Unhappy Sorry, but the whole sites a mess!

Hello,
First, reseting the password is VERY hard to do...
I reset my pass on the site, but then had to do it again on the forum just to logon... :eek:

Interesting thing about the forum is you can't see it when you click on it.
It only shows the first 3 forums and the rest of your forum can not be seen.
I'm guessing it's trouble with an IFrame but I'm unsure.

I was able to access the forum by typing your sites name then "vbullet".

Also, I'm not sure the full list of bugs yet, but there are tons of them.
The Olderwarez search no longer works etc. When you click on a game name it just redirects you to all games.


The graphics are a little lacking as well, including the site overall and the smilies...but the new system looks like a possibility if the loads of bugs were worked out.

Sorry, but the old site was still A LOT better... :confused:
OK I'm done.

A lot of people already pointed that out. Note, though, that it's just a work in progress. Hopefully it'll look good in the end.

Naturally the old design was cleaner - everything that was a potential mistake in it got taken care of already (because it was in use for a long time and all the possible problems showed up).

With this new design, it's been activly in use for only a short time now and many problems are bound to show up sooner or later (it's not possible to test it all before it goes public - people do the strangest things and use the strangest tools to do those strange things with - and you simply can't predict it all).

Yes, absolutely. Damn all those people doing strange,, unpredictable things like clicking the "view last post" button, or pressing the "back" button on their browsers. And all the while using bizarre tools, such as Internet Explorer.

I sense sarcasm...

I agree with you. I don't like it at all. Forum AND the site looked much better before...

Don't you just love it when all the people start complaining about the same thing at the same time when it's pretty obvious changes are still to come? Ah well, probably something to be expected.. Meanwhile I'll be right here waiting patiently for further development

What they need to do first, is stop the site from looking unfinished. It's not that hard - the site itself doesn't span the screen so it sits there on the left side but because it uses white and has no borders, it feels like it's still loading even when it's done.

Center the site on-screen, give it a black border left and right and improve the title bar, and it would feel a whole lot better.
