    Am i the only one?

    So it is just announced that the white Xbox One is coming with SO. The console was, since it is shown with the developer edition, super sexy looking and one off my most anticipated tech devices which i wanted to have.

    Am i crazy in wanted to sell my black one to purchase a white one ?

    Please don't come in with "if they sold a white one first you wanted a black one" cause i honestly think the white one looks sick. And i am not going to exchange my black PS4 for a white one so there is that.

    Wouldn't think you're the only one but you are in the minority.

    And yes,you are kwazy but that's nothing to do with liking the forums Am I The Only One? :)

  5. What is it you like about them?

    As far as I can see layout, loading time, and navigation has gotten worse but they've added back the missing feature of image posting.

    I don't LIKE them, don't hate them...I am not having loading problems. The first week I had issues, things have gotten a bit more stable since. Have a feeling there are more refinements on the way. Some handle change with ease...others don't.

    This forum looks cleaner, and you can even add pictures to your post. But the forum pages load way slower than before the update. You're sitting at your screen while Microsoft does

    ......

    .....

    .....

    And coming from a site run by the largest software company in the world Am I The Only One? :)

    They should checkout Planet Coaster forums, run by Frontier. Now that site is way better than this site. And of course, we can talk about if I have a powerful PC stuff. Their forum site has smilies too, and actual Frontier developers and Frontier staff who
    regularly contribute. And the community their seems to be funner and friendlier than on here. This forum just feels like a ghost town now. I mean I don't even come on it daily anymore, only like twice a week.

    Another reason I don't come on here much anymore is because I enjoyed the forum levels, all the cool people were level 5, including me, and my signature which listed my PC specs. Nope, no signatures on this forum. There could be, but it's too much effort
    and time consuming, waiting for this website's pages to ...... ....... load..... . And I have Vodafone 100mb/s download and 10mb/s upload speed and live in a major NZ city.

    Someone who designed this site must LOVE making ..... load screens. This new forum is filled with them. Well at least it's not the rotating circle o load screen, they went with ..... ....... >>>. It feels like you're going somewhere with the .... >
    ...... it's funny at first, but it's a huge inconvenience. ....... I give up with this site. But I'll sometimes come on here, and make some colloquial comments. Otherwise this place just feels like a morgue.

    That's vBulletin which used to be one of the best forums available. Sadly they sold the company about 5 years ago and their devs left to start their own project (Xenforo), and vBulletin 5 is complete crap.

    I don't know what they call this monstrosity, it's more like they're trying to combine a forum and blog system into one. It might be more acceptable if pages didn't take so long to load and the thread listing pages didn't look like blog posts. The mobile
    responsive version is also pitiful and not intuitive at all. As is it is now, this is by far the worst "forum" they've had over the years.

    Am I The Only One?

    You may mock smileskybird for posting "colloquial" comments, but they had a point when referring to this place as a morgue. Prior to the update, I would frequently check the topics that I was interested in, arranged as they were in their own sub-forum. Now
    it's just a mish-mash of whatever gets updated with no means of finding specific topics (at least when using the Xbox One browser). Once upon a time, I'd take the time to post thoughtful comments about my favorite games (like ReCore, or Deus Ex Mankind Divided),
    but now it's anybody's guess where those threads have gone. Hardly a motivation to keep visiting, so I don't.

    Guess you could say this is my broken spirit haunting the place -_-

  14. I have noticed somewhat of a trend when it comes to these types of threads.

    People who don't like the new forum will state, however briefly, why they don't like them. The people who do like the new forum though just tend to say that they like them and don't state why.

    I think your are most definitely in the minority, I used to come to these forums every day (during lunch break at work) but now I am just losing interest. Like people there doesn't seem to be any order.

    I know the old forums weren't prefect, but they were a country mile better than this.
