THIS IS NOT A POLL!
THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR CHANGE OF ANY KIND!
I'm just a member, nothing else. No part of the back end on Webmasterworld, just a curious guy. This comment, or one like it, comes around every-so-often, mostly as a complaint for something or other without real specification.
WHAT EXACTLY IS WRONG? WHAT EXACTLY IS DESIRED?
To ME, a forum is communication in the most direct UI possible. TEXT ON SCREEN. Editing tools sufficient to do the task. Members to interact with. Archives---searchable---leading to past and present knowledge/commentary. Logical layout. Moderated topics. S-p-a-m free. Reasonable ads instead of a jungle's worth. Commonsense user profiles. A DM that's quick and easy. A sensible TOS, and willingness to STICK TO IT on both sides...
When Badges were discussed some years back I was con---what purpose did they serve? Well, we got'em, and we ALSO got a method to turn'em off! (Cuts down on the scrolling!) Works for me. :)
I don't see WW the way most do. I run HIGH CONTRAST ACCESSIBILITY GRAPHICS which turns my screen into a 1980's black and white monochrome-like screen, just with very high resolution AND a boost in font size simply because I am going blind by inches. "Pretty" does not translate to users like me so I could care less, but it seems others are more interested in the "dated" appearance than the CONTENT, which puzzles me.
Do you come for the graphics, or the WORDS?
What is your wish list of mods AND why?
If not obvious... I like things just the way they are. Good content. Good management. Good folks.
