BuzzerBeater Forums

Dear BB developers. I would be very thankful if you will take a couple of minuets from your time and hear what I have to say. The new site is amazing but comes with certain problems I hope you can change. I'm from Israel. Been here for 6-7 seasons and paid supporter fee for the last two.

1. When I log on for more then 15 minuets, and sometimes less then 15, my user gets logged off, for no apparent reason. This never happened to me on the old site. it happened only when i didn't touch the site for a long time, but it just happens during looking through the site.

2. I get confused too much from the forums. In every basic Forum on the web the mapping is pretty easy and you can find any topic you look for immediately. Here it's not that organized. There are not enough threads on the main page, and it's not easy to maneuver. I hope this is the right place to say what I have to say.

3. I really hate (and that's a big word) the new short menu. To see my roster i need to move through 2 different pages. I haven't figured out how to get to my training page easily. I wish that it will stick to my long menu and i wouldn't have to select "long menu" every time. you can put it in the settings or something like that. I love the "manage my team" page - that's a great Idea, but you can put a reference to other pages there like training.

4. I guess you already know that but still I'll say it - the player's position is hidden somewhere beneath the player's name.

5. Please please please bring back the notification on the forum button if there are new messages or not. I loved it in the old site.

To conclude I'll say I love BuzzerBeater with all my heart. I'm devoted to my team and I'm truly and utterly obsessed.

This pretty much sums up what I feel about new design too.

This didn't change in the new site. The forum structure is still the same. You mgith try to use the 'search' function in the forums to get to the desired topics faster, maybe that helps a bit.

You can click on all headers in the Manage My Team page. Clicking on 'training' will get you to the training page.

Those never disappeared. You will still get " you have x unread messages ", when someone responds to you in a folder in your favorites.

I don't know about the technical problems in your post. 4) is known, but I've never heard of 1) (I could have missed it), maybe you could open a topic in the bugs forum for that problem.

I guess number 1 has been discussed in Bugs as random logging out and should have been fixed.

It's certainly not.

Partially true. I don't remember prorities from old site. That could confuse people a lot at first.

It's certainly not.

It depends on when he experienced it not when he sent the post.

The priorities were in the old site as well. The only thing that changes is that when you post in a topic now, the priority automaticly changes to high, since it's assumed that you want to keep an eye at the topic when you post in it. You can change it back to normal anytime if you want.

In the old site you could use priorities as well by changing it manually

I can confirm that it isn't. I experienced it yesterday AND today just an hour ago or so. And it was while I was actively doing stuff.

Can we keep this to one thread, please?
