Jantha Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I know its just me but the facebook, twitter interface is yet more ways to track you etc... I am against all that crap. Same here... I found it odd that a forum has a "Friends" feature. I don't need any more arenas to make me feel like a friendless loser Maybe I'm just turning into a Luddite.. or curmudgeon. I do like some of the new features though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 What is the "Henry" forum? What did I miss? I don't care for the new soft colors and fuzzy borders - gimme some black & white and some definition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike~ Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is a lesson Gibson needs to learn in more fields than just website management. If there's one thing I hate it's pointless updates for the sake of appearing hip and trendy as opposed to offering any sort of useable features. The layout is more cramped, avatars are too small to be worthwhile, and it's more of a pain to post. Awesome upgrade guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 can we say ridiculous yet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 can we say ridiculous yet ? Yeah, but apparently I can't drop twenty F bombs in a single post... And the mobile version of this site on an iPhone is perfection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstMeasure Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 It has Profile Pages like Facebook or Myspace. For a self Promoting Band Member like me, that's a HUGE PLUS! Obviously Gibson plans on the forum Getting Bigger, not Smaller. It's more like the Forums you find at Guitar Player or Acoustic Guitar Magazine. Bigger Online Communities need Freinds Lists and Profile Pages if you want to stay in touch with certain members. The Smilies are easier to use, and you can Attach files directly to you post, making Virtual Jams a heck of a lot easier. No more bouncing back and forth to Sound Clip for sharing. I'd say the positives outweigh the negatives, but bigger avatars that automatically adjust would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 The best part of the new forum for me is the auto re size for mobile users. I am on the road a lot these days and being able to read the forum without scrolling back and forth is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
