and another thing: i just looked how many people are online, and in the whos online list i see not only the names but also the activities of the person, eg who is editing his email options, whos writing a private message, whos looking up user information and so on.
i have to admit i dont know if this is new, but i think it is, well, critical in terms of privacy

I'm going to have to agree.
However, I am going to withhold criticism until I get a better sense of what changes are planned in the future.
I would seriously like to suggest skins so that we can change the um ugly colours.

In reply to: In reply to: i have to admit i dont know if this is new, but i think it is, well, critical in terms of privacy You're right, you don't know. Sorry you don't like the site. I'm sure you can find an archive of the old one somewhere for you and make a print-out to hug or something... 
Nice reply from an owner/mod. The initial post may have been a little rough but how about something alittle more constructive from you?

P.S If you are going to log onto the RC.com site as a mod how about leaving your parachute sig home. Dick.

Also being able to see how many stars people gave your pics... I thought that was decided as being best unknown?

And such features are common place at other forums, like cascadeclimbers.com.

In reply to: what is this? it looks like myfirstryatweb2.0.com its just a random loveless site. the colors are ugly, the forum is totally cluttered, i cant find anything. . a simphony in greyish mintgrenn and greyish light blue with some slightly yellow stuff. it makes my eyes hurt. the old site was perfect (apart from the performance problems) but this "thing"? It screams "please kill me, im living a live of pain" all over.
Perhaps if you give some time to get used to it, you might change your mind. I certainly felt the same way the first time I logged in to the old RC.com.

Pretty zippy here; definitely more usable than the old php forum at this time of day.
I don't like the "My Stuff" bar always occupying such prime real-estate. Why not move it to the right and let it, rather than forum content, be pushed off-screen.
Don't care about the colors. Forums are ugly in general. It feels like there could be a lot less trimmings and more content on the screen, though.
It's funny to see all the steam that this generates. You've changed to a better engine, and it's working pretty darned well. Plenty of time to improve it now that it's up and running.
Cheers to all involved.

The lack of strong lines and dull color make it kinda hard to read along.
Also, the reply box....that I'm writing in now, is smaller than a notecard. This box should damn near fill the window.
Also, the mouse-over drop down menus made it easier to jump from forum to forum without loading an index page to do so.
It's cool that you all are trying to work on the site and upgrade it....but I think there are some serious issues with this new version (much like the last one, which got pulled back cause we all hated it)
If your going to leave the site syle like this, then there should be some user options to skin it so it's easier on the eyes.
Thanks,
Jim

In reply to: In reply to: P.S If you are going to log onto the RC.com site as a mod how about leaving your parachute sig home. Dick. Mitt, Looks like you're a bit short on the humor department. I'll allow you this one personal attack, but suggest you read the forum rules. If you have constructive feedback, by all means give it. We're pretty hard skinned and will do our best to respond and help where we can. That being said, don't for a second think we're push-overs that did this to listen to your verbal abuse. Be nice, and we'll be the same right back at you. 
Here's my beef with the new site. Some skydiving clown is now owner/moderator, and drops in with some early condescension. How about quoting the rules for me again, asswipe?

^^damn... and we *still* dont have trophies.
as for reading the rules...
"We reserve the right to delete, ***edit****, or move posts at our discretion. "
little stars**** are mine.
that's a classic one. *always* fun. resistence is futile.

I'd find a picture of Mitt with a dunce cap on, sitting in the corner....but we can't embed pics, so what's the point?
Well, considering all I know about the "owner" I read in his own words on this page...I share the sentiments of the_mitt and caughtinside.
You sir, are a royal jerkoff.
If you're the owner, and feel the need to be so rude to the members of your site...maybe you should hire someone to do your PR, for you.

No kidding? that's pathetic. I mean, only a total piece of shit would stoop to something so petty when someone does something like, oh, I don't know, voice an opinion? Sad.
"Shut it. You like the new site because we say so."
see you guys later, I guess!

In case any of our new overlords give a shit what anyone thinks: caughtinside is totally right. Time outs or anything like that for the sorts of posts above is infantile bullshit. (And if this is really indicative of possible changes to the moderation policy, I may not be posting here as much as I used to.)
Oh: and skydiving is a silly joke of a "sport". (It's almost as bad as trad climbing.)

Total crock of shit. The OPs post was fine. Your response was totally unacceptable, as an owner of the site. You look like a complete ass right now. If you want your site to be successful, you would do well to refrain from posting to it.
