Opinions on the new shout box

Post by K73SK » Mon Nov 04, 2013 10:04 pm

I'm not putting a poll because I'd rather hear feedback straight up...

So what do you think of the new shoutbox. Do not just say "I don't like it", "I like it", etc. Give me actual reasons on what you like or don't like about it and why you preferred (or didn't prefer) the old one over the new one in regards to what you like or don't like.

I liked the old one better at first just because i was used to it. But now that i've played around with it and whatnot i'm digging it. I don't want the old one back anymore. The avatars showing up is freaking sweet, too.

I like that you can see the avatars in the shoutbox, but I HATE that mobile devices can't post twice unless the page is refreshed each time!

I definitely prefer the new sound to the older one, much more subtle, and it doesn't get in the way as much. As for the avatars, on the fence about them.

Well personally I'm digging the avatars and the easier mod tools that I shall describe to no one, only real problems are the distasteful appearance, and I think the chat sound is worse than the last (sounds like a fork tapping on glass). Other than that it's looking pretty good on my theme; it'll just take some getting use to.
it really do be like that tho

The avatars are cool, and the bigger space for messages is nice. Kinda odd not seein like a list of who's on though.

Then again I'm on my iPod and haven't experimented or nothin, so iunno if I'm just blind.

I like it.

You should be able to see the people on under the chat thing. But it's based off the hour I think so I found it a bit useless after you and JC left since it didn't really tell me y'all left for like, ever. :/

Well yeah I saw that, but it's way on the bottom of the screen whilst the box is up top.

The hour thing is kinda weird.

Click "In total there are 2 users chatting" on the shout box and it'll display the list for you. It's a link.
