      You can always try relocating your wireless router to an open and higher area. Keep it out of cabinets and enclosed spaces.

    • RE: The image-auto-resizing function.

      Cute dogs are always the most vicious. My thousand dog bites are proof, I swear.

      I was under the assumption that clinking an attached image would full size it… or is he talking about another type of image? Linking to images maybe?

    • RE: Arlong Park gets a Fishman Island upgrade

      So it's more efficient to you, but it isn't for others, so why can't a change be made. My proposed change would not further inconvenience you not to mention it would create a straight line pointing people to the proper sections of the website. http://arlongpark.net would point to the news, apforums.net would point to the forums. All you would have to do is change your bookmark for apforums to arlongpark. Also for new/future users, this would show clearly what apforums.net is supposed to be, a discussion forum.

      The example of the search engine was merely an example of the role of efficiency and speed in web design. Regardless of what type of website we are, I don't see why we shouldn't want to load our pages as quickly as possible and have our layout/design be less complicated and more intuitive.

      Let me give you two scenarios:

      A: http://arlongpark.net takes you to the Wiki and has a link to http://apforums.net which is the One Piece news tab. On http://apforums.net there is a link that takes you to the actual forums.
      B: http://arlongpark.net takes you to the One Piece news tab and http://apforums.net takes you to the actual forums. Somewhere on both http://arlongpark.net and http://apforums.net there is a link to the Wiki that used to be http://arlongpark.net.

      Which one makes more sense?

      What do "drones" have to do with our discussion? If we wanted to make things as easy as possible for them we should really be directing them to mangastream's website in any case =p

      The people who are discussing the change are not coming here for the news, they're coming here for the forums and discussions. If I only came here for the news, you're right I've been actually helped(though I could argue why we should post news about spoilers too then but that's not on the table right now), but apforums was never about being a news site. It's a forum and it's fair to expect to be taken to a forum when anyone clicks their bookmark, types in the link, clicks the link through a google search or finds the link on http://apforums.net.

      EDIT: I'd like to point out I am totally handing zKaiser money under the table.
      EDIT 2: I apologize for assuming you got worked up, my fault, this is a good talk.

      @Uncle:

      I'm pro-News page because the hassle is so abysmally small that the sheer act of bitching about it is ridiculous. How little time do you have on here that you can't spare three extra seconds (if that) to get to the index page? If you're running THAT low on time, perhaps you shouldn't be on here to begin with. I mean that's just freaking ridiculous.

      Actually good webdesign is all about efficiency. Why do you think google got so much more popular than yahoo? It was easy to use, direct to the point, and quick. GUI design in general is about efficiency actually so this goes past web design.

      Why are you so worked up anyway?

      @Monkey:

      The last thing we need is 2-3 people bitching!!! STAT STAT!!!

      Don't you know that one complaint online corresponds to one million complaints in real life?! So it's two to three million complaints!

      @zKaisier:

      How good of a One Piece fan are you if you don't know by instinct? Who doesn't check Mangastream first? Come on.

      I actually really like the chrome extension All Mangas Reader. Don't even need to go to mangastream to check anymore.

      Given by your response, wouldn't it be more logical that http://arlongpark.net/ point to the news tab and apforums.net point to http://apforums.net/forum.php then?

      It's really not that hard to change those two around, just a bit of time. It'd save 2-3 people's bitching at least <_<

      @RobbyBevard:

      If you're a One Piece fan, visiting a One Piece message board, wouldn't you want to know when the latest One Piece chapter is out?

      Seems pretty useful to me.

      Isn't that the point of the main Arlong Park webpage?

      @RDarren:

      Unfortunately, those "News" are connected and important to the "Forum". Just bookmark it. The others who have complained about this one before are now satisfied with the bookmark-solution.

      Actually the news isn't entirely important to the forum such as the news that the new chapter was out. I was thinking of this argument myself and it doesn't quite fly… there's also the news post about the new anime opening.

      @RobbyBevard:

      I'm amused because the amount of effort required to bitch about the news page even once, in the act of typing out letters and hitting the "reply" button, is equal or greater than the effort of just… clicking a tab or updating a bookmark.

      So what if it takes more effort to complain about a feature than just to work around it? It doesn't make the feature any less redundant or bothersome as some may find it.

      @Zkaiser:

      I don't know if anyone else cares or anything but could we get the apforums.net url to lead directly to the forums?

      Some people have pointed out that you can set your bookmarks to http://apforums.net/forum.php if you want it to directly point to the forums.
