What do yins think?
Wee, more ugly shit on the left.

It's... been twelve hours.It's Saturday morning.
"Finally," Mahz explains to his cat, "Got some free time."
He swallows some amphetamine like Pop-Eye with spinach, strolls through Mexico City to the local Starbucks, and grabs a seat in a corner couch that overlooks the adjacent avenue. After an hour watching the chicas guapas walk by and contemplating if maybe this is the week he resumes his Spanish lessons, he snaps out of fantasyland and opens up GUILD_IDEAS.txt to pick some features to knock out today.
He starts his finger at the top of the list of frequently requested features and drags it down, reading aloud each line that hasn't yet been crossed out.
"Unread-post tracking system... mobile support... make things less shitty..."
Jesus. Where are the non-critical side-quests? Just trying to warm up on a Saturday morning, not win a Webby. He continues down the list.
"...email notifications... better pagination... implement user statuses". Great. User statuses. A nice, lukewarm feature. Can kill it in an hour and then switch to a harder task once the noodle's all lubed up.
So he begins. Smooth sailing, really. Encounters a few technical hangups as usual, but they're no real barrier. Blows through them. Fixes some ancillary bugs. Responds to some Mahz Dev Journal posts. Even shitposts on Iwaku. Altogether glowing because he's killing it today. An unstoppable force.
He checks his watch, wondering if it's even been an hour yet.10:34pm
It's... been twelve hours.
"Fine", Mahz reasons, "my Saturday is surely a reasonable sacrifice for this feature".
Starbucks announces that it's closing soon and Mahz's body reminds him that it's coming down soon, yet he squeezes out enough progress to launch a basic version of the feature and begins his walk home. It begins raining.
The next day he logs into the Guild to see how the users are liking the feature. He sees a topic in Spam that refers to the new user status system. Cool, get to see what some of my favorite users think!
>looks like shit fagit
Sorry @Mahz D:
I don't think it's a bad feature.
The coding for everything is impressive, but I guess I can't shut up about how much I don't like the style of the sidebar X:
