Okay, obviously I found it. Not necessarily a criticism, but it took a bit to find the links to the forum. Ah well, I am frightened by change. But I like the new format. Good stuff, guys! Is anyone as startled as I was?

Damn straight. I was vaguely hopeful when I saw "Forum Rules" only to be denied. Then ironically, my cat brushed against the right side of my monitor and lo and behold... :O
 
I always look at the top still :eek:
 
So I take this as I am the only one that types halflife2.net/forums into the address bar. :|

Possibly. I still link to the home page. Perhaps it's my fault for showing such insane loyalty to the news, rumors and updates our fine HL2.net staff give us everyday. :thumbs:

I always use a divining rod still.

Sometimes a enlist a psychic/remote viewer.

Occaisionally I have to resort to a metal detector.
 
I always check the comments of at least one newspost and can navigate my way to here like that :)

I looked at the front page for the first time in about 4 months yesterday, good old firefox bookmark toolbar!

nope, i didnt notice the site was different until I saw the thread :D
 
Bah, I'm so used to typing /forums that i keep using it on a site with a messageboard, instead.
 
im about ready to change my bookmark from the hl2 homepage to the forums pages cuz i never read the main page anyway
 
i made a similar complaint in a thread i created.
something needs to be done, if not for us, for the new people who may be lost and stuff :|
 
How can you miss it in the top right corner :O

People still go to the homepage? I just have the forums as my favorite, I haven't been on www.halflife2.net in forever

me too. im just too impatient to have to load the front page and then the forums
 
If it's any consolation, I go to the newspage everytime :p
 
I am truly sorry you guys don't head on over to the newspage more often; you are missing some valuable information on impressive MODs in the work ;) . I honestly don't see how you guys can miss the forums link, It took me less then ten seconds. However, I can see how people can get lost with all the links included on the front page. Maybe something can be done about it.

Gothax, do you have mod priviledges? That guy spamming the forum could do with a ban... Not sure if any mods are on.

what guy?
 
SimonomiS said:

why are you looking at me like that? :|

/me slowly backs away.

anyway, people don't respond that well to changes.
 
I think the problem is not for new users but for users whom are used to the layout :)
