Arrow might work. Maybe a slightly longer one to retain some of the button's size (but not necessarily all)? how would buttons with yellow arrows look?

<Snipped quote by Ellri> Until I came to RPG, I never called the character's description a sheet, and I've been in the RP world for 12+ years now. CHAR is an abbreviation for something that all roleplayers know, a character. The character description has many names. Character sheet, bio(graphy), app(lication), design, blueprint, etc. A newbie to RPG may never have heard the term CS before, so it would be completely un-intuitive what that tab was for. Keep it as CHAR.
The exact opposite for me - been RPing well over a decade and hardly ever even seen those referred as *other* than CS's and the half-word abbrievation just looks odd to me. Char is a data type; it has nothing to do with RP'ing. It isn't hard to learn one potentially new term when half the site uses it. When in doubt, tooltips. I see text on tags is now black. I approve. (Now to do the same with other buttons of similar color... If there was a criticism in regards to the black text, then I think the shadow effect remnant of the white text (?) needs to be removed - it simply makes the text appear a bit fuzzy.) Preferred the old look of the pagination buttons. Also, those currently highlight to a rather unpleasant white. I also agree on the "Go -->" buttons - these look a bit ... unrefined?

One problem with mobile that I've been noticing is that signatures are still scrollable, even though they don't have a scrollbar. This might be behavior specific to my device, but when I am scrolling through the page and happen to scroll on the sig it scrolls that instead. Is it possible to make the sig area enforce the px limit itself and never contain more than the 200px/whatever it is that is allowed? ALSO: The post writing form needs to be able to scroll. It can be scrolled, but it is clunky and not easy to do. Could a scrollbar be added when necessary on small devices? I'm not sure it'll fix the issue but it wouldn't hurt.

The post scrolls fine for me when swiped (desktop version) - in my experience, catching a scrollbar is a lot trickier...

@LegendBegins Alright, think I fixed the userbar-wrapping issue by just displaying "You" instead of username for now. Does it still wrap for you now?
Nope, everything looks fixed. Thank you.

It could very well just be that Samsung's browser is a bit derpy in regards to scrolling individual forms, resulting in both my sig problem and the post problem. I'll try a third party browser and report back. EDIT: The issue was in fact due to Samsung's browser. Firefox is allowing me to scroll as desired.

On mobile the character tab stacks up weird and clicking between that and OOC is sort of hard without like zooming on my end:0

It's generally unpleasant on mobile. Can't see full signatures. Most avatars are too small. Tabs are a little fucked. And I'm on a big screen, I feel for people using iPhones

@Captain Jordan I don't particularly agree. Safari, at least in my experience, has very few issues, and those of which that do arise are generally due to the server and not the browser. @Ellri I'm in favor of making the buttons yellow. @Mahz Though it may be hard to work with, I guarantee a large number of users use Safari.

@LegendBegins A large number of mobile users, specifically. Obviously the only platforms on which Safari exists are iOS and OS X. On OS X, the mass majority of people will use a third-party browser, leaving iOS, where most people won't care enough to get a third-party browser. Like it or not iOS will most likely be the predominant mobile platform, however I'm not convinced that the number of people using mobile on the guild is so significant that there will be much of a problem.

Most people I know have switched to Chrome on iOS.

I don't agree. Not many people can sit on a computer all day, and the backup is mobile. And I'd say that around half of all mobile users are Apple users.

I don't know anyone that's switched to Chrome. And it's more logical to use Safari, since Apple gives Safari a benefit that other browsers don't have, that makes it faster. I've found all other browser apps to be slower than Safari, and less convenient to use.

I agree. While I had never seen the abbreviation "CS" before coming to this site, it's an easy convention to pick up.

@LegendBegins In my case, literally anyone I know with iOS whose browser has been mentioned or I've seen has switched. Then again, I'd also say there are notably more Androids than iOSes...

Perhaps it's just location, and geography based marketing. I see far more iPhones, and don't know a single person who does not use Safari.

Statistically speaking, Apple is the leading smartphone maker in the US, followed by Samsung with their Android devices. However, worldwide (especially in Asia), Samsung, and Android in general, tends to lead the pack. While Apple and Samsung go back and forth for the title of biggest smartphone manufacturer, iPhones have had a relatively difficult time penetrating international markets where Android devices can offer a wider range of prices and specs. So it does seem that only in America will hordes of people line up for days to pay the iPhone premium.

Generally (perhaps overly so), iOS is predominant in the US and Android is predominant in Europe. Not sure where people are but that could possibly be the root of the differences. Otherwise, it'd be a regional thing which would take far too much effort to worry about. Neighborhood A likes Android, B likes iOS, C are Blackberry hipsters, D are elderly people... etc. EDIT: Ninja'd But Android is far ahead in Europe as well, not just in Asia.

The best dang country on this Earth, too. But in all seriousness, that's correct, though I doubt the Guild sees many internet users outside of the US or Europe. @TheMaster99 He completely beat you to the punch.

Just logged in…wtf with dat font? I liked it…neater. Now it is just…chaos. You italicized the titles? That makes it look…just so weird. The RPGC thing was a nice touch, but personally think the 'latest ICk' is not a good idea. Things seem to crowded.
