the buddy list was way better on the old version, on the old version it was easy to add/remove buddies and it was easy to find which one you were looking for. Now they are all in this obscenely tiny box with very tiny lettering.....

and the PM system was better in the old version, this one is so confusing....I still haven't figured out how to quote the message when I'm replying

not to mention the load speed, I finally got Firefox and the pages loaded like 3x faster then my AOL now I'm no better with Firefox then AOL they both load the site at a snail pace.

AA had a very unique, yet very easy to use layout....now it's just like every other forum on the web, whatever havened to individuality?

It should get faster once the database maintained is done. Yep, it's STILL going. There's like over 10,000 defunct users that need to be removed from the database, so it's going to take some time.

The forum looks like every other phpBB forum because it's using the default templates. It takes time to code up custom templates. I started working on created the AA customized templates over 6 months ago, and just finished them up tonight. It's called Absolute Anime Classic and you can switch to it from your User Control Panel. Next I need to start working on templates to match the current Absolute Anime skin.

The Quick Reply Thingy At The Bottom of Threads.
I Prefer The Avatars Being On The Left Side Rather Than The Right.
The Goku On The log In Screen.
I Get Muddled Up With Peoples Signatures and What The Person Below Is Actually Saying.
And I Just Miss The Old AA In General

But I Also Don't Want To Complain About It A Lot, Because I Know That The Webmaster Put A Lot Of Effort Into Making This New Absolute Anime For Its Users. So I think We Should Be More Greatful and Try To Show Some Respect and Appreciation Towards The Site And Him, That I Do.

I see, thats alot of users.

I didn't realise it took that long, it must be complicated...or atleast it would be to me because I'm just about dumb as a rock with computers

P.S I love the new color system

ooo! one more thing.
why not put the chat link by the 'who's chatting' part of the front page?
a few people [including myself >.>] took forever to find the link.

This one is defiantly different from any other forums I have been to; it also seems that the Webmaster has worked hard and paid money for this. But I have to say that it has got harder to use, I have to adjust to it quite a bit. I have also noticed that the site has a new atmosphere to it.
I was also thinking that the site will gain and lose some members. But it’s a trial and you might get a success or a fail.

The spell check button is gone. I miss that feature.

Can you not install IE7Pro? It's free, and works with both IE6 and IE7. Or there's other spell check add-ons out there for IE also.

[Aoi Sakuraba]

I see the speed is back.....actually I think it's even faster. woot

[Jade_Steel_Hawk]

this site is amazing now!!
you've done an excellent job spiffing it up to make it similar to the old one, but better.
every request I've seen has been carried out

[Aoi Sakuraba]

Thats because AA is the best forum I've seen and we have a webmaster who really seems to care about the site

[Aiden]

Things I like:
-the color is awesome.
-and i love not having the spell check button. i always got that confused with the submit button.
Other Things:
-i agree with Amray. i miss the old AA and that the avatars were better found on the left side of the screen rather than the right.
-i also agree with Evil Russel Crowe, which is a first. i miss changing my username.

Here is something that I just noticed a few minutes ago. I don't know if it effected everybody, or if it's just a bug in my profile.

My buddy list has been emptied. All the people that used to be in my buddy list aren't there anymore, so my profile says that I have no buddies.

I don't think that it happened to anyone else, or else there would have been threads about this already. If it is a glitch with my profile, is there a way to get rid of the glitch?
