There IS a new design coming, that's why I'm busy coding the templates for it and while i'm doing it i thought i'd ask about quite an important design feature of the skin. Believe it or not there's a password protected clone of metropol sitting in a directory just under this one which has bits and piece of the skin working, and other bits just aren't. It is coming though, and soon.
I'm all giddy with excitement. Is there pink innit?
There's got to be BBC 3 pink innit if there aint i'll loosen Ninis muzzle.
Mental anxiety, Mental breakdowns, Menstrual cramps, Menopause... Did you ever notice how all our problems begin with Men?

Once upon a time it would have been me to put people in their place. I love Hyma - purely for his arrogance. I bet he's timid and introvert in person, though!

It's fine as it is. The username is presented on the left as well as on the right, so I don't particularly buy into the ignore lists and whatnot reason. Content is still key even in this forum of personalities, because if said personalities were to stop producing said content then it wouldn't make a toss where the userbox was as nobody would be reading anyway.

I don't know whether it's the case or just the feeling I get; but Metropol seems to have had its day. As has TV Forum.
Maybe it's to do with people growing up, moving on and generally not giving a toss about television. I can honestly say that I haven't sat down and watched TV for several months. Anything I do watch is either on YouTube or the BBC's I-Player. The latter only occasionally.
Perhaps one day, maybe even this summer, we should organise a Metropol Meet. It would be a very interesting experience to meet other forum members in person. I suspect I'll be meeting Mr Harvey before the year is out anyway.

I'm left-leaning, but I like it on the right hand side. Once you've seen one avatar, you've seen them all, and there's only a few people on here who do have an avatar. The name of the poster is above the post anyway, so knowing who said it isn't a problem.
I also think having it on the right distinguishes / is distinctive from other fora like DS or even TVF, so I think it being there serves some sort of symbolic purpose, however minimal. It looks kinda modern.

Exactly! It's about discussing the people discussing television!Metropol isn't about discussing television though.Jamez wrote:Maybe it's to do with people growing up, moving on and generally not giving a toss about television.
