Also known as the place you rant about how bad MAL is without the side panel. XD



I'll begin. When I came on this afternoon, unsuspecting of any of this, I about had a heart attack when I loaded the page. I do not take changes to websites well, I've noticed. So, yeah, I tried refreshing the page, hoping it would go away. Didn't work. I tried going to an old link to the site, hoping the cookies preserved it. Didn't work. And finally, I tried going about my business as usual, trying to ignore it. Didn't work.

Annoyances I have now:
  • Every time I refresh a MAL page, the entire Internet page(s) shuts down, disappears, and takes 5 minutes to come back.
  • The page is waaay to wide! It plays tricks on my eyes.
  • I know I'm on MAL, so the giant logo rubbed in my face every time I come on... Not needed.
  • Those bubbles. What the hell are they for? I feel like I'm on some kiddie game site with them.
  • And the big one. MY SIDE PANEL, DAMN IT, WHERE IS IT?!?!?!


Your turn, guys. ^.^

I came on all happy looking to update my reading of 20th Century Boys and it was like being punched in the face.

What happened to my MAL? I used to be able to navigate the page with ease and now I am confused about so many things. I'm hoping I wake up tomorrow and this was all a bad dream.

Oh and Community & Industry don't work for me. I'm also having a hell of a time trying to update anything.

I don't see any bubbles .. so I am unaware of what that refers to, but it sounds dumb.

My resolution ends with the page. There's only like half centimeter extra space. But I see the bubbles above so I can imagine.

SIDE PANEL. ;_;
It was so much easier. :'(

I agree to the person who said that this site (I'm now calling MAL "this site" because all of a sudden I was estranged to it) looks like MySpace. Because of those navis.

Hm, I think it's too wide- I especially changed my pictures on my profile, and now it looks awful... I just wasted my time -.-
And one more thing- side panel was much more easier and I knew when someone sent me message.

i completely agree with what everyone's been saying

but what irks me is that this came with NO NOTICE at all
(or maybe there was and i wasn't paying attention?? o_O)
shouldn't there have a notice telling his the the look will change or something

well anyway.... i so miss the side panel.
it was way more convenient at the side rather than the top
and i liked seeing everything at once right away
it was easier to see new pages
a "top" panel= VERY inefficient

hard to believe, but i know some people actually like the new layout....
(look like facebook or myspace... o_O)

so i think a suggestion would be for MAL to make a toggle button or something
then users who like old view (US!!) can see our beloved side panel
and users who like new view can use the top panel

perfect solution, right?

When you click on 'clubs' it always used to take you to your invites, and then you'd have to click another link to get to the actual clubs you're in.

Now, you don't have to do that.
