The official "I'd rather get banned than like new forum design" thread

[Bunk]

It's not fine in FF 2.0.x

Also headers are massively wasting real estate on my monitor - this whole nice and slick design is totally unCUK

Just out of interest, why do you use FF2? I can understand the IE6 argument, when people are forced to use it at work but I thought you were the boss?

Then you should not be posting in this thread then!!!

Yes, but I like annoying you.

FF2 is a fine browser and I like it - it's much more advanced than IE6, I'd say it is on par with IE7 or even IE8.

Hence design work that uses elements that are not working in FF2 isn't good job.

And why should NickFitz put a lot of work in making this forum accessible to just one visitor who uses FF2 ?

I had one visit from someone using Maxthon the other day. I know nothing about it and I don't plan to either.

This forum is no longer accessible even if you have FF - it's a total turn off: ignoring old browsers this is a clear cut case study on how NOT to do redesigns because it totally ignores target market: it's like building 3D colour LCD TV for the blind - it will only attract robbers.

AtW knows what he's talking about. If you've ever visited his forum you'll know what an expert he is!

I mean, that chimp AtW has as his avatar designed his whole site!!

You didn't answer the question. If you're free to use FF or later versions of IE, why are you on FF2 not FF3?

because AtW wants to play the martyr and get banned simply for being difficult so then he can whinge about how unfairly treated he is... sort of like long term trolling but with regular lunch updates.
