What the fuck guys? · 4:10am Oct 28th, 2014
Why is it every time Knighty updates the site, to make it better, everyone snaps and gets pissed off at him? Is it because... uh... you like having and old and outdated site? Did you all like some of the problems with the older versions? Are these new features not cool and handy? Is it because there's always something that needs to be fixed after each update, which eventually gets fixed? I mean seriously, if you all oppose change this much, then get out of the twenty first century.

It's because of all the errors, everything that's a pic is broken actually
I'm only annoyed because I was just getting used to the old one

I don't get it. The only problem I got was broken pictures that lead to Deviantart. Everything else seems fine...
I dunno, maybe I'm just dumb though. Could you clarify?
ponies will kick and scream when taken away from their traditions.
I can't access the new emoticon menu through my ipad.
Also, the new YouTube feature says that this link is not a valid URL.

If I do it manually however...
WTF?
The lack of testing is quite annoying.

2559859 Both seem to be fixed now.
2560311
For now. Just wait. I WILL find other problem...
But thanks for notifying me.
2559838 Which he is/was working to fix.
2559842 Yeah, I understand that, and maybe he could give us more time in between updates, but think. If you did something you thought was really cool, wouldn't you want to share right away?
2559856 This is true.
2559859 Okay, but is that REALLY a bad thing, or could you learn to cope?
2559981 How exactly can they test it, though? Sure it would be useful, but I doubt they have a spare site lying around for then to test on. XD
2560236 Really. Are you serious?
2560771
It just confuses me. I don't hate this update. I just don't fucking understand/become confused by it.
2560771
If you do this stuff for a living, then you figure out how to do it properly.
Yes, testing a live system is hard, but those who do it know how.
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past--or the present--are certain to miss the future."
2560771 Yep. Autistic people generally prefer routine, and as we all know this site is just full of sperglords.
2560774 Ah, yeah, me too.
2560881 But he doesn't do it for a living (or did I miss something?). It's a site HE made for US to use, and if he wanted to, he could take it away. I think we could at least show him some respect for giving us all a place to meet and post poni stories.
2560933
2560948 Ah. That makes sense.
2559848 No, I'm just asking why everyone gets so mad about this stuff. It's going to get fixed and it's for our good.

Now you know my pain.

He is making money by utilizing us by providing a service we enjoy.
Yes he is not making millions off of this site, but there is some level of revenue flow from advertising.
2561287 My point is if he had never made the site in the first place, we wouldn't be here.
2561346
Well, we wouldn't be here. But we would be on another site that would offer pony fan made content.
My main point is if you are Monitizing something, then you really need to treat it like a professorial product. There is an exchange of money going on here and each and everyone of us are being used to make that money.
2561381 Okay, I see your point, but again I say, we wouldn't have this site. Sure we'd be somewhere else, but we'd have no site dedicated to stories about the ponies we all know and love.
Plus, you can just turn ad-block on.
The little drop down thingie that comes out of the notification banner is really nice.
2561429 Yeah it is
(Gets on FimFic for the first time in a week) Oh look, FimFiction has changed the mobile layout, again. Its not that bad as before.
2561844 Mmm hmm
One of the most recent changes took away my ability to read the site on my mobile phone, something that I've been able to do just fine for over a year, and used to do very often. As for benefits of this change? Didn't notice any so far.
I'm really not a fan of changes for changes' sake.
