Hey everyone. I am a digital designer (designed the latest pulpmx app) and I made this concept a few months ago after growing tired of the old vital forums. While they work, they are ugly af.

I just wanted to update the visual hierarchy to make it easier to follow quoting and original posts. I also wanted to add in the like/dislike functionality, which I think can reduce the amount of posts made in a thread but still ensure engagement.
I did not add, but think being able to @ someone would be awesome too.

Is it worth the risk?
The Shop
To be honest, I know this board and its users would jump ship if a brand new, completely different design went into place. I mostly just restructured the information.
We always have a huge list of development items going on at any one time. The current one is a conversion from http to https (something that others have noted is on their wish list.
We have toyed with the idea of a thumbs up/down for individual posts. The most recent change is the addition of a delete button so that users can delete their own posts.
I'm not sure where a visual redesign would fall among the current list of changes.
a refresh button instead of F5 especially for mobile version... Live Chat for bench racing more like youtube etc.
winner delete button... how about alcohol lock
U.S. humor doesn't seem to translate very well to the Euros.
This would be great especially for race day threads. Clicking the refresh page non stop becomes a bit annoying after a while.
That's why I suggested a chat feature a while back but ML512 said that's never going to happen. Requires too much police work or something along the lines of that.
On a separate note, the @ing idea could be cool, but I think having a built in notification system rather than just receiving emails would be beneficial for something like that. The site layout is pretty good as is, it's just missing some features that could add to the experience. Steed's "Live Chat" idea for example would be a snappier alternative to the current night show threads (not that they are bad).
I would love a reputation feature like vbulletin has!
Someone make it happen.
Much ty.
And a better search function.
Pit Row
Wouldn't that be what we call cultural differences?
Oh, and an easy change would be another folder for "greatest hits" threads like the Photoshop ones for example.
I don't think it's that important.
In ones opinion, it's that a guy hits every National, every big event, and gives up the info like, right then.
U wanna know what's up in moto land, u wanna be current, this is the place.
Colors could be pink and purple and this place would still make it.
