Weird. What version of Firefox / Android / what phone model?

(Mine are FF39.0/FF40.0 beta (both work equally well and don't lag), Android 4.2.2, and Samsung Galaxy SII)

[Hank]

I just downloaded Firefox for the first time, so whatever the latest version is. Admittedly, this is an old and battered Galaxy Note 2 so YMMV. And I use whatever the latest version of Chrome is.

I also get lag with Firefox, on my Galaxy S3. I don't use mobile very often though, so I'm not concerned.

(FF 39/Android 4.4.2/Galaxy S3)

[Shienvien]

Added my phone/OS/FF versions above. Lag may also be caused by poor net connection, though; I know that the wifi I was using for testing is fast, to say the least.

I've added mine as well.

[Melkor]

I just noticed! There's a search option with filters! Thanks @Mahz!

[ravenDivinity]

Mahz, do you have any plans on including formatting options and the ability to change chat color in the chat?

[BBeast]

In regards to the new logo, I personally liked the old one better. A big R for Roleplayer Guild made good sense and was unique. I can't say what other people think, though.

[Frettzo]

As a Graphic Designer, I can say the Guild's old logo stuck better. We'd already had it long enough--Changing it at this point, and for a completely different look nonetheless, seems like an unwise move.

There, my two cents as a professional ;)

[NuttsnBolts]

I like the new logo.

It just looks tidy and clean.

[The Grey Warden]

I like the new one, it looks way more professional than the last one. The notepad means that this site is about writing detailed posts, which makes sense.

While people are hating on the logo, I really like it.

[ravenDivinity]

Eh, I'd like the feel of a new, recognizable logo that matches the new site design without being subdued, one that fits the new modern, flat style of logos that we see a lot nowadays and one that feels fresh. I don't see the move as unwise, and I'm not particularly attached to the old one. I think we can improve on the current one, however.

@Frettzo

What logo are yall talking about?

I've made some logos for the guild years ago when I was just a wee lad, but they're gone and lost. And quite shit, to be honest. So yall prob aren't talking about those.

Before redpanda made an image for us today, all we had was some cold grey text that said Roleplayer Guild at the top of the site. That the "logo" on yall's minds?

@Mahz

The one that looks like red panda created it, from the URL that is.

[Mahz]

Yeah, I'm wondering what the "old logo" is that they speak of.

I think that they are talking about this (?)

Oh. The green R I assume. @Mahz

It looks mind-numbingly generic. It's your typical notepad-sign for me.

It doesn't associate with roleplayerguild.com.
It associates with untitled.txt.

@Shienvien

It looks way better than just having the words 'Roleplayerguild' with no picture or nothing to go off of. You just have to deal with the new image.

@The Grey Warden

By that logic, nobody has any say in the changes made. Here, every user has a voice.

@Shienvien

I agree with you. The old circular logo was highly associated with the Guild, though on my tab in Chrome, it still uses the green R.
