Aion Team Hime Posted November 20, 2020 Aion Team Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hello all, The forums are back online and we’ve made a few upgrades. In addition to the new layout and a few other backend changes, we also have an avatar gallery for you to select an avatar from. To select an avatar, head over to your Profile in the upper right and click on your Profile Photo. It will bring up a gallery of images you can use. We’ll add more avatars over time so please enjoy the current selection. Thank you! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Rag-DN Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 While you are at redoing the forums can we please just have a section for Community Announcements where only the Dev's can start a topic? I know we can use the Dev tracker but having a seperate area just for new news would be nice and make the forums looks more organized. Thanks! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ferk-DN Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) I deleted the toon Ferk-DN which was the display name for this forum. It wont let me change it to my only current toon name Furbs-DN. It says I have to wait 6mths. Surely that can't be right? Edited November 20, 2020 by Ferk-DN Link to post Share on other sites

At least it has always been that way in the past. It would be nice if they had changed that to something more sensible like every 2 months or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Voltric-DN Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Really like the look of the new forums, but could we please have some theme options in the future? This dark background and stark white text is a little hard on the eyes. Link to post Share on other sites

This dark background and stark white text is a little hard on the eyes. The "new look" is the dark background and white text, I do not see any other change in the layout or work-ability of it. And the option to have an avatar form pre-selected images, which makes little to no change in the workflow of the forums. The colour combination is awful. Link to post Share on other sites
Voltric-DN Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) You sound bitter. If you can't see an improvement between this and the boring white on white we had before that's on you. Edited November 21, 2020 by Voltric-DN Link to post Share on other sites
Bombaba-DN Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 New forums look nice. Wish we had more avatar pics though! Link to post Share on other sites

I see it and it blinds me, if the renovation was just a background colour change they could at least give us the option to opt out of this colour combination. Something like a normal mode and a night mode would have worked ten times better. Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry if I came off a tad harsh in my response. I thought you were being aggressive towards me. 😅 Link to post Share on other sites

I thought you were being aggressive towards me. 😅 No I put sarcasm in it, it can't be your fault that they took a decision to make a perma night mode with a bad colour for background. Their main asite is in nightmode because it has black background and white text, but at least that is not he forums and the tesxt is huge and readable. Anyway I now enter the forums with google chrome and I installed an addon that makes the background creme coloured and at least it doesnt' hurt my eyes, it is even better than the white or gray background, not pretty but it is good with the eyes. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
skythee-DN Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 TY for the tip. I just installed the Night Mode Pro extension for Opera browser and get similar result. I only targeted the Aion forums display. Link to post Share on other sites

Ferk-DN Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Hime, could you unpin some of the sticky threads in General Discussion that haven't had a post in months? Just to free up some of the clutter. Edited December 2, 2020 by Ferk-DN 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ferk-DN Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) Exactly 30 days after the forum upgrade I am getting this error: “You must login to the game withing the last 30 days in order to post on the community.” I login to the game every day since 7.7 came out. Seems to be some browser saved data thing. I deleted everything with the word Aion in it from the "Cookies and Site Data" section of Firefox and the error has disappeared.
