Change.. for the better..?
« on: June 14, 2014, 03:33:01 PM »
I have notice some changes here in the B-B community that to some people might seem minor...
 but to me the minor things make a big difference.

1. Being able to change your name freely has been disabled (Lame)

2. Having to use a special size gif as your avatar (What happened to having 300x300 gifs?)

3. The lack of google chrome support using Smiley's (I know you can put the codes in manually but this still bugs me in away because the little things make a difference)

Its like the things we use to be able to do to make this community unique and special is now fading slowly... it sucks. :|

I hardly think those minor issues could make a community die.
We're hundred big steps away from being like Google, after all.

I do agree with you on the Google Chrome problem.

The Profile Name change was blocked because of abuse of it.   If you want to change your name, an Admin or Mod can do it for you, you must request it now.

People were pretending to be eacht other anyway.
Just look a xfire, and you'll see what I mean.

Difference is, this is not Xfire, and that shouldn't be allowed here, as it creates problems.

Ya but it was a neat function to be able to change your name and not a lot of forums would do it (for free). Which I felt B-B trying to stand out from other if not sim8lar Bully fan sites.

But I don't wanna focus too much on name changing because that i s just one out of 3 issues I an having with B-B.

I like change don't get me wrong, but only when the change is for the better. Like instead of taking things away from members, why not add things to keep it entertaining?

1. Being able to change your name freely has been disabled (Lame)
I never even noticed but I can honestly say I'm glad that changed. It was very annoying seeing numerous unknown names pop up frequently and trying to figure out who the hell these people were.

2. Having to use a special size gif as your avatar (What happened to having 300x300 gifs?)
I don't feel like looking for the exact post but AJ changed this when the new layout rolled out because the pictures were causing the site to slow down for some members.

3. The lack of google chrome support using Smiley's
It never used to be derpy but I am surprised that issue hasn't been fixed yet. It doesn't bother me too much since typing them out isn't hard to do and I don't even use Chrome.

Its like the things we use to be able to do to make this community unique and special is now fading slowly... it sucks. :|
You should look at the bigger picture of why this place is special and not judge solely based on the features on this forum. :)

This is just a test comment to see if it doesn't show, because I use Chrome...


OK for some reason, I literally have to copy the image location for it to work...

It's better than using Firefox. Every time I use Firefox on BB, it says "(Not Responding)" on the bar at the top

Oh, Ha-Ha-Ha.....FireFox does that a lot (the Not Responding bar)....I usually have to wait when it does that.
