• The site has now migrated to Xenforo 2. If you see any issues with the forum operation, please post them in the feedback thread.
  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
  • The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

XF2 transition feedback

Reader mode
Bigger text, wider margins, text box issues, and the weirdness that is having the post time added above the post and the profile picture spacing issues are the primary things that I have stylistic issues with.

That's actual feedback derived from me flipping between the Xenforo Default and Dark Mode, not just complaining.

Granted, the text issue is also present in Xenforo, so, y'know... that might be personal bitching.

UOOOOOOHHHH BRATTY FORUM NEEDS CORRECTION

Anways, from what I see, the major points:

1. Move 'Users who are viewing this thread' box below the reply box
2. ADD MORE STYLES
3. Make sticky header optional, as some like it and some (like myself) absolutely hate it
4. MORE STYLES UOOOOOHHHHH
5. On page loading, the sticky header covers up the threadmarks line, which is a minor, but annoying, quibble
6. STYLES STYLES STYLES
7. Something about mobile users, apparently there's issues but I am a superior PC wielder and thus above such petty failings
8. This one's mostly me, but int he text editor can we make it sothat it doesn't have the '...' more options bit unless there's actually not enough space? atm there's just a vast chunk of empy space because spoilers/etc. are hidden behing the 'more options' button which is +1 click per spoiler added in comparison to the olden times.
9. STYYYYYYYYYYYLLLLLEEEEEEEESSSSSSS

Btw, for those who hate all three of the Styles currently available and are on Google Chrome, download the Dark Reader Extension and use it in conjunction with Xenforo Default.

Oh that helps a lot. Screws up the formatting, but it's a mercy for my eyes.

I'm going to wait a few days for the problems to be sorted out and the old styles and functions to be re-implemented.
 
when i wanted to look for new post to find something new i just hit the new posts button but now i have to find it in a drop-down menu which is just an unnecessary extra butten push.
also finding Somone's threads in their profile it is also in a drop-down window in an unintuitive place.

also, the color themes are just ugly that may just be me not liking change but if you could add some more that looked like the old ones that would be appreciated

also, the header thing that follows you down the screen should just not follow you down the screen it gets in the way while reading and is an eyesore

In addition to shifting the Watched threads section up in the Forums menu, there needs to be the New Threadmarks option close by. It's weird to have to check Forums for watched threads, but then reference What's New for watched threadmarks. Frankly, ditching What's New and importing everything of value under the Forums menu would be nice. Annihilate the extraneous Home button while you're at it.
 
Ha! I knew keeping old pages open forever on my browser would pay off some day!!!!

This is a snapshot of how my old browsing experience looked, hopefully it'll help?

The name of the Old style was Dark Responsive High Contrast (It REALLY helped my eyes)

Tbh, feels half-baked and something that needed to be in the oven for several more months. Information density is way down, everything is maximally spaced when they don't need to be, everything takes multiple button presses to reach content that used to take one, no themes available, 'upgrading' broke practically everything, the toolbar is way too obtrusive, etc. Also, fairly sure the text has blur, or something to that effect. Not to mention obvious shit like the tiny QQ logo. It feels more like a live preliminary test, rather than an update.

It's a pure downgrade on every level.

Old QQ skin when?

Img is broken on mobile. Another issue.
 
I honestly hope the current look is a stand-in while the upgrades are continuing in the background. The reader mode feels like it's been shrunk and I hope the themes come back because this Grey is terrible. The Old Style was a lot better, That's how I feel right now, but I guess I'll take a wait and see approach to this.

Hope we get some better dark styles. Current Default Dark is pretty meh to me.

I used to have UI.X Dark (Mobile) before, but it sucked coz I couldn't see story tags with that...
Hopefully, we'll get some new styles I can actually tolerate without loosing those tags.
 
The fu- We can't copy paste images anymore? We went from a convenient quick copy paste to having to manually insert every link now? How is this an upgrade?

It looks uglier and options that we had before are gone, what even was the point? I could deal with the appearance change after getting used to it, but when you outright remove functionality from the site it just becomes bullshit.

Image is broken since you used Imgur, QQ and Imgur are not compatible... Use https://postimages.org instead.
