@Gender: Love you too, MAL! <33

I understand the reason why the 'About Me' section was placed on top, but I feel it's there at the sacrifice of something the MAL community valued more.;; We've lost the ability to see our stats without having to scroll or click.


This only goes for narcissists with obnoxiously long About Me sections, or people who post huge images. For the majority of users it's a non-issue.
and how are u gather that information? my guess is that its common from thin air.

Most people I've come across don't have huge "about me" sections. If anything, they had a few sentences or an image. Your "about me" is top tier though.

The compatibility thing was complete nonsense. I had a very high compatibility rating with several people who I was basically the complete opposite of. They didn't like any of the shit I like, and all of their high rated anime were stuff I hated.

Then I'll come across people who I strongly agree with, they like all the stuff I like, the same genres, or similar, lots of anime in common, etc, and I'll have a low 60% with them.

Whatever formula they use is wrong. It doesn't make any logical sense.
I think they compare scores of anime of the same type of genre or just similar in general, at least from my experience...but ofc it won't be too accurate since genre alone doesn't dictate anime at all

The new version is info too much, the bars make even less sense now - I want my simple number back. Also the way you handle the character list. Its just feel out of place and looks bad.

In general the whole page feels now overloaded and cheap.

The only good thing is that that your "profile" is at top. But that was about it.

I have to agree with what a lot of people are saying. The About Me section being at the top of the page and the stats at the bottom is not a good move. I don't like it! I'd rather have people look at my stats first than read about who I am and stuff. =_=

Hmmmm, I don't really know what to say about the favorites. I love that I can add more but it's kind of taking a little too much space and takes scrolling down even longer.


Pros:
* I like that the reply button for comments is not there if someone disabled the comments section on their profile. Saves me the time in typing a message when it can't be sent.
* I really like how the anime and manga updates are separated.
* The completion and status bar of the anime and manga updates, I like.
* Like that we don't have to scroll all the way down to type a comment.

- For when you guys are going to make the option of showing and hiding the number of reviews and recommendations, can you do that for blog posts also?
- Is it just me or is the profile taking longer than usual to load? Like pictures. It's been happening to my profile, including others, and the avatars at the forums.

For the most part, I like how you guys are approaching the design of the profiles. Definitely improvements need to be made. I kind of feel bad that you are getting bashed a whole lot when you guys are trying to make this better for us to use. So I thank you for trying to improve this site and are willing to read and listen to our problems and try to solve them. Good luck and thanks for your hard work.

wonder how can they make it more "convenient" than what it is now :/
currently you can just click the myList links and go directly to the serie you want to update, or use the edit buttons if it's so recent to be still visible in the last updates..
what are they trying to add this time?...

I really like the statististics this way. Reminds me to finish the stuffs on my watching and on-hold list.

Also imo the location for About Me is better both for people who already wrote/decorated them and the ones who didn't (me!). Looks less boring with those colors.

there isn't really much "new" added to the profile, it just changed the looks, so I think that's why it seems so outrageous to me, cause there's no merit to it looking this way xD
would be nice to let us customise the profile like we can do with the panel, I mean, move things around xD

for now they only plan to allow to hide some parts, not choosing the position yet :(

Future Design Considerations
  • As previously stated, better integration of the other profile tabs into the new profile landing page, possibly with improved designs.
  • Section collapse options, to hide profile areas users do not want to see.
  • Seamless comment posting (without re-directs).
  • Better profile notifications on-site (not only through email).
  • Addition of MALgraph features.
  • More convenient way to update watching/reading series through the panel, not the profile.

Not liking the update that much aswell but why even update the profile when you could at least try to fix some technical issues that the site has been having a long time like site failing to load images for some users or even update the profile pictures.

This seems like something that needed the least attention on this site to me, profile page update.....

I'm liking this change actually, there are really no major differences but still feels like an upgrade. Kind of.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Anyone know why I can no longer see the images on my profile page? It's like the bbcode no longer works..

Aside from that, the change is just change. I see no benefits to the new layout, or real issue either ( I would like my images back though ofc). Someone in web design just justifying their job by moving things around.

Reaction gifs are a negative feedback as well.
Feedback is used as a basis for improvement. So no, simply linking reaction gifs in your posts without anything else is not feedback. It's spam.

This thread has several examples of "feedback".
In that case you are obliged to delete every single positive comment because none of them have any arguments. If you dislike reaction images, you should be fair and delete all the "looks good" trash posts.

Do you have some better metric?

I'm sure more than 70% of the feedback posts in this thread are telling Xinil how much it sucks, and this is with the mods deleting some of the negative posts. I don't really think there's any indication that more people like this than don't while we have a strong indicators for the opposite.
Stop making assumptions lmao. If you think that's the case, then there would be way less pages than it currently is.
Thread was hitting 34 pages and was going backt to 33 pages twice yesterday. Don't talk if you don't know anything. You should remain humble instead of being an ass throwing "lmaos" at everyone while in fact you're the one who is wrong.

It isn't extended though. Less characters and people are displayed. Do you really want to click the arrow every single time? This shit isn't even stored in cookies, so whenever you refresh the page, you have to click all the goddamn arrows once again.

The best part is they deleted some negative feedback that actually had valid points, and were contributing to the thread. When I confronted one of the mods, I was told I was "spewing nonsense"
