theRPGsite redesign.

When I force a second line by shrinking the window size, only the top of the second line is visible. This means that the section has a fixed height and the font your browser is using does not properly fit within that height. Which browser?

IE doesn't follow web standards. Apparently, it does not understand that CSS tag.

Mozilla Firefox.

I found the height limitation and removed it. Should be fine now. Hopefully, it won't screw anything else up.

Thank you.

It was hard to read for some people, so I changed it.

Much better, IMO, without the sharpie highlighting. I'd love to have the like button back, too.

Sometimes I want to say I agree with something, but feel like posting "I agree" is superfluous.

I don't even remember a like button.

Hey Brett, good job so far, much better performance.

Now can we get all the old smiley's back, especially theRPGsite specific ones? Preferably the old versions of the standard smileys too, these new ones kinda suck.

not on the old version, but there was a like button for a day or two while the site was up after the upgrade.

EDIT: there's actually a thumbs up/down thingy I didn't notice until now.

crkrueger · May 05, 2016, 01:53:08 PM

To be honest I never saw the point of a "Like" or a "+1" or any of that.

If you care enough about the topic to voice agreement, then voice agreement. If saying "This!" or "I agree" is more than you're willing to put in, then the value of your input is pretty much useless.

Who cares whether a post gets +1297 or -150. Is that supposed to prove it correct or incorrect? Argue your point.

All any form of "like" does is enable the kind of mass passive aggressiveness and appeal to the "me-too" authority logical fallacy that allows for the type of crowd-consensus that is turning the internet and all of civilization into Freshman Year Forever.

I just added the thumbs up/down system for those who like that sort of thing. If not, just ignore it. (I have to find better-looking thumbs though.)
