It probably is a bug.
A very… flashy one.
I imagine it'll be noticed soon, if it hasn't been already.
Most likely they updated the forum version they are using and it some reason reverted back to the base version of it.
I'm so glad I saw this post when I loaded the forum up. I thought my phone and/or internet had cacked their metaphorical pants.
Everything is so hard for me to read with the white background 😵
Yeah not a fan of the white background hard to read
Oh my gosh this is awful. The white gives the forum a horrible clinical look. Its hard on the eyes too.
Holy flashbang batman I don't check these forums for a week and it's collapsing.
Well hopefully this means mods will report it to the devs will finally have to improve the forums
MY EYES
THIS IS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME!!!
OMG MY POOR EYES
SORRY EVERYONE, I'VE REACHED OUT TO OUR FORUM HOSTING COMPANY TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENED ON THEIR END — THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT INTENDED.
Mandy
Thank you Mandy!
Everything's back to normal now 😁.
Sounds like something someone who had something to do with it would say
MY EYES!! Oh its back to black just when I got my sunglasses.
The forum has been returned to its black background.
ohh if I had changed it, I would have said I had!
WE are back! Our Hosting company have worked with us today to fix the problem, I was worried I'd have to completely rebuild it lol.
thank you for saving our poor eyeballs!
That brightness kinda reminded me about og flashlight blind brightness, thank god my young eyes could hadle it back than.
Bless you child. My eyes thank you!
No more flashbangs going off in my eyes. I can finally read the text again
maybe the forum hosts were trying to free us
Ah back into the comfortable darkness to which we are accustomed 😊
You know, that wouldn't surprise me
we live in the shadows again
On a more serious note: Was it a techical issue at Vanilla (the hosting platform), that caused everything to become bright white?
And also, the various things like points, views and stuff we normally don't see, it really added more depth into the scoring system, and how things work.
Third: When will the ability to change profile avatars be a thing again?
In any case, that third one has been a talking point for a while, since it broke many months ago at this point, and profile avatars is something that every other forum has, and some even allows uploads of custom avatars
Regarding the avatar thing, that's a little curious, isn't it? Any idea why Vanilla would decide to drop the avatar system altogether? It just seems integral to the functionality of a forum—being able to see who's who at a quick glance.
what happened to avatars? does this mean I can't change from Pinhead anymore?
There was a workaround floating around some months ago, but I am not sure if it works anymore.
dark mode is back for me
They fixed dark mode, but the issue of not being able to change profile avatars is still present
