I still like smaller fonts for mobile. On my s7e qhd, i see only 4+ threads with full screen browsing.

Maybe that's the app-sy layout way, but i prefer the old school /practical view of more threads on display

Go back to the old colour scheme ASAP please!

It just looks like another generic message board now

I didn't have a problem mobile viewing the previous site at all

post a thread.. maybe it was always like this and I never noticed since I've never started a thread.. Do I need a higher post count?

Yeah, you need to be here a certain amount of time and have a certain amount of posts. I believe it's 300 posts and 6 months?

At least, that it what the rule used to be. I'm not sure if anything changed.

Maybe you have different perms like a junior since you only have 2 posts and it would make sense you can't post a thread in gaming until you're a normal member.

Maybe I'm just an idiot for not realizing this, but, how do I edit my posts? I have a post in the "52 games in 52 weeks"-thread but there is no edit button next to my post, is it supposed to be like this?

Maybe I'm just missing it, but is there a way to get the likes-counter to show up again under folks's handles?

I have the same issue. I saw others being able to edit theirs, so maybe it's because we are Neo members ?

There’s a ... next to ‘Report’ on your post. Tap that to open a sub-menu. Select ‘Edit’ and away you go.

Thanks for the reply but sadly there's isn't. I guess editing really isn't available to neo members 5 minutes after posting.

It is there but like I said only for 5 minutes and then it disappears. I've had an error a few days ago where it said that I can only edit a post within 5 minutes of posting. I don't know if this was done intentionally.

I miss being able to click on the thread title to go to the first post and the GAF symbol to go to the latest unread post.

That's strange because I can still edit my post above.


Clicking it allows me to edit and I've checked on mobile too and I can edit there.

-I think there should be a list of the current mod/admin team somewhere like it used to be.

Edit: I just tested the edit function and it works for me thankfully.

-We used to have tabs at the top linking all 4 public forums, can we get that back please?

It's there but they hid the link to the memberpage feature:

We have tabs for the 2 forum types (Gaming and Off-Topic) in the navigation bar. If you're browsing the site via mobile you have to click the hamburger icon to show the links. Community boards have to be reached via their individual parent board (e.g. Gaming or Off-Topic).

Like I said, I'm sure it's a ''Neo Member'' issue. You seem to be a "Member", so yeah, it works for you.

I'd like to know, if this was done intentionally, as we have a lot of Neo Members here who surely would like to know. :)

I'm loving the floating navigation bar and the hamburger menu. Just need to retrain myself to not go to the top of the page.

Watched threads seems to load pretty slowly though?

Thank you for the link. It should be public as most of the forum members would not be aware of it since it is hidden. Also it is missing some people like Gromph Gromph for example.

I'm aware that we have both gaming and off topic links at the top but I'd like to be able to go to any forum page from anywhere (that's how it used to be and neogaf members are used to that in addition to it being an easy thing to do). I don't like that while in off topic page I have to go first to the gaming forum page (or the main neogaf page) before I can click on the gaming community link for no reason.

I like the cleaner new name/tag display. Bit of a shame to lose the customizable region, but that would ultimately end up being abused as a make-your-own-tag anyway.

And a big thumbs up for removing the persistent likes display. I think I can dig this system 👍

Neo Members are unable to edit posts after 5 minutes. This is by design for the time being - we know it's a huge inconvenience for users in some threads and we apologize for that. With any luck we'll have a less-intrusive alternative to that security policy in place in the near future.

Aaah, I missed that. Yeah, make sense and looks like Palliasso cleared that up above.

bitch I'm taking calls.
If your tag had html then yes, all tags containing html could not be migrated we were informed. If it did not have html then i have no idea.
Well that is absolute garbage. Guess it’s just gone then.

Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks mysterious benevolent admin :)

I had an issue with pasting in youtube URLs the other day. I was writing a long-ass post with lots of embeds, and I'd copy a URL over from another window (with the &t=xyz timecode FWIW) only to have it paste the previous copy-pasted URL instead.

Happened a couple of times, and I eventually had to click-drag the URLs over from their address bars. I guess there's some javascript intercepting the ctrl+v in order to format stuff nicely during paste?

Repro steps:
  1. Ctrl+C URL A
  2. Ctrl+V URL A
  3. URL A added to post
  4. Ctrl+C URL B
  5. Ctrl+V URL B
  6. URL A added to post
  7. Click-drag URL B
  8. URL B added to post
  9. Ctrl+C URL C
  10. Ctrl+V URL C
  11. URL B(? may have been A) added to post
Also, would it be possible to turn the speech bubble icons next the subforum names on the top-level page into links? I keep wanting to click on them instead of the 'Gaming Discussion' / 'Off-topic Discussion' text.

The ignore feature is still broken. Ignored members' posts still show as normal and when I click Ignore on their profile, I get 'You are already ignoring this member, You may only ignore 1000 people.' but my ignore list seems to be wiped.

Just letting you guys know replying on mobile is painfully slow and laggy
I can write a whole sentence before it actually responds.

I had this issue too, my ignore list was empty when I tried to view it. Just add a someone to your ignore list to get it working again. That cured it for me.

-Can we get a "reply" button at the top of the page?
also there is no advanced options for the reply? All I have is the quick reply at the bottom of the page.

-I know I missed the poll but I would like to state that I would like the font to be smaller. The posts and the font all look much bigger than usual, so I would like a smaller font please.

Hardware and browser?
For what it’s worth, I think it might just be your browser or your phone, or a combination of both. I’m using Safari on iOS (iPhone X on 11.2.5) and its working fine for me. No lag at all.

no, I don't get a quick reply box. I just see a post reply tab, which when click it gives me an error page: -

https://www.neogaf.com/threads/mr-r...ein-bears-wednesdays-on-usa.1446368/add-reply

Oops! We ran into some problems.
This action is available via POST only. Please press the back button and try again.

/add-reply does not work for me either. But it is possible that the page is loading slowly for you and the quick reply box need more time to load.

EDIT: maybe the gifs in that page is slowing it down for you, if that is the case then I think the page components should get higher priority to load than images and gifs

What you may find with things like that is that it can sometimes take time to populate some items at the moment. I wasn't seeing the reply box either and because there had been issues with this type of thing previously, I just left it and the reply box did appear for me.

Try waiting until the page is fully populated, the same goes for missing buttons to Report, Like, etc.

I tried loading page 8 and that was fine. 9 does load eventually, but it takes forever, though it seemed that it had gone through fully beforehand. I think the embed in post #427 is what was causing the problem. Using Vivaldi as my browser if that has some bearing on things?

Tried that, I still get the "You may only ignore 1000 people" error when adding someone who wasn't previously on my ignore. I did have quite a number of people on ignore before the forum change, so maybe that borked it for me somehow? Oh well.

Lol yeah I’m in the same spot. The ignore list had to be quite massive for the forum to be bearable at that point.

Although you may well find that different browsers do it at slightly different speeds simply due to the nature of the browser, I'm not aware of it being significantly worse on any particular browser.

Working fine for me on Android Nougat / Chrome. Running on a Blackberry KeyOne (2Ghz Snapdragon 625).
