We are reviewing feedback and are very likely to update a few things in the upcoming days. Thank you for being patient. Preliminary list here. -Hot_Bid YOU CAN CLICK THE TL BANNER INSTEAD OF THE HOME BUTTONYou can turn on the LoL forum/D3 forum by clicking 'other' in the filter. |
The previous setup for the User section in the top left was fine. Now it's just more clicks to get to the same place, but the space is just being wasted. There's no real need for the change other than to "declutter" but that "decluttering" just makes it require more effort to get back to the things which were there, which makes it worse to navigate.
Also as above, bring back "My Posts", I used that pretty much all the time. And don't make it hidden. Unless you are saving space to use for something else, it's just a pain to have to click twice instead of once to get where I want to go.

I don't know if it is me getting old, but I liked the old design better.
My one big gripe is that the "news archive" is so small, and the news section that used to be where the featured articles is right now is gone.
Secondly now i have to click the little triangle in the top every time I want to check if there are new liquibets, instead of them being visible all the time.
PS: Is there any way to remove the spotlight section from the front page.
Edit: I don't liquibet on BW, so the arrow in the top will always be orange for me. So I can never tell if there are new SC2 bets.
Also i think the filters should be moved to the right

Is there any way to allow SC2 tournament streams but not 'normal' SC2 streams?
|
Here's where we're at right now for upcoming improvements based on the feedback. There will be more, but some require additional discussion internally.
- A "lock" option in dropdown. Click it and you can lock it http://imgur.com/ik0ibC8
- Add an advanced filters link in the filter menu and add customization for stream/news/calendar.
- Introduce the option to completely remove races (the actual races, not the icons) from the SC stream section.
- If you have filtered games out you shouldn't see Liquibet color for those
- The option in your settings to get rid of the big filter buttons
- Add back forum dropdown. We gain too little by removing it.

Hey, how come we don't have an "admin" section either? I'm really confused is this something you unlock after a period of time and/or posts?
Anyway jokes aside I take back what I said early about wanting to see "my posts" like we used to be able to. The subscribed threads button is pretty easy and simple to use, I really like it. Maybe just add an option to have "favorite" threads at the top (like the pony thread, Got thread, fanclubs, etc).

What about moving the filters from the prime postion on the nav bar. As many people stated you only use them like once. Menu should be from the left.

Can't you bring back the specialized frontpages, like www.teamliquid.net/bw/ ? This was the fastest way of filtering most content to match my preferences, and it didn't even require me to log in. Anything else (logging in, clicking to remove SC2 / DOTA content) is just so much slower.
Also, before it was possible to hide SC2 / DOTA streams. Now they are visible even when I'm logged in, and I can't figure out how to remove them in my account settings.

"More" triangle should have option to be enabled forever, instead of having to click it every time.
Elaborate scheme by the staff to get higher Liquibet scores by getting thousands users to occasionally miss voting. :p
action\clicks before after Liquibet check 0 1 Liquibet open 1 2 My posts open 1 3
P.S. Funnily, you can get the "My posts" clicks down to 2, by clicking the Private Messages icon, and then clicking "My posts" (instead of Triangle/Profile/My posts). Good to know, but seriously, why do you want me to do this?
P.P.S. I also prefered the streams to just have [BW] / [SC2] / [Dota 2] tags, instead of the current way of grouping. Too bad there's no way to make it back to how it was...

YOU CAN CLICK THE TL BANNER INSTEAD OF THE HOME BUTTON Ye.. no.
I can't see how you think the new filter bar is more relevant than the menu bar. Can you please switch them? I used to click the home button all of the time, now I just end up accidentally clicking the filter button every time. Updates are great, but a user ultimately decides how an interface is going to be used. You can't sacrifice usability like this and then say "WELL YOU DID IT WRONG IN THE FIRST PLACE".

Only thing i don't like, is that i have to click a button to see open liquibets.
Edit: i see i'm not the only one.
|
Dont know if its recognized, but the time in the up right is not updating while watching a stream. whould be nice if this get fixed.
|
any enlightment on how all these changes seemed needed? like, why change stuff and often make it more complicated than before, even though the old one was working perfectly fine.

Please consider the changes proposed in this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=387736#9
My script works for the moment, but it would be nice if colorization or other visual indications of the type of game would be available by default.
|
To be honest, i dislike the changes, back if you clicked on"Brood War" or "Dota 2" forums, you were straight at their forums, now you have to scroooooooooooll down to get what you need. There should be a quick link to them.
Also what others said, why change everything to be more complicated?

It's a good suggestion that has been on our mind as well. We haven't come up with a clear but non intrusive design to our liking yet, and the one you linked to definitely isn't it either. Eventually something like this will come, but it's not part of the current process.

I've set my filter to remove SC2 and DotA2 from the sidebar, but is there any possibility to actually remove the Filter buttons? To be honest the icons are ugly and it ruins the classic feel of the website, sorry to whoever invested the effort in it :X So in a essence removing this bit.

I love how everyone complains, this is why I would never like to run a website :/
Although the same goes for TL as for every other website, the more you let me customize the more I like it
