Another new feature...

Edited Date/Time 8/29/2023 12:53pm

Okay, I'm so excited about the look of this that I thought I'd give it its own thread!

'Good, Bad and Ugly' has an all-new look on Vital MX. Watch it on the homepage HERE.

That's a new video feature, then there's a new written feature coming later today. Busy, busy.

The video is well done and good content!

 

But mannnn….we are losing readable context all over the place & getting flooded with videos. Sometimes it’s just nice to sit down with a coffee and read a bit.

Honestly, we’ve posted more written content in the last three weeks than we have in the last year it feels like. Most of it headed up by Lewis.

Give me a couple of hours and you'll have a 2000-word story to read.

Yes, agree, however I prefer the good/bad/ugly text version FWIW. Seems to have more depth than the video.

Lots of great content coming from you guys these days.       I will say that I preferred the older version of Good, Bad and Ugly.

I like the good bad and ugly done for both classes individually. I think it would even be cool to add a few extra good/bad/uglies for the event/day itself, like how A1 would have had 'rushed opening ceremonies' in the bad

IMO, GD2/Grant's written version was better than the video version.

I've been around these parts for a while now.  Vital is my, one and only, place for info/entertainment.  I've never had any complaints about content and presentation.  

ML took the baton from Gibby and obviously put in the work to keep the lights on and make improvements.  Kudos bud.

Little did we know that he'd hire a live wire like Lewis.  They appear to be a good team...hooking up real good outta the gate.  Excited to see what's next.

For everyone who wants something to read, I spent all day yesterday on this piece HERE.

There will be a lot more words in future, plus all YouTube videos/interviews being typed up.

Writing is my speciality, first and foremost, so Vital will definitely have more words than ever before.

Lol...yes sir.  "On point, enthusiastic, quick, capable...".  ML seems comfortable letting you have at it...and so far it's lookin' good.Wink

Yes, I also prefer the written content. Not as obvious when the boss walks into my office...

Nice and welcome addition to Vital!

Are we going to start seeing any written content from Darkside? Don't know that I've even seen him in the forum?  Great job Lewis!

Around 1,000-1,200 on average.

Big Long-Form Damon Bradshaw piece, by Jamie, will be posted in about 30 mins or so. It's a two-part story, with part one being roughly 9,000 words.

Wow do I feel dumb.  Too much time on the forum and not enough checking the home page.
