- devinjohnson2, on 10/11/2007, -58/+1007Dare I say it....I prefer the old layout.
- dougbarrett, on 10/11/2007, -20/+657Is it me, or does it seem slower with this new system?
- supernovanights, on 10/11/2007, -51/+624This is madness...
This... is... THREADING! - devinjohnson2, on 10/11/2007, -8/+456I sure wish you could expand all comments by default.
- Cyre, on 10/11/2007, -37/+463It SUCKS! Who wants to have to click a link EVERYTIME someone posts a reply to a message?
PUT IT BACK THE WAY IT WAS! That or make an option to allow us to set how we want the posts! - lhnz, on 11/08/2007, -25/+384This is ***** awful. Pardon my langauge.
- Rizin, on 10/11/2007, -8/+345I agree all this clicking to make things appear is well, Annoying!
- masterskill, on 10/11/2007, -7/+297I'd really like an option to go back to the way it was. Threads are nice, but I hate having to click to see the replys. It also seems to take way longer than it should.
- rainbowjinjo, on 10/11/2007, -8/+281Is there a way to offer up the old system?
- ScottAG, on 10/11/2007, -7/+252It was so great before. Digg, Simple Is Best.
- lhnz, on 10/11/2007, -8/+218I really don't like this.
It looks like there are far too many lines everywhere, and the colour scheme is crap. And the having to click to see replys is annoying. The grease monkey nested comments extension did this so much better. X_X - Aliarse, on 10/11/2007, -12/+208Horrible.
- strictnein, on 10/11/2007, -5/+200Ehhh... it's ok. I like being able to reply to a reply, but everything seems more spaced out, and I like being able to scan through all the comments by default. Is there a way to display everything?
- djAnakin, on 10/11/2007, -8/+194Let's see...
I have to click to read replies... lame.
I have to wait for said replies to load.... very lame.
Each page is double the length it was before... therefore, taking more scrolls to get down.... more lame.
So to summarize.... new updates = lame. - DivisibleByZero, on 10/11/2007, -4/+169First impressions:
1) Don't make the "reply" link span across the entire page. I keep accidentally clicking it and am really capable of aiming the mouse at a single word.
2) I understand the need to not show all 5 billion comments on a page, in order to decrease load times. But you must understand, I'm quite vein. As I'm sure a lot of other Diggers are. I spent an exorbitant amount of time going to threads I've posted on, grepping my own username, then seeing how many diggs my post has, and whether or not anybody's replied. Making my comment invisible means I can't do that as effectively. Would be nice to have an option to sort with threads I'm participating in at the top.
3) The edit box isn't tall enough. It should at least retain whatever size the comment was at before I started editing. - TheAkolyte, on 10/11/2007, -16/+180Yeah this is a steaming pile of stacked siht.
- tizz66, on 10/11/2007, -4/+161Congratulations, it's now virtually impossible to follow the flow of a conversation. Click 'expand full tree' and just try and figure out what's what. Good luck.
Seriously, the annoying @2798234 thing was better than this. Please do something to improve it... - nubnub, on 10/11/2007, -17/+170I like the old thumbs up and down icons
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -39/+184Cool. The digg up/down thumbs look messy to me.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14290% of the space is used for layout elements and the rest is for actual content. This is silly, and ugly. Look at Reddit's comment system, it's much better and easier to read.
- Roger, on 10/11/2007, -2/+140I predict everyone is gonna stop reading/making replies and just start new comments.
- apologeticus, on 10/11/2007, -6/+138The old design was definitely better.
- beastlrd, on 10/11/2007, -2/+128The concept was good but the implementation was horrible. It looks ugly and is incredibly slow. Personally i prefer the old system
- siszam, on 10/11/2007, -5/+130Hate it. I liked being able to see all the comments at once. Now I have to click and wait for them to load. Much less user friendly.
- Jagula, on 10/11/2007, -6/+120Egh. I prefer reddit's style of threading. Very simple.
This is... eh. - insomniac8400, on 11/08/2007, -4/+116This is dumb, can we go back?
- Jennifurret, on 10/11/2007, -5/+103I don't like it. Can we have an option to set it to the old style? Or at least permanently make it opened up?
Not to mention it's pretty ugly looking >_> - theblooms, on 10/11/2007, -2/+98"Dare I say it....I prefer the old layout."
Yeah. For whatever reason, everybody was bitching about the old system. The old system was 10X better. This new system is JUST like Yahoo. Which means it royally sucks ass.
A lesson to you people who were bitching: Be careful what you wish for, because you MIGHT JUST GET IT! - akshay626, on 10/11/2007, -1/+92awful, it takes to long to open up all the replies.
- badbinary, on 10/11/2007, -12/+98this is different, not better. it still sucks ass.
- TyroPyro, on 10/11/2007, -1/+835 clicks to see these comments
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+78Personally I find it extremely annoying to have to click to see the replies. It takes like 5-30 seconds for me and makes it difficult to quickly scan through comment threads. On the up side, it eliminates reply abuse.
As to grepping our own usernames for diggs, wouldn't a reddit-esque user page be great?
e.g., http://reddit.com/user/justinwalden/ - siszam, on 10/11/2007, -3/+79Fetching my ass. Way to screw up your site.
- rehehe, on 10/11/2007, -2/+74Two words Digg ... Usability Testing
- nandasunu, on 11/08/2007, -6/+76I really prefer the old version.. this is too much like slashdot now and the annoying threading is the reason I never look at that site.
- friedcalamari, on 10/11/2007, -1/+70"This system is filled with more bugs than a rain forest"
- mediaroots, on 10/11/2007, -1/+69It's really slow. takes ages to keep expanding everything and it takes ages to load the comments. Bring back the old style!
- lhnz, on 10/11/2007, -2/+70Oh yeah and clicking on thumbs up multiple times causes a "you can't do that" pop up message rather than just not doing anything.
This is so fugly. - MatttK, on 10/11/2007, -2/+69Seriously, this is the worst idea I've ever seen... my god.. I mean, to get to this level of comments just took me far, far too long. And I'm confident almost no one will read what I'm writing, since it's a massive inconvenience to get here.
Well since nobody will be reading this anyway, the following people are gay....... (insert list) - Rhino2, on 10/11/2007, -2/+69I concurn! Less clicking is needed in the comments!
- Shutter, on 10/11/2007, -12/+77Interesting... it's something we'll need to get used to, that's for sure.
- tinselt0wn, on 10/11/2007, -3/+67we need nested comments, but less ugly nested comments
after only a quote or two, it gets way too hard to look at - defectDS, on 10/11/2007, -2/+65Majority of Digg Users: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
- JCSaint, on 10/11/2007, -2/+63It would have been nice to hear that from Dburka without having to click twice.
- insomniac8400, on 10/11/2007, -1/+60You have to love it when you load the page and you have to load each reply separately. Very very dumb.
- xXShadowstormXx, on 10/11/2007, -13/+70This is like ... epic gay.
There needs to be an option to expand comments by default. - phezz, on 10/11/2007, -1/+57How is something faster when i had to click, wait, click, wait, click, wait, click, wait, click, wait just to post here?
- MikeOSX, on 10/11/2007, -9/+63Worse. site. upgrade. ever.
- CraigCarlyle, on 10/11/2007, -2/+56Hopefully they'll have some sort of option to go back to the old style.
- retral, on 10/11/2007, -0/+54I really hate the "Show/Hide replies" buttons below comments, it just makes the site look bad
Honestly: http://www.filehive.com/files/0621/diggcomments.png ?? How can that NOT look bad? -
