Order of the Alliance

Resolve - steadfastness to ones allies and refusal to abandon the effort. These traits mark the Knight of the Alliance through the shifting allegences of the game. Although the allies may change, the Diplomats resolve remains constant.

Hi Charles,
I have to wonder if it's harder to read w the serif font we have now vs the (boring?) verdana we had before. Verdana seems to be the most popular for easy-on-the-eyes reading.

Threads by default, including all replies...

Currently you can go into the Category Tree, pick a topic, and then it'll show you all the (first 20?) recent messages in that topic. You can switch the view then from Compact to Brief to Full, to show the entire messages.

You want to what, be able to read one whole thread that way?

Is a thread, then, "this message" and "replies to it" and "replies to those" or is it also including walking up the tree, perhaps to the original post?

Open to any other suggestions...

This message is in reply to post 16360:

Apparently the site has received this overhaul a whole month ago. I've only noticed this now.

I must confess that the new forum isn't working for me. I find the way individual messages are presented highly confusing and it makes it difficult to follow any conversation - unless I'm missing something.

Also, I find light-on-dark text less easy on the eye than the previous font and colour scheme.

I wish I could give more positive feedback as I am grateful what work you guys put into this site. But I'm afraid I'm feeling nostalgic about the previous message board, despite having been a DC member for less than a year.

To some things up, I'd like to see:

- a black-on-light-colour layout
- threads by default including all replies
