Comments Sought On YWS

Nate · 2008-04-17T04:27:27Z

For the past couple months I've been going back and forth on doing a full update for YWS. In fact, I don't mean update so much as a completely new YWS. The programming YWS is running on is old and will be completely outdated by the end of this year. However, no one else besides myself sees that. You wouldn't even know if I hadn't just told you. So, my question is, does YWS appear outdated to you when you visit it? If people don't think it appears outdated, then it's a useless exercise for me to bother completely overhauling YWS. But if enough people do, it may be worthwhile. Personally, I don't think it does, but then again, I am biased... And since I haven't done one of these in a while, what are your general thoughts about YWS? As I've said before, comments that are nothing but praise are appreciated, but not terribly helpful (YWS ain't perfect folks). So even if you love the site, let me know what you would like improved. And if you are one of the few who hate this site (but visit it anyway?), then let me know why you hate it. Of course, do keep in mind that some wished for improvements are going to be impossible, but please say them anyway. Just don't be unrealistic! (ex. "I want twenty reviews for every story posted" is ludicrous).

A survey sounds amazing.

And actually, I just recalled something a few minutes ago that I'm pretty sure bothers a lot of people but I'm not sure if it is in your control. The user costume user titles are bigger than usernames. Problem-ish? It's weird to look at, and occasionally I've seen people confuse the two.

I'm up for a survey! I think they're fun. ^^

Also, in Chimped Out, there seems to be - consistently for me - no Avatar pictures when you go to the profile pages, or Friend page. It works on default, I know. It just seems Chimped Out dislikes it. Perhaps that's only my computer. lol.

I like you as an enemy, but I love you as a friend.

No, its acutally superior to some of the newer sites I've been to. I like it a lot.

I don't think it's outdated. I think one goal to always work towards is easier navigation and organization. We've got a good system right now, but I feel that somehow it could be easier. Besides that, I think it's just fine! ^_^
