For real, can we change the background of this forum to something that is more visually appealing?!?!?1
(And more accessible pls)
1. Its hard to look at, there is too much black and red where there should be brighter colors to give off a "friendlier" atmosphere
2. 2 EDGY 5 ME, Like, although it may not be "edgy" it definitely gives a sinister vibe as said earlier.
3. Its hard to write subjects, without having to highlight, or delete, or rewrite a lot of what has been said
4. Not easy to navigate- In the gray/grey forums, everything was on a smaller, more compact scale, allowing it to be easier to get to one section to another, or from thread to thread, but now, everything is in a unappealing black, red, and yellow text for headings.
5. Its disorganized and kinda ticks me off - I dont think i have OCD, as i do not label myself as someone who'd get "Obsessive" over a small off center thing, but a lot of the forum is... offset.FOR EXAMPLE, the "news" bar is VERY off center, hell, it just extends to the right forever, not to mention the PRIMARY BANNER IS OFFSET AS WELL
Im not the only one noticing these am i?
Although it may come off as demanding, a change to the forums had already been "announced" !!!!!!
...
That was when the forum was 2 days old,
and now its at least 2 months old by now. This forum just needs to look "sharper" and "sleeker" with more crisp cut corners and edges, with more organized conjunctions of organization, as there are 4 primary groups, with almost half of the 10 boards are unused and barely touched
(Member complaints, Member Suggestions, Combat Leaderboard, Approved Member Arcs, and Posted missions, others - like member thread - can be included, but i didn't because they actually have posts, MOST OF WHICH ARE REPLIES RATHER THAN ACTUAL INDIVIDUAL THREADS)
The forums haven't been updated in a VERY LONG TIME and is way overdue. This is a section for people to socialize OOC in freedom, but having an unappealing forum is going to keep people away from doing so, I would appreciate it if it was changed...
Also, Color variation, or at least a use of grey rather than a strict black would be appreciated. At least do the grey instead of black thing... please? it makes things easier to read. That is why the previous forum(s) were successful despite all the constant moving that had been done.
Ty for reading i guess.
Please keep in mind: the poll is for whether people think the forums should be changed into something more visually pleasing, instead of whats on as of now. |

As long as it works is really what I'm concerned about but if you want to come across as "professional RP group" then the forums might need a bit of a touch up.

this isn't a petition. This is a complaint. Post in the correct forum I chose not to put it in the complaint forum because the last time i posted in it no one responded, (it was about the chat thing, since skype seemed too "inner circle"-ey, and could easily be uh... turned on its head) I will post it in the correct forum, but if nothing is done about it no clear cut "This is going to happen" "this is not going to happen" or a given time frame is said, it just proves that the forum is unreliable for a response. |

Further more, this is my way of seeing people opinions on the subject. Whilst i do admit it is a complaint, I said the poll was to see what people actually think of the forums, whether they agree it should be changed, or just kept how it is. Although i announced it as a "petition" I made it so I could help try to make the forums better, and if what i think is better is wrong, then people would say it is. Community discussion in general should fit into the genre of complaints. If adding a poll, to a hardly looked at section of the forum is going to attract attention then hey why not. But its clear it isnt. Theres a distinct difference in amount of views one gets compared to the other, and since im looking for people's opinions, and yes to gather attention for the subject, but no not for me. I rather have people discuss it as a community.

Oh, and through forum, i still havent been answered, whether the forums will, or will not change. So far its been "If i ever get around to it" "If i ever get the time" or "If we seem it is necessary" I've been getting the answers that rely upon circumstance. I still havent gotten a concrete answer. So yeah. Alright. Cya. If its flat out no from here out i guess im done with the topic.

You can always post the thread link on the group wall in the group, but I don't think you understand the fact that you need to be a little patient about this. I'm not trying to shoot you down or anyfin, but I think you should just post this elsewhere and wait for somefin to happen. Grim said it himself that he will work on another forum. This is just a website to communicate freely besides using skype and also announcing things. It's not much of a big deal, the whole entire forum is great and all. It has its problems, but it will be fixed soon. It just takes time. |

Like i said, this was primarily my way of seeing what people thought of the forum, and i can see now that im the only one with a strong opinion that this should change i guess, everyone else has just said it's "fine" and said that i should post this somewhere else, so I suppose this topic is over  |

point is, he wants it to be more easier of access and visible to control
its my fault cause i used my old theme that used a bright background without taking notice and just slammed a dark bg in, so i apologize.
the text may seem large but that's something to do with your screen size and the header image can be smaller due to some mix-ups when someone says the top they think its above the image so i guess it should be smaller
