the old theme with the update looked a little broken but with penzonews it's all fine now. i actually like the new look. if i were pressed to find an issue, then i'd say that the new sidebar takes too much space away from the posts in some threads, but that really doesn't make a lot of a difference.

I'll see if we can do something to make it smaller.

Yes and the penzonews theme also has all the other issues I've noticed fixed. Psynews logo normal size, the standard login is available etc. So yeah changing it to default and temporarily disable the current default one will solve a lot of headache :)

As a bonus it is a very nice color scheme for the eyes. Everything feels more clear and easy to read.

This new theme + the forum update I suppose, has the same snappy browsing experience as an app. A bit like the reddit app.

Yeah it does feel a lot smoother, especially on mobile.

I have a remark about his "stuck in mobile version" thing.

Turns out I was too (at least I think)! But I was able to zoom so far out that I practically didn't notice - only recently I realized that the navigation links at the top didn't work anmyore ... drove me mad ... almost wanted to post a bug report for myself ... then I found out that Penzo did a new default skin "Penzonews" and to that one I switched now and that fixed it :)

So: thanks @Penzoline :D ... and I'm now on the default skin aswell

Seconded. Absolutely blocking lots of the view and is very intrusive.. 

These pop-up etc. ads are totally annoying and will become a psynews killer . org

@RTPand the owner and mod people. This can not continue.

To each and everybody who saw these ads: PLEASE USE BRAVE BROWSER ... I am using it and I saw no ad, zero, zilch ... and I had not any adblockers to configure...

...if you would not have called it out, I would NEVER have noticed...

...you better use Brave anyways because for Web 4.0 you will need crypto integration, which Brave has built in (Ethereum B) )...

...and if you really fancy ads (who does :rolleyes: ), you can do that in Brave but you get paid for it in BAT tokens which you can donate us seamlessly with the button at the top, in the address bar ... or go over to Ektoplazm - Basilisk accepts them aswell :)

...anyway...

By the way, these badges are terrifying, I don't like them...

I do find a badge system cool, but only for the "peculiar" stuff that happens here, you know

this new rank system seem to have destroyed the previous completely while not offering anything interesting as an alternative. possible to go back?

not that it matters in the slightest, i just miss the older system while the new system just raises eyebrows like mr Sphinx pointed out.

Yeah, ranks on a forum are fucking stupid and just create a useless hierarchy (the only "useful" being an indicator who the mods/admins are).
I like it how they've done it on the REAPER forums. They have the admins of course, everyone else is "human being with feelings" :D

Ranks are ditched :P

But unfortunately our custom titles have been removed too ... so I can't be bad 2 the bone anymore :(

I just want to make one thing clear: All the updates to ranks, achievements and whatever come with the updates and are automatically "on." It takes manual labour to turn them off or customize them.

Also the problem with the new "rank" syste is that it's based on "points" and I have no idea what these points are.

Anyone remember the original ranks?

The CleanCut forum theme should be removed. It's buggy and could potentially be exploited. For example it over-rides the privacy setting regarding online visibility. And it has some other formatting errors as well, which could be indicative of underlying code issues.

It could be that it’s just a localized view I get, and the privacy setting/invisible is only bypassed visually for myself when logged in. But still it looks buggy with some other stuff as well such as this, notice that website url on my profile and the other fields are nulled and instead display ”array” text. As well as displaying the ranks that were disabled. :)

I've taken care of this.
