It'll take some time to get used to but it looks fine overall. I just wish that the user is shown on top rather than the bottom of the post.

Some people didn't like the previous forum layout versus the very first forum layout. But we all got used to it eventually. So it'll just take time to adjust to this kind of layout. :lol:

The only thing I don't like about it is that I can't see how many replies are on the thread, while I'm on it. Now I have to be in the section part to see how many replies the thread got. I also don't like how we can't do the [hr*][/hr] code.??

I like the format overall cause it looks more professional. The colors are pretty pleasing to the eye. The HS blue just isn't very pleasing.? I do like how we can see how many times someone edited their post and when. I just don't love the things mentioned above. The hr code isn't a big deal since I already tested how many underscores needed to fill a line of text.

Wow that was long. Well that's my two cents LOL.

Who knew Forums is not an official PIMD account? :p

Also I missed out on taking screenshots of old forum layout; just saw this update :(
 
Wait we cant use the hr code 

It will take some getting used to but its not bad.

The green for mods tho needs redoing. Its so damn bright i cant even read whicb mod has commented.
 
The mods should have a green bar on their name like pimd has a red one. And their names should be black? just think that would be easier to red. Looking at forevers post and hit hurts my eyes lol.
 
Also. Having the date something was posted was helpful to see if it was an old thread that got bumoed we could avoid it. Now every thread looks brand new.
 
I think this format looks very neat. I like it so far. Only thing is it shows the time of the last post instead of when the thread was started?? I prefer it the other way personally.

Hey everyone,

Tomorrow we're going to be rolling out an updated forum theme, as well as a few new features to improve your forum experience.



In addition to the updated forum theme, there are a few changes to make it easier than ever to understand threads.

Announcements will have a Speaker icon, as well as a red-tinted background.

Stickied Topics will have a Pin icon, as well as a blue-tinted background.

Locked Announcements and Stickies will have diagonal lines.

Locked Posts will have diagonal lines and/or a Lock icon.

Unread Posts icons will appear dark purple in colour,

Read Posts icons will appear light purple in colour.



Posts themselves will also look quite a bit different, providing a more streamlined user profile above each post.

This profile box contains:
- Username
- Post Count
- Post Date
- Online Status Indicator
- Delete/Edit/Quote buttons
- Report Button (see below)



You will also be better able to identify members of the A Thinking Ape team, as well as our Moderators by a uniquely coloured profile box.

In addition to this coloured profile box, A Thinking Ape team members will have an Ape Icon beside their username, as well as their position listed below.

Over the next few days we'll be working to get a number of different members of our team on the forums, and will transition away from our existing pimd_admin/pimd_community naming scheme to a more personal one. Stay tuned for details.

Reporting


With this update, we're implementing a trial run of forum-based reporting. When you see a post that violates the Forum Code of Conduct tap the report icon on that post, select the appropriate report reason, provide details (when necessary), and send it our way. We'll review these reports regularly.

Our goal is to better address forum violations and create a more welcoming and friendly environment.

What about notification/marker on threads we have posted on? Bring back that feature so we can see on threads page which thread we have commented on or vice versa.

Also the moderator's color code is now way TOO bright and painful for eyes. Please fix this @pimd_community, thanks.

SUPPORT!!!
 
As mentioned earlier, the moderator's names needs to be redone maybe.. Change the color to a more dull green for forums or a green bar like rude said️ . However, I feel they should keep their Green names in Forums so we know they are a Mod.

Having dates were helpful. I liked it better when it had the dates instead of the time the last comment was made.

The isn't really a big deal I'll just put down bunch of underscores ?

I don't really like how people are now able to see how many times we have edited the post we made. I feel like this can cause people to make mean comments about how many times they have changed the post and such.
