In regards to my Forum I created I just hope V-Singular does not think I made the Sub Forum out of spite or hard feelings. I made it so I can keep in touch with the heart of the community... which is you lot My friends.

There is no means of private contact so I have been unable to discuss my thoughts and concerns with V-singular personally, and I'm scared he would think I'm being stupid. I love the forums new look but feel it has slightly pushed out the more established members of the forum.

I know most of us Established members of the forum would not care if the forum format was basic as long as we can navigate and post easily,  and I am hoping that some of the little issues we have in regards to the forum will be fixed and I'm sure they will in near future.

I agree girl. I feel like I'm new all over again. Things just don't feel right anymore, not to mention, I lost all my pm's, and I was still chating with my friends on it.  ..I mean, I hate to complain, but I just want to be able to come back to this forum, and stay for hours, chating, laughing, and having fun, until it was time for bed. But now, it's pretty dull, and I spend  just 20 mins or less now, on this website. Imo, this forum feels like any other forum on the internet now, which is a huge disappointment to me. D; (sorry if I sound to harsh, I just miss the old site. Never thought I would. )

@SRG -You’re so right in your comment about feeling like a Newbie again I agree with that 100%

I feel the need to express myself here not just for me but for my fellow Forum Members, I’m unsure if the following will be taken the wrong way but let me assure you, that I don’t mean to upset anyone.

 I’m saying it because I CARE about this forum , I personally feel I have contributed a lot around here over the 3 years whether or not that was appreciated I still done it selflessly because I hold some sentiment for this place. There are many great members who have contributed to this forum who feel the same as I.

But I feel that some of the forum changes should be looked into again and assess if changes could be made to make the forum more user friendly, and tailor the forum to try suit the member’s needs. This is not Facebook or Twitter... but funny enough it’s adopting some or the trade mark features for those sites (rating comments etc) I personally feel that’s an unnecessary feature and  I think most members would much rather PM to replace that. If it's not broken don't fix it (as they say)

I know we have to move with the times but what is wrong with keeping some form of consistency when it comes to the actual FORUM, I don’t think many people here would have grumbled if the forum remained to be similar to the old one .

We don’t want gimmicks, we just want a place where we can talk about the game we love (easily, with minimal effort) and if anything just provide the community with the much needed features that we have requested (more Moderators, Ignore features and so on)

Now I would not have minded the fact that some of the threads I spent hours working on became useless wastes of time, If I returned to a forum that was not so time consuming (getting logged out randomly, automatically scrolling to bottom of the page, Age verification after signing in, no PM system.. to name a few) but these issues often put me off coming to a forum I care a great deal about.

V-Singular if your reading this please don’t take offence, you know I hold a lot of respect for you, and I have always been willing to help you out in any way I can, and understand this forum is still a work in progress.  But I feel that a lot of us here would really appreciate a forum that’s more simple and easy to navigate much like the old forum.

I agree with this 100% Ayngel its a very balanced analysis.

We don't hate new comers. Our only problem is with the new people who come on and troll.
