Your First Thoughts on The New Forum... «123456...Next Go

There isn't a general category for this, so I'm gonna post it here. I'm interested in hearing what everyone has to say about these new forums. For me, I think the bright green background is just too much. Other than that so far I like it!

I can see a lot of abuse happening in the future with the agree/disagree/like buttons.

Also, I foresee a lot of "You're wrong, because my post has 22 likes and yours only has 5!"

I like it, I think that it is awesome to be able to voice our comments on the new site instead of waiting for the other forum to come back up. I also like they merged The Sims 3 and The Sims 4 usernames instead.

I really like the forums so far. I really love the fact that users no longer have to jump through a million hoops to get the display picture they want for their profile. That's probably my most favorite thing about these forums.

I'm also happy that the forums give you live updates on when someone replies to your thread, instead of having to repeatedly refresh the page to check.

Something I noticed, if above this thread you click on "The Sims 4", it brings you to some sort of weird page with just 2 discussions.

The agree disagree thingys kinda make nervous..
Forum might go a little meow meow beans. (see Community episode)

I really like the forum so far. It's very simple to understand and I like that we can upload any picture as our avatar.

I like the forum. Green is a pretty harsh colour on the eye, we see a lot more variants in green than any other colour because it's just so natural. At least that's what I learnt from design classes anyway, not that I paid much attention I don't think it's too bad though. I can't wait for more Sims 4 categories to be added though.

It'll take some time to get used to, but I do like that it's a lot faster than the old forum.

It's very............ green

I love that they are finally mobile optimized. That makes reading on my phone and tablet easier than before. However, it seems so much more cluttered now. There are so many posts on the first page that I feel a bit dazed when looking at it.

@Linnyxx17 Maybe just a touch too green...

Linnyxx17

oooo i see we can agree, disagree, like and laugh at someone's comment. yay its the sims facebook

I'm not liking these Agree/Disagree buttons. There already being abused. READ the post instead of just disagreeing with someone cause you don't like them. That is childish and stupid.

One thing I would like is a link at the bottom of each page that sends us back to the forum list.

Just so we wouldn't have to scroll up every time we're done reading a thread.

I like the forum so far. But how do I add an avatar?

Click on your name at the top of the page, then on your profile, press "Edit Profile" to the right, then on that page click "Change my Picture" in the list to the left.

I hope they take away the disagree but then there will be groups for disagree-ing/agree-ing for badges and so-called-fun. It's what happened on the old BBS.

joop123

I like it

jacqpinks

I really really like it, I had to disagree with you Gtompkins48 ♥ I am going to love the Disagree button

GabbyGirlJ

I like it for the most part. Still some things to adjust to.

chococat9

I like it.

shebc21

I like it but I miss my recent button that use to be at the top of the forum. I just needed to push the recent button and I would know what the latest people was talking about, the buttons are now changed to categories, discussions, activity and best of... I think that they are good but can't we have another one added, called most recent posts, or recent.

I really like the new forum... it's so neat... and I like all the little agree, ect buttons... Im sure they are gonna cause a lot of problems with a lot of the more immature players... but you win some/you loose some lol
