do these forums give you a headache?
Anybody else find these forums a jumbled mess? The page layout is really strange, all the languages are just thrown together, and trying to read brown font on that awful Brown image background gives me a headache.

Inversus✭✭✭✭✭Yes, and a lot of people have mentioned it in the past.
ZOS have replied by saying that they will continue to work on the forums, and might introduce changes later.VR14 EH Sorc

These forums are the most horrible mess I have ever run into - Anywhere - in 20+ years of the internet and 15 years of MMOs.
You'd think that the web devs would have 0.0001 of a clue to create a main page with links to each language, but no. Clearly they're not associated with a viable MMO company or have done any research on how the internet functions...Life is like a pack of wolves -

It is jumbled and confusing, and lacking some MMO Forum Staples (General Discussion, anyone?). I don't mind the multilingual sections in between the English ones, though.0 -
The language part is a pain, not a big deal though. Really the worst is the awful colors, I haven't seen this bad of design since 1991 with the florescent green blinking text. It literally makes me feel nauseous and gives me a headache if I try to read them. Plus the really strange way you navigate between sections. Forum code can be found everywhere pre built, why oh why.Edited by dannyslag on March 31, 2014 9:41PM0

Yeah... the foreign language stuff strewn everywhere makes it difficult to find things, so I can't tell if it's otherwise organized well or not.
I'm not super keen on the color scheme, and additional color sets would be welcome, but it's no biggie for me.
Really, if it were just easier to look around without seeing all the redundant but useless-to-me foreign language stuff, that would go a long way.1 -
Coggage✭✭✭✭They should just use the temporary forum layout that was on the Bethseda site. It was much better than this.0

@ThanatosXR
Then please exit forums for discussion about the game you believe is a 'mess'.
I don't understand why you are here insulting a game, when you could be playing non-'mess'y game.VR14 EH Sorc

I won't be able to play till tomorrow and I stayed away from beta on purpose so I could start the game "clean," but really hope the game isn't going to be as terrible as these forums. Coming here to get some info on the early release info has been a real disappointment. These forums are really bad. I've been on forums since bbs days and this is as bad as they come.

They arent. There is always going to be people that will over react and exaggerate. The forums are definitely messy. But in the two days of gameplay I have yet to see anything seriously gamebreaking besides a handful of quests that are bugged.Penniless Sellsword CompanyCaptain Paramount - Jorrhaq VhentKorith Eaglecry * Enrerion Aedihle * Laerinel Rhaev * Caius Berilius * Seylina Ithvala * H'Vak the GrimjawlTenarei Rhaev * Dazsh Ro Khar * Yynril Rothvani * Bathes-In-Coin * Anaelle Faerniil * Azjani Ma'LesAban Shahid Bakr * Kheshna gra-Gharbuk * Gallisten Bondurant * Etain Maquier * Atsu Kalame * Faulpia SeverinusWhat is better, to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort? - Paarthurnax1 -

Exaggerate much?
No.
In all honesty, I've never encountered a forum site that's such a wreck before.
Limited, with minimal functionality sure, but always quite clear and straightforward. Never before have I ever run into a trainwreck like this place ... well, hmm, except for whatever *chan calls itself, it ain't a forum.Life is like a pack of wolves -

Thybrinena✭✭✭✭I wouldn't consider this a wreck and seeing as the devs are on it, I'm not too worried about it as of yet. I suspect by 2016 we'll have talking heads pop on the screen with Ayrenn's face on the monitor blowing you kisses as you type questions such as "How do I learn to play musical instruments?".0
-
Shimond✭✭✭✭No, these forums do not give me a headache. Some of the posts on the last forum (when non subscribers/players could post) did, though.0 -
spinedoc✭✭✭Vote for the old forums as well, they were quite decent. Dark colors are nicer on the eyes.0
-
Sue_D_Nim✭✭✭The layout itself is growing on me, and I quite like some of the features. Fix the color scheme to alleviate the eye strain, and separate the confusing jumble of languages, and they'll go a long way toward making the forums more pleasant to use.
[edited to add] ... and provide more logical categories, like General Discussion, Quest Help, and so on.Edited by Sue_D_Nim on April 1, 2014 8:32PM"If danger doesn't find her, she'll seek it out and invite it home to dinner." ~ Prince Naemon
