CMS General Discussion Thread

The new lay-out is a little getting used to: at least I can work on full size images (which saves work: you no longer have to scale down to see if things remain readable).

My issue is with the fact that Career Mode Stories create too little movement on the forum for it to deserve a segment (thread) of its own. With those stories tucked away in a big bunch of topics that do not interest me, it's a little bit harder to find the stories (tags or not).

And this all draws back to the fact that this is mainly a platform to report issues, not experiences or stories. People have become so used to video stories (YouTube or Twitch), but I take most of my football the old-fashion way: I read the scores, I quickly read an article and I'm up to date about the (mostly mainland European) leagues that I follow. That's what a story needs to emulate: as if the reader reads the scores and the occassional article to remain up to date.

I'm not a fan either. I like writing chronologically, so the posts come in the correct order. And now there's no way to skip to the last post, it's getting harder to keep a long story here. It takes forever to scroll to the last post, and sorting the "newest" post first sort of messes up the chronology in it. 

I had planned finishing my Viborg career and hopefully go out with a glorious end.  But these last few weeks I haven't really found the energy to try and overcome the challenges that the new forum has presented for us. I'm considering starting something new once the deadline day transfers are fully up to date in the game. If I can find an interesting Live Start Point. Perhaps I'll get used to the new forum with a new story that is shorter (at first) and easier to scroll and navigate in.
