Romulan females - dual shoulder pads

This is not my first time mentioning this, but it keeps seeming like it's ignored. Trying again.
Ever since the TNG Romulan outfits came out, the loops of cloth adorning the (rank indicative) dual shoulderpads for Romulan females have been exagerated by comparison of their counterparts as available of romulan males.
Here's a comparison of the shoulderpads on a female romulan character (left) versus the Veteran Dilithium NPC (right), whom is wearing the much better version we had before.
The 'new' version, they float out outward to a ridiculous extent. Before, they were cool. Now, they look horrible on anything except...
That thrice-cursed TNG outfit
(and my vitriol towards it is because it's the reason the female shoulderpads turned the way they have)
Cryptic Devs, can you please fix this? I wore them on my character before. They looked very cool. Now, not anymore. Please restore shoulderpads on Romulan females to the way they were before (as in, just like the romulan males, on which they look perfect).
Pretty please, with a cherry on top. Geez, I'm not even sure of how to ask for this anymore.

Of course, it was incredibly obnoxious a year ago, and hasn't been fixed since. So I guess we'll just keep screaming into the unfeeling darkness, waiting for a response that will never come.
But I agree, the old ones are less bad looking.
(Seconding my request for some reasonable looking Romulan rank insignia as an alternative to those gaudy things.)
This, too, has bothered me for the longest time, though I never realized it was likely due to being made to fit the TNG uniforms.
In this case, I'd rather we get two sets, "narrow" and "wide" or something like that.
to which I'd happily settle to what we had before (narrow) and happily live with the clipping on the TNG outfit.
That'd be one outfit with them looking silly, versus now all the other outfits with which they look silly.

No one's forcing you to.
The people that like them can wear 'em. The people that don't, well, don't.
This thread is mostly for the people that might like them, but go "eww, why did Cryptic break something that was fine before?!" Or those that agree that the change they made is kind of messed up. Or others whom approve of having the two "narrow" and "wide" version.
Not that I don't appreciate the bump, but can we please keep this on topic?
My only real problem with that is that someone put time and effort into making them and releasing them for use. In my opinion that is wasted effort that could've gone into other projects. It'd be different if we ever saw anything remotely resembling that look from Trek Romulans (and to be fair, perhaps I missed something in Enterprise or one of the last couple of movies) but as far as I know, they're completely out of context.

I haven't had the opportunity to see how they looked like by comparison between Romulan males and females. I do know that the cloth part is still being pretty floaty.

What the hell is wrong with you, Cryptic?!
