Please let me know what you all think.

Also, there will be more bells and whistles rolled out in due time.

How about having the notifications on no automatically, so we can always choose yes if we want

Same reason Facebook and Twitter has it enabled from the start. To utilize modern technology.

I am using the mobile version right now and I like it better than before. Android and Chrome. 

[beatlesrule]

My laptop and gaming consoles work great.  I use Android and Firefox and it's improved for sure.  The only thing I don't like is the sound anytime someone replies in the thread but all I have to do is find the setting and disable it.  I'll forget the old look in like a week probably haha.

Hey @tdawg87 I have an emoticon just for your Mike Trout posts, or you know, those threads that give you Trout-like erections. 

Wait so "naughty" words like **** and **** are still censored, but the tdawg trout boner emoji is allowed?

Works for me.

Fine! I guess if I can use Fuck everyone else can.

I just don't use it often and if I see it being a trend here, like F-Bomb city...then I'll reestablish the profanity filter.

I'm using the mobile site on a Fire HD tablet and it is WAY, WAY better than it used to be.

I'm not sure. Trying to figure that out. 

i think the blue line shows where you left off reading in the thread, as in it appears at the end of the last post you read.

I am using Mozilla Firefox and ever time I open a new page to read a drop down menu appears asking if I want to receive notifications from Angelswin. I then have to click the page to make it go away.

Any way to get rid of this?

Select the one that says Never Receive Notifications in stead of the one that says no.

[Tank]

chuck, up at the top, the notifications button is white against a white background. any way to change the color of the notifications button? it's hard to find.

That's easy @beatlesrule

Turn off sound. 

[Brandon]

I still can't log in via mobile, it says my password is incorrect and then the email prompt which I never had to do before or had it linked haha.

Anyway to change names since a few of us did so after creating the account?

[Chuck]

@John Stamos go to your profile and you can change your display name and password.

Just click on the menu options on the left.

So off the bat, I will say, the new format comes off as "cheap" with the way it looks. I don't know why, perhaps less solid colors, less easy to navigate, I find myself looking for certain buttons to push to get where I want to go and it takes a while to find them.

I am just wondering why the board needed to be updated?

It is a little different maneuvering both on mobile and on my laptop, but I think I'll figure it out. 

No complaints from me yet, but if I do, I'll give my nickels worth of free advice.

I added some other emoticons. If you have any others that you'd like me to add, send me a PM with a link to download it. 

 

Im not good with emotions. But if i understand that correctly, a pervert cat is double handjobbing, which is a no no. Someone else is saying dont worry about it, just have a drink. 

 

Not sure theres a place for that here, now that aybar is gone.

Here are some we use quite a bit on another board

So far every I've shown the new forum to who does professional website work for a living has said it looks sexy and clean.

I should screenshots of the old forum and new and they all said it's night and day better.

As far as being less easy to navigate and you cannot find this or that, you will get accustomed to the new board in due time. I suggest you tap into all the features and poke around a bit.

[tdawg87]

I like it. It's kind of retro in a way but everything seems to work well.

If I could make one minor suggestion; the likes or "reputation" should go under the post count. 

[Stradling]

I basically only use the mobile version and the only feature I wish it had is when you click on a thread it takes you to the last post read.  I realize I can do this by clicking the circle or the star, but I just think it makes more sense to have it be automatic.

I'm not sure if I can change the order of that but I'll take a look later. @tdawg87

[Chuck]

It was the same way on the old mobile version, @Stradling. There's a reason for that which I explained earlier too.
