ah fuck my name's color blends terribly with the faded in background
Damn this website looks fantastic on my tablet
Gotta say I'm pretty glad I was finally able to move away from my old username
Wow just realized I can't bold or otherwise edit quotes at all, that's shitty
Anyway I quoted you to say that I'm not surprised to see a snowflake rating here at all. Keep in mind this is still made by the same dude who voluntarily chose the default name for his game to be "Mingebag". Garry has always had a heavy sarcastic/satirical sense of humor and it's not exactly a secret that he doesn't care if some people get offended, so the snowflake thing seems pretty appropriate to me
Eh, I'm not worried about it's actual meaning as much as the connotations the word has developed in recent years. No big deal I guess. It's not up to me regardless.
the connotation is exactly why it's perfectly suited to facepunch, lol
I guess I'm not sure what you mean. In my experience, I mostly see the insult used by white supremacists and their sympathizers. That is the connotation I'm talking about.
same
tbh the username and profile should be hidden when the background is brought into focus
Yeah I don't know how I feel about this. The "coin" stuff is a huge red flag.
There really needs to be more threads displayed at once when viewing a subforum. There are not nearly enough at current.
tbh they'll be fine
best you can do is snip it, can't delete posts
I just tried paying 1 coin for a wider avatar. Didn't realize that it widens my avatar by 1 fucking pixel. Is this a joke? Are we expected to pay for coins in the future?
no coins will always be free
there's rumblings of making coin games, and having real money in makes it online gambling
So are the new forums extremely slow on loading pages for anyone else? OldPunch when opening pages and threads, it usually took under a second to load everything. NewPunch takes over 4 seconds.
My internet isn't exactly in lightspeed category but considering Oldpunch didn't have this problem, this feels like a giant downside to me. Maybe it's all the porting in the background, it's why I'm asking.
considering every single post has to basically be reformatted, azure might not be super thrilled atm
just wait it out
nah, just add in lootboxes that provide coins. then you're all set
Right, we'll see when the mastermind behind this changes his mind a few months down the line.
the moment money comes in exchange for coins, facepunch gets shut down. garry doesn't want that and it's not like he needs to monetize fp
i'm fairly sure the coins will also tie into fp's games. we need to remember fp is a game developer, and these new forums are focused on integrating the forum into fp's games
garry may make some bad ideas sometimes but i dont think he would have that bad of an idea to fuck with coins and make them buy only and shit
The background images are so nice I'm actually starting to wish THAT'd be your avatar instead of these tiny squares that you can barely see what's on them.
is there a reason why the site name is "forum" rather than "facepunch"?
iirc it was garry wanting to prevent separation from the actual facepunch studio and the forums, so this is a way to better integrate the two by having facepunch.com be the studio's and the forums be the forum.facepunch.com subdomain.
Really dig this iteration now, good job.
no no no, the actual page title
it's "forum" not "facepunch" or "facepunch forum"
Same thing I imagine, just differentiating between the two. Forum barely fits in the page title as is for me regardless
