ChiefsPlanet Any board changes soon?

wutamess · 01-02-2015, 05:16 PM

I was thinking... I only come here once every 2-4 months and when I do it's the same old board. By that, I mean no disrespect but isn't there something to make the board more "user friendly" or updated?

Like real time post updates on posts instead of having to hit refresh. Facebook "like or dislike" buttons to go along with the rep system?

I found myself wanting to like a post of someone's but I then remember the rep system I'd have to go through a couple of clicks and no one else can see my rep for that user. More times than not, I just don't do the rep because of that reason.

These are just my mudslinging thoughts and wanted to know if there were any upgrades coming?

Please understand I'm just offering suggestions instead of slinging mud.
This place is more like the older dwindling church that doesn't change with the times instead of evolving to include "quickies for convenience" for the younger ADHD generation.

I've considered starting an "AG Planet" several times just to try to put that god damn antique pile of shit in the scrap pile. Their banning of a couple posters recently just added more fuel to the fire. If I was 10 years younger, I'd do it just to do it.

Now THAT'S a message board. Seriously. How to bake a potato in foil, watery canned beans, party games for grownups, corn pickers, swine diseases. Spend a little time there and you are transported to a simpler time and an easier pace. God bless the Midwest and her fine people.

How bout an app? I hate getting on here with a browser while at work (I don't sit in front of a cpu screen all day like most), so an app would be nice.

No joke! I tried tapatalk once... Never again. My god.

Hell, if CP made an app, and it was actually decent, I'd pay a couple bucks for it. And I've never in my life paid for an app before.

I mentioned the same. I'd pay for it in a heartbeat.

I want the free version.

CP is on software that's 5 years old, so there aren't a ton of new features coming out for it at this point. The upgrade is do-able, but it's a massive amount of work, and a lot of the features that HAVE been added over the years would we wiped out.

So in short, I wouldn't hold your breath.

jonzie04 · 01-02-2015, 05:36 PM

Shit I'd be happy just to be able to use the search button again. And for the site to not crash on game days. But i'm sure that stuff costs money.

Well, it's not going to upgrade itself...

Even if you get volunteers to split the workload up, you would still have to grant everyone that worked on it, access to the Server. More cooks in the kitchen, more chance to screw something up.
