A distressing trend I've noticed as of late... · 3:17pm Jun 6th, 2017
Okay, I just want to say my piece. I've noticed a lot of users insulting Knighty and the other staff users for the new changes around the site. That's not going to get you anywhere, and frankly makes you look like crying children. Now I will admit I'm not a fan of the new look or the way tags are now, but do you see me making a big fuss about it?
FIMfic's changed before, and Hell, it'll probably change again. And course there will be bugs along the way. It's web design people! It'll never be perfect first go around for any new change. Give it time, the bugs will be worked out. Hell, think most of them already have.
...Okay, rant over. Back to the usual for me.
Hey Brick I notice you can change the font and the height there, you can change this for you read the fictions now. XD
I get what you are saying, but what really bothers me is that... Well.... I use a phone and the new update is really not friendly to phone and tablet users. So, overall, we kinda have a right to complain because now it is a lot harder to use if you have a phone.knight, if you read this, make it more phone-user friendly pls.
I’m not a fan of the new look neither, but like Darwin said, “you either adapt or die”.
My brief opinion on this changes.

I don't have a problem with the new layout. Hasn't given me any real issues. Might depend on the phone or tablet used.

Might have to try that out...

You should try to configure as you like.
I will admit, there was some comments I had on that topic yesterday following the new update to the website Knighty did. I hope your not mad at me for when I did those comments ^^;

No, I think we were just all irritated Knighty sprung these changes on us without asking for our opinion first or giving no real warning.

-sigh- I know how that feels. it took me by surprise as well

Oh btw, a certain story is in the works. Just need access to an actual computer so I can really write it. Using a tablet to type, bit of a bitch let me tell you.
4561938
ah. I think I know what it is :D

Will include one unexpected guest character if I can manage it.
4561947
ok :)

Character I've been wanting to use for a long time, so... Fun. On another note, have you tried the new text to speech feature?
4561726
That depends on what type of phone. Which one do you have? I’m looking at it on my Samsung Note 4 and it’s laid out beautifully and is so much better than it was. I can imagine the smaller phones might be having more problems, but I haven’t asked anyone about that yet.
I was so disgusted by all the vitriol thrown at Knighty yesterday...people literally screaming at him to “fix this sh!t”. Unless someone designs websites or does programming (I create websites and do some small amount of coding myself), a person has NO IDEA the amount of work that goes into coding. He isn’t being paid for the incredibly long and hard work this takes...it’s no wonder so few coders will do this for no pay.

Well said. I actually applaud the guy for being able to pull this off. Sure, I was angry at first, but that was more due to pure shock at him doing this without any prior warning beforehand. The people who were yelling at Knighty, says quite a lot about them. If they don't like the new design, they can just leave. Door's always open.

I haven’t yet

Trust me, it's actually kinda cool.
4562039
okay
also I hope to see that Starlight Glimmer story soon
4562046
Will try to get it up this month if possible. One-Shots generally don't take me too long.
4562050
okay.
yeah I always think that is the key point whenever people do One-Shots. it doesn’t take them that long
I hope this whole thing hasn’t changed your view of me too much either.
I won’t take back what I said about knighty or change my mind about him, unless he changes his ways and starts taking the community here seriously instead of being such a tyrant, but I would still hate to lose you as a follower (a symbolic one, since you didn’t actually follow me so far) because of all that stuff that happened yesterday.

Eh, you're just expressing your opinion. Everyone's entitled to one, even if I don't have to like it. No need to apologize for that. ...I swear, sometimes I'm too nice for my own good.

Oh! Forgot to ask, how do you get those custom header colors? I've seen some people with ones like red and the like.

The user card color? Those are attached to your userpic. Once you have uploaded one, you can choose a header color from the picture.
