im actually surprised they are as active as they are now. considering the new site launch, and how slow old OT was before.

i still resent what they did to Fuse. the freaking wall in the profile is useless. no timestamps, no commenting, no clicking on the thumbnails to see the full pics and even no viewing post history in the "my friends" tab, just a few recent posts that you can't even filter in any way. i could go on forever but this thread is about the forums xD so i guess i'll just have to live with it. rest in peace Fuse

It took me longer than it should have to realize that you need to use your username instead of your email to login.

It's hard to read.

The page loadings are incredibly slow.

I don't understand why they launched this if it's completely broken.

I just wish they would fix whatever the hell it is that has the site crawling along. No way in hell should we be sitting there waiting 90 seconds to get a page to load, but we are. And not sure wtf they meant when they said the site would be more mobile friendly. The hell it is. I had no issues with this site on my phone before the change, now I can't get past the front page, so I can't do crap on the site now when on my phone.

Drunk post would be my guess. I have no clue what he meant to type either.

It's busier than it was just before the change. Not sure how long that will last, though.

Things actually seem a bit more active than the old site was on it's last days. Hopefully, things won't die down too much.

Come one now, what she said was easy to figure out. They is dead , they is.

I do know, I am spending less time here than I had prior to the switch. Long page loading times is not detrimental to getting people to stick around or attract new people.

The lack of sig space has killed what we once loved.

Just as dead as they were before the launch. Blaming the update is frankly foolish.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one to realize this.

I can see why the new site design might have turned users away. It's a bit hard on the eyes. It's too plain; there need to be borders between the avatar, comment, and header of every post, as well as different colors for each of them. Fix this, Gamespot.

forums seem fairly active to me. Not as active during the good years, but eh, people are posting and things are slowly getting better.

Not blaming the update is frankly foolish. There were plenty of people using the forums before hand. As someone who has frequented the OT at least a dozen times for the last years of my life, I can plain-as-day see that topics aren't dancing around even half as much as they were pre-update.

The new layout is bad but not bad enough for me to leave.

It's definitely slowed down a lot. Especially System Wars which was so fast paced.
