So, what do you think of Gleemax?

[Nifft]

As the one human on earth who likes tall, thin windows, I hate the margin code for Gleemax. Their left-hand column disappears (unscrollably) before the empty right-hand column.

Meh, I spend all my time here anyway. They can do as they like.

On Gleemax, the designer blogs are mixed in with fan blogs (which, I'm sorry, I'm not interested in), and I can only see the last couple of hours of posts with no clear method of accessing older posts. I gave up trying to sift through that rather quickly, and now I just rely on the reports here at EN to learn about the latest developments.

I'm in the same boat. Another thing that's lead to me utterly ceasing to read the design blogs is that I can no longer tell which blog belongs to which person, since I never bothered to memorize their forum handles. Really, that's my biggest problem with that list. I can't tell who's who and there are a number of blogs there that I don't care to read.

Again, this is why I'm dying for the RSS feeds. You can then subscribe to the blogs you want, and then browse the other stuff if you feel up to it.

POS!

Hate it. Hate it. Hate it.

In this day and age they should be much further ahead.

PS - I am generally a positive person and in this case I am sure it is a POS.

Edit - I have been reading the designer blogs at WotC but I have stopped reading them as they have been moving to Gleemax. It is too frustrating to use. Seriously!

Well, they've finally added a modicum of organization and formatting to the designer's blog list.

What do I think of Gleemax messageboards (forums.gleemax.com)?

S-S-S-L-L-L-O-O-O-W-W-W ... on dialup.

I'd rather go back to boards1.wizards.com server.

I still miss the NNTP option they used to have.

Me too. I thought making them into "favorites" would make them easy to follow, but usually I can't get to that page due to all the errors Gleemax spews out.

At least Mearls is still posting on the old site for now. Someone let me know if anyone says anything interesting on Gleemax. It's not worth my bother to go over there.

Why? Is there anything new to add on this issue? Or do you just want to highlight any lack of change?
