View Full Version : Dear TW, Looks like we're not in San Luis Obispo anymore

I guess we're not in San Luis Obispo anymore...
That said, Oz isn't that bad. Just a few things to rant about --

1. Miss the links to racquets on the racquet message board, shoes/apparel from shoes/apparel, etc.

2. Cluttered.

3. Really think the Reference section on the Classifieds board needs to be linked somehow. Without that, it'd be like **** starting a new site without feedback, stars, etc. I RELY on the reference section when making transactions, and without it, I'd just as soon use **** (which mainatins their refs), which is the first step to losing people on the board. Why sink however many years of feedback for whatever reason....

4. And now the lame esthetic rant: It really doesn't look like SLO anymore. More like everyplace else. The old "skin" somehow reflected the soul of the TW site. Read like a sloppy journal. Understood, it had flaws and was too simple, and navigating this new system will be easier - but the skin! No heart, sorry. As it's been said, it feels like a million other sites I don't go to, and despite the fuzzy TW ball at the top of the screen, I could be at a microbiology site. Or whatever. Ever seen epicski.com? Good balance over there....

Good luck, hope everybody keeps coming back and then some...

exactly, please fix this horrible gray skin. Just white will be fine.

Good points, I was at this geeky video game design discussion board (had to for something I was working on) and it was exactly the same as this new board. Absolutely no soul in this new board.

If they keep the old site as read only for awhile, then we can still check the references.
