[QUOTE=Talvy;53204145]My labpunch login looks exactly the same: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/iWyvTgr.png[/IMG] So they look the same, but only newpunch works?[/QUOTE] yes because in twitter's backend they have different IDs
[QUOTE=LordCrypto;53204149]they're literally two separate sites with unshared databases[/QUOTE] I'm just making sure since they use the same Twitter name.
[QUOTE=Talvy;53204153]I'm just making sure since they use the same Twitter name.[/QUOTE] that's just the name
snip - ok sorted
My only real complaint so far are the thread icons. It'd be better if the threads icons were actually related to the subforum itself, such as a Playstation or Nintendo logo for threads in Generals Games instead of a crying emoji.
Oh jesus, apparently you need around 9k coins to get back your gold size avatar, that's gonna take a long ass time.
I considered changing my name to my current online alias but fuck it, GrizzlyBear is kinda cool imo.
I don't remember my Facepunch password at all. If I reset my password with the "forgotten your password" thing and try to use that in the legacy account migration, will it work, or will that screw everything up?
[QUOTE=Crimor;53204163]Oh jesus, apparently you need around 9k coins to get back your gold size avatar, that's gonna take a long ass time.[/QUOTE] That's really ridiculous. I've been here for nearly 10 years and suddenly I don't deserve to have my original avatar size? I really hope garry adjusts this.
Not sure if moving the forums right now was a good idea. There's still fuck ton of quirks to fix, features missing, new features to improve and at the moment, the forum is literally cut in half.
Gotta say, seeing as this is the first time I've really taken a look at newpunch, it's nowhere near as bad as people made it out to be. Once we exterminate the shitposts it'll be fine, will just take some getting used to.

New punch is horrible to browse on android
Also watch the fuck out when looking at oldpunch threads with spoilers since the tags no longer work.
Aww, I got some old posts on my profile from ages ago. Which includes tech illiterate me giving PC advice to Rust players, and wide eyed programmer me asking for advice on how to get ahead in AS Computing after applying for it after GCSEs. Little did GCSE me know I'd be barely passing a Computer Science degree in just 4 years time.
Being able to edit the CSS natively is probably my favorite thing so far. [t]https://i.imgur.com/AVQBxvo.jpg[/t] Mmmm...

I know that at my job we mostly ignore broken features if they've not yet been released or are just in QA :v:
well shit, today's been a fun day to lazily browse around on the forums g'night oldpunch, see ya'll on newpunch.
How the hell do I do the legacy account migration if it requires me to be logged into newpunch :huh: Do I just log in through steam or w/e then use the link? [B]Edit:[/B] Ok I guess that worked but now I can't even post
I hope the app updates to have newpunch support soon, now that sh has migrated my mobile experience has become wretched
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;53204167]That's really ridiculous. I've been here for nearly 10 years and suddenly I don't deserve to have my original avatar size? I really hope garry adjusts this.[/QUOTE] the background feature isn't too bad, i'd appreciate just a regular large avatar (or some other gold member bonus tbh where's the special treatment) but i'm already seeing people do some rad things with the fading avatar backgrounds. you can functionally replicate your originally avatar size with that anyway.
[QUOTE=LordCrypto;53204177]you'll get enough coins to get almost to 80x80 just by migrating. coin gain happens fairly quickly[/QUOTE] I spent all my coins and only made it to 79x69 Current gold avatars are 80x160. I think if you've been here a certain length of time, there should be perks. Especially if you're an active user all those years like you and I have been.
Trying to verify, permission denied.
[QUOTE=LordCrypto;53204177]you'll get enough coins to get almost to 80x80 just by migrating. coin gain happens fairly quickly[/QUOTE] I didn't. I got up to 68x79 before I ran out of coin.
69x69 is the winner's size

Well i guess this is goodbye to my original account, signed up here with an email address I havent used for well over 10 years, don't know it's password and can't get into it, thus can't change the email of this account and thus can't verify I own it. Sad day.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;53204095]I'm not participating in Newpunch until it gets at least some decent moderation going on. What a mess over there. The news isn't informative anymore because there isn't anything to be outraged by.[/QUOTE] I am outraged by the quality of the posting. Feels like I'm on reddit.
