EpicNPC thread system became worse on mobile (stop changing the features)

[AbbeyDawn]

You guys haven't fixed my complain last time about removing picture (the picture still there as attachment even though I already removed it, I can only remove it completely on PC)

And now I see another 2 problems with EpicNPC website. I use mobile 99% when making thread on EpicNPC.

1. I can't put picture in a place that I want, it's always ended up as attachment.

2. The picture became so small that people have to click it first to read the text.

I don't know why you guys keep changing features that was already so good. It's almost impossible now making a good and attractive thread while using mobile, because there are many limitation of features.

I hope you guys make it normal like as it used to be. And am I the only one complaining about this issues? Or am I the only one who notice it?

1. I can't put picture in a place that I want, it's always ended up as attachment.

Yes, by default the image will be an attachment, however once you upload there is an "insert" button for each attachment thumb. Click that to insert the full size image into your post.

2. The picture became so small that people have to click it first to read the text.

For mobile users, we auto-resize the images to a smaller size so they don't take the full screen. However this should only occur when images are posted into the chat system, not when posting a thread. We'll double check this.

1. Well that "insert" system is kinda useless and takes a lot of effort, especially if the thread is long. You have to scroll the thread up and down and up again. Just use the old system, you click where you want to put the picture and then upload the picture.

2. The screenshots are from a thread, and it's still small. Even on the message, I don't think you should make it small. If people want to upload small picture, they can just use attachment feature. Again, the old system is a lot better.

1. Most users post a few screenshots of the account they're selling so defaulting to thumbs at the end of the thread makes threads more uniform on the site. It's also faster since the seller doesn't have to worry about image placement.

I understand there are many sellers that use large graphics to post details about their services. They can still do that. They just have to click the location then want and click "Insert" to post the full size image. This is a much smaller group of sellers that do this, so unfortunately it will require a little more clicking now.

2. In a thread, if "Insert image" is used, it should load the full size image for both mobile and desktop. We're investigating this and will change it for mobile if it's auto-resizing.

For chat, it will still auto-resize for mobile users so they can read their chat messages. If a user needs to see the full size image, they can simply click it.

Great! Now after I clicked "insert" the picture not even show in the thread, it's only in the attachment. And when I want to remove it, I can't, because there's no attachment option on mobile to remove it. I can only see it when I'm on PC.

Update supposed to make things easier, but after EpicNPC update the website systems a few times since 2 years ago, it's always make the website worser and hard to make a simple thread.

We'll be releasing an update in 48 hrs. Most of these issues will be fixed.

 

[EpicNPC]

An update was made to the attachment system.

The ability to insert full size images on mobile has been added as well as the ability to manage and delete images from the thread, also mobile.

@EpicNPC, Excuse me why was the edit thread option removed?

 

[EpicNPC]

It's was moved. It's in the gear icon in the top right of your thread.
