For a moment I thought I've fallen off the planet but yes, oh definitetely, I prefer this (''after'') than the previous (''before'') way of posting. Also, it's fresher and more ''IN'' or ''IT''! Yay

!

Not a big fan

**stumblingfeet** · 05-22-2010, 12:32 PM

Whoa! Looks different!

I thought the website had been shut down or something like that.

**ctjcad** · 05-22-2010, 12:54 PM

..in the previous version, when we want to do an advanced search for a topic or keyword, there would be a list of sub-forums where we can select...Now, we don't have that feature..

*nevermind, found it under the Search Single Content Type tab..

**cooler** · 05-22-2010, 01:01 PM

me woke up late, again and i had to rub my eyes twice. I thot bc/bf got hacked or got sucked into a bigger bulletin site.
Oh well, the world keeps on evolving and i need to tag along i suppose.

Look smooth and easy on the eyes.. I dont think it is copying Facebook.. just enchancing its looks. Im still not used to it... add friends features? is this a Facebook or Friendster?

**ctjcad** · 05-22-2010, 01:36 PM

..in Advanced Mode, when typing long post/msg, once we get to a certain line or length, when we want to put our cursor on a line to edit, the cursor would jump back up. It's almost as in facebook when we type a long msg, the cursor would jump back up rather than stay at that specific line..

- No one is saying BC is copying facebook

...just the layout & colors theme mainly resemble that of fb..
- The Add Friend feature has been there before in the previous edition>was Buddy List, if not mistaken..

Maybe the first thing Kuwn should to ease the confusion is to change the vBulletin banner to badminton central?

**LD rules!** · 05-22-2010, 02:01 PM

this is my first post under the new system, I tried to log in this morning, but the server was being upgraded. I prefer the old system, I still need to explore and have a look.

Maybe Kwun picked the colours and design to look futuristic, like the Nanospeed series, the colours and design will eventually grow on all of us.

Testing Smilies

**LD rules!** · 05-22-2010, 02:14 PM

Hi Mods, any chance we could get a poll going here or something ? Just to see what everyone is thinking about the new upgraded forum, so far I have found it to be quicker, but still getting used to it.

Three options

Yes
No
Still unsure

***kwun*** · 05-22-2010, 02:16 PM

guys. the forum look is the default one that came with the software. i still need time to improve it. it is a bit pre-mature to say whether you like it or not since it will for sure change in the immediate future.

the best thing that you can do is to give me feedback and let me know what needs to be improved.

**ctjcad** · 05-22-2010, 02:25 PM

i've seen some comments about the layout being a bit wide and texts/fonts a bit small...can you run a test changing those 2 items, just to see??..or you need to shut down the server for a couple hrs to change them?..
