FA version 3.0

[kayfox]

The point is that a commission information panel shouldn't risk the stability[sic] (you meant security right?) of the rest of the site.

I would think that the code put together to avoid this kinda shit in journals and comments could be used to at least provide some sort of stopgap between nothing and something thats really usable. Hell I could probably get this kinda thing going in a matter of an hour or so.

Oh, but I cant be trusted to even see the PHP code this site uses, little own actually touch it.

Half a month since the set date and still no update info on this? Yeah... no. It's time for some PR 101. Excuse me, I've got some asses to rape.

Oh, and thanks Eevee. I can see the calandar now. I'll take a better look at it later.

Fur Affinity Support to me

No, you're right on this. I hope to have an announcement about it set in stone (with a date) this week.

Subject: UI Update/PR 101

It has been half a month since the set date for the FA 3.0 beta release date. You sort of announced that there was something holding it up, but an unreasonable amount of time has passed since that announcement. Finishing the coding for the comment system should not have taken more than a week and a half, and according to your announcement that was the only thing holding it up. For fuck sakes, make a damn announcement already. Is it the comment system still holding it up? Is it something else? Is Yak on his period?

You wonder why people don't take you seriously and treat you like shit? Well this would be one of the biggest reasons why. Learn what Public Relations are, or bring on someone who does and will do the job properly.

Eh, we'll see what happens. If the week passes and still no announcement comes up I'll go back to my original plan of action.

I don't really expect Dragoneer or Yak to answer emails from me, since they wont answer anything else.

Believing in the new UI is kind of like believing in an omnipotent god. For some people, belief in something such as it is settling to them, and they have plenty of faith that they will see it sooner or later, after time passes. For others, they'd like to believe, but there is plenty of evidence that proves there will never be such a thing as it.
Some are assholes about it, whether they believe in it ever existing or the opposite.
For me, however, I'll believe (in) it when I see it.

Hate to be the Devil's advocate but FA does belong to Dragoneer, he does own it and it is free.
Thus he can do whatever he wants with it. Security holes and all. I'm just smart enough not to donate
to the site and keep all my business info strictly in emails.

I feel sorry for anyone donating to the site. Here they are paying to a site that has a shitty layout.

Actually, it wasn't implying one exists at all. Please try to stay on topic.

Uh. Yes? Nobody's saying he's not allowed, and I don't know why this keeps coming up like it's some big revelation. The complaint is that some goings-on are irresponsible and shameful. (The implication is that this is bad.)

Fifty bucks says they close down the site during the busiest time of the year for FA, then the new UI is just the old one held together with duct tape to a new front page.

Don't believe in the new UI! Believe in me! Believe in the CyberFoxx who believes in the new UI!



... I'm sorry... The Meme goblins made me do it.

[StainMcGorver]

Don't believe in the new UI! Believe in me! Believe in the CyberFoxx who believes in the new UI!

I'm sorry, I don't follow you. Oh well, I'm sure it's nothing beneficial to the human race as a whole.

[CannonFodder]

If the site goes down for weeks on end and then comes back up and looks like the old site just with a different colour scheme, then I'll call bs.

I recently discovered how much I like microwave popcorn. That wouldn't have happened without this thread. <3

Not much of this week left; any followup?

Hey Eevee can I make a special request, if the site goes down next week and comes back up "conveniently" after AC, can you tell us if the new UI is just the old one with duct tape attached to it?
Cause I think he's paranoid enough to pull a stunt like that considering some of the stuff he has said in the past about kage.

what has he said about Kage?

[CannonFodder]

what has he said about Kage?

That it's not a "real" furry con, that kage has good intentions, but he doesn't like him.
Short version is if fa goes down while AC is going on it's not a coincidence.

[Fenrari]

I think I fell into this conversation at the wrong time...

But do carry on... Actually hold it for a moment, I'm grabbing some nomz.
