imagine the day they actually expect you to try to start moderating around here again, the first time you push whatever buttons you need to push is gonna be a tense moment where you wonder if everything is just going to explode xD

    And then it actually will explode. And everyone will blame you :|

    Yeah, when they fixed the redirect it apparently kicked the busted accounts into operation again. Score, I actually didn't expect that. Historically, the outlook hasn't been good.
