Gah! I’m going to go sob quietly in the corner now, and lament the slow destruction of the MCS I fell in love with. The one where there were interesting discussions and pissing contests in the picture comments, the one where I didn’t feel claustrophobic every time my home page loaded. (MCS is my homepage, and will remain it until I can find a new site that doesn’t shrivel my testicles every time I see it.)
The one that didn’t look like something corporate America used as toilet paper. This color layout could have been pilfered from the home page of a goddamn struggling small business.
It’s fugly, and I hate it.

The other design wasn’t sleeker, it was just easier to use and look at. And didn’t make half the people who have been posting here for more than a month want to drive drunk through a busy playground with a snow plow.

Someone should do that. And post the pictures here. Maybe the redeeming light from those will save this website from the electronic doom that awaits it. Regardless…

I’ve just been ranting. If we could return to that original layout from, say, a year ago, but also use those new reply functions and up/down voting systems, MCS would again be solid gold. That, and maybe make the ads scoot over a little bit. I always felt like there wasn’t enough room to breathe with those damn things right next to you, staring you down. maybe just a couple millimeters over on each side. But I’m just fucking nitpicking now. Get rid of these ass ramming design changes and eye fucking color schemes first.
Unless you want this site to be filled with hipster pseudo liberals, instead of the usual members of the “who gives a fuck, we’ll still make our terrible black jokes” party.
