Forum Discussion v6 - Newpunch Migration Underway - General

Fare you well, Fare you well, I love you more than words can tell

[QUOTE=kapin_krunch;53203818]Why is everyone posting as if the fucking world is ending? Newpunch is both still being developed, and not that bad as it is now.[/QUOTE] because many people dont like change :vs: imo it really is overdue considering that vB is on life support

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;53203812]It unfortunately has only gone as far as Dec 2009 so far so I cannot revisit my hilarious posts with Gmod and my epic shoop da whoop memes[/QUOTE] Phe- [quote] Join Date 19th June 2010 [/quote] ah shit

Migrating over. Not trying to insult anybody, but I honestly don't like NewPunch. It might just be change that's bothering me, hopefully I'll get used to it. It might also be the fact that we're effectively "Starting from zero". I know we might migrate threads over but we already have threads on newpunch and I don't know if we're going to keep the old threads, or delete the newpunch threads and move the oldpunch ones over, or stay with the newpunch threads, or merge them, etc. Maybe I'm just too worked up over nothing.

[QUOTE=Crimor;53203802]Jesus it's gonna be a lot of coins to get back up to gold size avatars on the new forums.[/QUOTE] And no animation Downgrading so bad

I regret nothing

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;53203831]And no animation Downgrading so bad[/QUOTE] Wait, I thought everyone now had animated avatars over on Newpunch?

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;53203812]It unfortunately has only gone as far as Dec 2009 so far so I cannot revisit my hilarious posts with Gmod and my epic shoop da whoop memes[/QUOTE] I can see all my old flash game threads from ggd, oldest is from july 2008.

I'll miss the design of this place, but I'll hang around newpunch for awhile to see if I like it.

Welp somehow I've fucked up account migration completely.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;53203831]And no animation Downgrading so bad[/QUOTE] Avatars can be animated. The dimensions just need to be precise.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;53203831]And no animation Downgrading so bad[/QUOTE] Avatar culture makes or breaks Facepunch for a lot of us :frown: Even my shitty nardo avatars are forum culture imo I need some avatar pixel lootboxes

[QUOTE=Splarg!;53203815]Yo guys, found the migration link a few pages back but it says you need to be logged in first, do I make an account on the new site and then do it?[/QUOTE] Yep, make one then merge.

Can't even login to Newpunch tbh

Ah fuck Garry, I can't believe you've done this

[QUOTE=Scratch.;53203813]That's the ghost account for your oldpunch threads, don't worry about that, think of it not existing when you make an account on the forum, all the posts on that account you linked will migrate over to the one you own[/QUOTE] Sure, but it's explicitly stated that my username won't be migrated "Please note that your new account will NOT adopt your old name." And since it's already taken I'm forced to create a new account with a different name. It's not the end of the world but it kinda sucks.

What's "Change Background" option? It's pretty expensive, 20 coins holy shit. I only got like 58 when I migrated my account.

[QUOTE=garry;53201851]This is what people say all the time. I always feel like that's fine if your primary audience is going to be on mobile. Our primary audience is desktop users, so we need to take care of them first. It's not hard to build a desktop design but stay conscious that you're going to have to make it work for mobile too.[/QUOTE] I could you also throw in the "clear reply box" button since behaviour is inconsistent on mobile? Currently its undelightfully devilish on mobile

[QUOTE=Niney;53203834]I can see all my old flash game threads from ggd, oldest is from july 2008.[/QUOTE] I hope it's something that fills up overtime if that's the case On that note had so much fun with all the flash games you posted back then, always a treat to look forward for a new game every odd week or so

The sidebar being on the left is triggering me. Please put it on the right because we are not Japanese.

all i can say is it's about damn time

FP Droid can't update fast enough gonna miss this website, I don't know if I'll be around the new one it's been an amazing 7 years here though

[QUOTE=Lime-alicious;53203851]The sidebar being on the left is triggering me. Please put it on the right because we are not Japanese.[/QUOTE] find out the element id/class and blitz it with css

[QUOTE=Flex;53203844]Sure, but it's explicitly stated that my username won't be migrated "Please note that your new account will NOT adopt your old name." And since it's already taken I'm forced to create a new account with a different name. It's not the end of the world but it kinda sucks.[/QUOTE] If you have enough coins, you can change your username in the shop for 50 of them. So unless it conflicts with that "FleX" account someone already linked, you should be able to re-adopt your OG name. [QUOTE=Extronic;53203846]you can keep your name if you want[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Flex;53203757]I may have screwed myself over somehow. It says username is already taken, but I don't remember creating an account there before. None of the sign in options log me into that account. What should I do? I don't want to lose my username.[/QUOTE] If it does conflict, as it appears to be, you may have to add something extra to your username. In which case, don't bother changing your username and just make your new account with that new name.

My new avatar on newpunch: [IMG]https://files.facepunch.com/f/ua/107290/50d22fe3[/IMG] See y'all around :v:

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;53203812]It unfortunately has only gone as far as Dec 2009 so far so I cannot revisit my hilarious posts with Gmod and my epic shoop da whoop memes[/QUOTE] Once the whole forum has been moved you'll be able to go back to like 2008, mine only goes as far back as Aug 2009 as thats around the time I got gold, and its all gmf posts. :v:

[QUOTE=Lime-alicious;53203851]The sidebar being on the left is triggering me. Please put it on the right because we are not Japanese.[/QUOTE] It looks better on the left side tbh

Trying to verify my email and it just says im not authorized to view it.

[QUOTE=arleitiss;53203848]What's "Change Background" option? It's pretty expensive, 20 coins holy shit. I only got like 58 when I migrated my account.[/QUOTE] The background of the left sidebar by your avatar. [t]https://i.imgur.com/uBqveol.png[/t] Might be hard to see, but here's Garry's for an example.

[QUOTE=mdeceiver79;53203849]I could you also throw in the "clear reply box" button since behaviour is inconsistent on mobile? Currently its undelightfully devilish on mobile[/QUOTE] Post it in a meta thread so it gets added to the roadmap.
