I mean its not really organized as well, There is the sub communities, but I am not of the whole 'wall' thing, and after much scrolling it tends to lag my browser. I do like the fact I have a profile though, and can receive messages.
Maybe I just need to get used to it? What do you guys think of the new style?
I have nothing against reddit but I don't use it because I am much more comfortable with traditional forums. The few times I have tried to use reddit it has always seemed that the first few comments that are insightful or funny always get a ton of up votes and then its just a giant circle jerk of those few posts making it hard for new posts to be read by anyone.
I suppose it is good for times that you don't have a long time to read but those people seem to have less of an impact with their votes because the things they will be reading are the things already voted on just like you said.
I am glad you can change it to recent post style but I feel like if there is a lot of responses I will be missing a ton of posts in either mode.
I don't know, I guess I need to get used to it as well.
Not a fan of it myself, it doesn't feel like a forum, really not sure who thought this was a smart move but i would have to disagree with them completely, you can almost get forum functionality back if you default the display to recent instead of best but you have to keep redoing it for every URL so i might just have to greasemonkey something together, there are reasons i dont use reddit, i dislike the way its presented and it makes it annoying as hell to read with replies to a comment being posted with that comment instead of in a traditional chronological order and layout
I'd love to hear what specifically makes finding content difficult. One of the goals of this is to make discovery easier, and to make better use of your time.
We're in the early stages, so we're excited to watch this experience take shape based on feedback.
I find it a little weird as I feel like I don't see the upvotes as cleary I liked the green and red colors.
Now I already think this format won't work, like at all. But the only way I can see it having a chance if there are large, noticable dividers between "topics". What I mean is I expect there will still be a General Forum, Dominion Forum, Fan Art/Fan Fiction, ect.
Because otherwise, the smaller boards are going to be drowned out instantly.
I just in general hate it I liked where I could pick a forums section and just see the new posts now its the same ones everyday because they are popular and I never see new content. This is due to the fact I don't want to scroll page after page for something newly posted.
