The Official Anti - Change Thread ( the HFB Update thread)

[Prettyisland]

Everything's fixed for me, I'm really loving the changes:

This how the boards looked when I was lurker on these boards. Good times

 

[Ceremony]

The rot really set in around here when Page 2 stopped being a thing.

But you joined October 23, 2017? That means... it's been over 7 years since the change

Bro I started lurking in 2012 I think… get your affairs in order

Awwwww the nostalgy. Wasn't even lurking here but that default layout of vB/clones was everywhere. What I would give to make the internet like that again instead of this current social media must-login-to-see-and-oh-yeah-we-sell-your-info-too shenanigans.

Seems like HFBoards has lots of f*** ups and updates, usually both at the same time, compared to other forums.

 

[SEALBound]

I imagine there is still a lot to be done in terms of fine tuning the spacing, fonts, etc. None of the preferences take effect when you switch them either so that still needs to be worked on.

I would be incredibly disappointed if this was a final product.

 

[Z-Diddy]

wasn't sure if the site was hacked or something again... but this is like a time machine back to the early 90s with IIRC and MSN messenger vibes, looks very outdated...

How did you get yours to be black? I had it like that before the update yesterday and now it's back to light mode for me.

By default it's tied to your OS (or browser) settings; if your default is dark mode, it'll be in dark mode.

Xenforo does provide a way of forcibly switching that, but that may not be available to us until the theme reworking is done.

 

[SniperHF]

Site owners / techs are working again so you may see some more weird stuff before the day is out (slowness, theme changes, etc)

 

[BLNY]

I don't mind this look too much. It's a jarring change to be sure, but I use dark mode on everything.

 

[Avs2022]

We couldn’t have gotten a warning the site was going to be down? I spent a bunch of time trying to figure out if it was a browser issue yesterday.

Same here. First I cleared my cache, my cookies from the site. Was a little confused. Plus what else am I supposed to do while watching hockey?

 

[digmor crusher]

I love it, but then again I'm not a part of the whiny generation, still a pain to sign in still though.

 

[licanin]

Dark mode still doesn't work ? Or is it just me ?

Not going back through 16 pages but why

You could maybe read the first page

No thanks, I'm just going to blame @Bear of Bad News for any and all inconveniences. (such as... having to do actual work yesterday since the site was down...)

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

Mobiles rough right now to say the least

 

[TheLegend]

@TheLegend was bored earlier tonight, should of got on that! Or a @SoupNazi Chat GPT collaborative.

You woke me up for this????

There are consequences involved here....... but I'm gonna need to sleep on it more.

just tried. can confirm it’s a wildly different experience

Night mode really isn't bad.
The regular mode looks lame; although, I started to use night mode after the ~2018 switch because the white space for that version blew out my retinas.

Where would you guys go if this place shut down?

/hoc/

 

[SniperHF]

Added pages to top on mobile on the temp theme.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

It's a really jarring change honestly.

Well yes we went from software with 3 years of customizations to the stock style of the new version.
