The New Shiny Escapist

[Dujith]

Code needs work too besides the awfull snow blind.
Everyone shows up as a Guest beyond the first page. Logged in and using Chrome.

Btw, for an article that already has over 900 comments the amount of "likes" and +1's are realy realy low.

That alone should raise an eyebrow with the ones who made this layout. These days ppl will "like" anything. so getting 4 from all these comments and ppl who viewed the article, seems a tad low. Maybe its a hint?

I love it... I wish there was an optional darker template, perhaps somewhere in the profile selection or something, but I can live with bleeding eyeballs. Inefficient site design I can't live with, so this particular change is very much welcome.

This. It seems a bit to whitey to me too. Add a little dark blueish or darkish something to it.

What on earth kind of new bug have we stumbled upon now? users randomly reported, guests which all joined today, and all of them have 0 posts... >-<

I'm seeing everyone's posts as "Guest"... I take it this is not normal.

Nothing.

Not bad, it's been in need of a changr

Apparently we all joined at the end of 1969. And now I am seeing no names or post counts...

If anyone's wondering about the "31 Dec 1969" thing, Unix systems (like the Linux machines this site runs on) compute time by counting the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970. This looks like a computer throwing up its hands and admitting it doesn't know when anyone joined.

Maybe the redesign can't handle such a large thread?

No, it's happening on small threads, too. I'm also seeing a lot of the OP having a blank post and getting a warning for it, then the actual post is #2 and has no author, though I do have a feeling that the redesign is part of the problem.

Same. This is pretty reminiscent of that ApocalyPS3 thing [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ps3#Leap_year_bug] that some people went through.

Anyone hoping for a re-redesign? I kind of am.

It's not just the OP, I think. It's showing up on every page. In fact, this page says the first guy is BANNED with only two post.

... Musta been a bad guy.

I'm getting all that as well. And I made a post about it (not even bothering to look at this, I fail...) and it said I am banned, when I only have one warning against me that I received the other day...

 

[Bobic]

Woooo! Over 1000 posts, most of which are complaints. Well done everyone!

 

[FateOrFatality]

This is sort of hilarious. I'm looking forward to the inevitable someone pretending to be an Escapist admin or something.

Maybe the Escapist decided they really liked how 4chan operates? I certainly hope not...

As far as I can tell the "group" buttons on the homepage don't work, andlast time I actually managed to get into a group page it didn't show any content anyway.
