Robin Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 Well, I'm sure it's fairly obvious to our existing members that we're now sporting a new website and forum skin design by Rory and I (aka. Team Robin). Feel free to use this thread to ask about any features you believe were lost in the change and were an integral part of this community.**The following features will _not_ be re-added:*** Chat - Inactive.* Shop - Useless and an excuse to spam.* Arcade - Annoying and bugged.* Custom usergroups - The colour choices were atrocious, and we were handing out custom name colours for anything.* Any boards which were removed - Deemed as not being worthwhile. Hope you enjoy the new site. Regards, _Robin_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribbyz Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 It looks a lot more professional. Easily reaches out and grabs my attention. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSchilli1 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Recent posts, unread replies to your posts, and automatic link naming (like in my sig, it used to have the name of Devo's topic instead of just the link text) I really like the new site though. Good job.-JS1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sealbreaker Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 what i want back:updated topics (i got direct link, but i want it to be easy accessible)unread topicsSIDEBAR! (the last 10 topics posted in)name colors.Besides that, it looks good…but good look is not everything.-seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luriok Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I like the new site but I would enjoy if you added the sidebar(last 10 topics) back, but its good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rithy58 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Edit : Not sure where to post so I put it here.I notice some small mistakes(sorry if they're not) on the first page and I would like to point that out.> You've got nothing to lose, **some** come on over and become a part of the largest 2D Online RPG development community around!> The community was strong and **the** Coke set up some new ideas on the website such as VIP membership> Even with all this history behind it**[missing comma?]** Eclipse manages to stand up by itself.I think there are more missing commas but they're okay without them.I read the History of Eclipse, a couple of times. It was really good. You should put it into a book :DAnyway, Now I'm starting to remember how I got here. I started with Player World then move to Mirage Source when I found out Mirage Source is open source. Then I stopped with the Mirage stuff for a while and then found Elysium Diamond. I never got to use anything in between. And from there, I found Mirage-Realms and Eclipse. My order make no sense but the order in History of Eclipse make so much more sense.When I first visit Eclipse this morning, I was like o.0? Did we got hacked?Then I realized it said "Eclipse Origin" which then make me confused a bit more. Did Robin took over?Well, anyway, I love this. It make Eclipse look so much more professional.Sincerely,Rithy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorn Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 looks great, but we're now without a LOT of the things that I liked, including the recent posts list, the side display of who's online, and the blue bar for private chat.Looks more professional, doesn't feel as inviting.

azure Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Name colors and unread topics need to make a comeback. With team Robin being a member group it looks pretty selfish. <_< Otherwise it looks better than the old eclipse default.Edit: Secondary thought: The over use of green drains my attention in about three seconds or so. It might only be me who would like to see it done, but maybe using more colors would liven things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorn Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I LIKED the wide variety of name colors, it made it easy to look for specific people online. Now we have a few people with colors, and a field of gray. Not better, in my eyes.Taste the rainbow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawQuart Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I agree. Name colours need a come back, but not the useless ones (aka Taco God). The prize for winning a contest should also be a colour (but ONLY one colour- you don't get to choose).The forum doesn't seem the same without recent topics, I'm sorry.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saadhamza Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Im with all the people saying that they want the recent topics, or replies to your posts, back.Is it just me, or did Chit Chat disappear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lollicat Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I think I'll add to the group of people saying that I cannot function without those recent topics/replies to my posts. xD I've no idea when people replied to what I said, and with the recent topics I can look for a topic I like without scrolling down the forum.Also, I agree with Azure that the "Team Robin" seems a bit arrogant on your part. I wouldn't mind something like "Design Team" or something relevant, but Team Robin is just… I dunno. And it makes me think of Team Rocket.Anywho, it's a nice site.
