The new Forums are Awful | Forums

[Johkr]

So you actually want us to zoom in every time we make a post? Instead of just changing it once on the forum so nobody has to bother with it? I'm sorry but this is pretty ridiculous if you ask me. A forum should be easy to work with, that's the exact opposite

It is one solution to a problem. You also wouldn't have to do it every time as it would stay zoomed in. "CTRL + Mouswheel" also works. I agree this is not ideal. I'll be honest, as this is a new forum for me, I have no idea how one would change that. It's something I would need to look into. I can read it just fine, but I could see how some may find that an annoyance.

And the font of the posts itself is too small too imo...If I'm reading a whole thread this is really bothering....If this doesn't change, you guy's are just forcing me (and I hope alot of other people) to just make my posts in a larger font. Wich would be pretty ridiculous.

As we've said numerous times, everything is being looked at. From format, to font size, to everything. We do have a priority, and things like account linking and logins were on the top of that list. As we are moving forward, things like this are going to be looked into.

And when is this Image Verification going away? My post count is back up and I still need to do this every time?

This was a part of a forum wide security. I would recommend make a few more posts, logging in & out, then trying again. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Indeed. It goes away based on activity since the start of the captcha settings introduction, not total post count. A few days of normal activity should see it gone.

For me the text is actually too big. I have to scroll around way too much. It would be absolutely horrible if it was made even bigger than it is now.
So obviously making the font larger for everyone wouldn't be an ideal solution.

the load times can be rather large for the forum even with good internet

You can optimise what is and isnt displayed in your user settings if you find it too slow for you.

Agreed. The font is fine for me, and I assume lots of people are ok with it since there isn't more complaining.

Apparently there's already a 'Jolan' in the Uplay accounts, so here I am now, JolanXBL. Don't mind the Captcha, it is what it is.
Any chance of adding the option to switch themes per account? The simple browns was much nicer on the eyes.

Check my sig links, you can still be Jolan as you were on the RL forums by switching your displayed name.

As for themes, I dont have any info on that at the moment i'm afraid. And captcha DOES stop after a period.

Apparantly JoeRegular my RedLynx username is already in use on these forums and it won't let me use it. Any chance someone can look into this? It's possible I made the ID ages ago for another game and forgot or maybe someone else is posting under it?

Because you're pressing Add button. Instead press "Edit" and then change to RedLynx nick.
