Visual Updates

Is there a chance we can get a button that allows us to have the option to set the visual aspect of the game back to the old way that we are used to? Like they did with ascended not long ago. I find the recent changes extremely annoying and...well unattractive and I am not the only one to think so. A lot of people I have spoken to feel the same way.

Re: Visual Updates

Specific feedback, useful. :) Thank you.

Once roll-out is complete some time in the next few weeks, you will have an option to switch back to the old style, pre-2008. The old style itself will not be developed further.

The only thing that he changes are the brand of loafers that he uses.

The new login screen is not the prettiest but it is much more convenient for mobile.

[10:16 PM] Skeleton Crew - Judgement 3ic: Flux when are you going to accept that you have potentially one friend on this game and everyone else can't stand you? It's quite sad to watch.
[10:17 PM] Skeleton Crew - Judgement 3ic: I think the worst part is the obvious psychological issue that you maintain this facade of being better than everyone but also putting it down to accounts are what matter

Something else specific:

Just logged in via the new page. The tab order is frustrating as once you type password, tab to go to login it highlights the "x" before the login. Meant I typed my login details three times before I realised where I was going wrong and that I had to double tab from password to login. Sure I'll forget that in a few days when i go to quickly login again.

A better tab order would be:

code
username
password
login
X

if possible.

Can also just hit enter at the end of your password and it'll log you in. No need to tab to the login button.

Re: Visual Updates

Heisenberg is right.
However, for your convenience, I have rearranged the tab order to your more logical proposed order.

Re: Visual Updates

well i would say all the updates except login was bad, cause only login made it easier for any device to login, cause attack logs are huge and if u are with smaller monitor height u have to scroll forever. Also i think after recent forums update the box where u type your message is too big and goes below smilies column and not side by side
