This has been totally broken for ages.....people have left loads of rep and comments and all that appears are grey tiles and I am stuck on the same score....maybe new posters don't count for much....or don't count for much rep...but nothing?!
You have to be a mod or "old boy" to get your rep to count.....seems to be a Socialist Rep Cap strategy....nice and leveling...
The site is broken....in more ways than one...there are many forums on the net, ROG was was on track to be something different....that has been derrailed...
Someone with vision and imagination needs to take a look at this site....because whoever is in charge at the moment is very limited in many ways.
Using Firefox, the box stays white when I click in it. I have to set some dark color of text to see what I'm typing -- with my fumble fingers, that's necessary. When ready to post, I have to set to a light color to work against the black forum background. That's two color changes per post.
No rep here either.
Just noticed - color change goes away with every new paragraph. Need to repeat the dark color often during a post
I think these annoyances are the sort of divergence that comes with a major change. Later revisions converge to a good, user friendly system in most cases. Unfortunately, the ROG forum does not have the history of that sort of improvement. Still too many labels and buttons with varying languages.
One effect I think many users are seeing is that there are fewer responses because those who would help are put off by the annoyances.
IE 11 W8.1 white box typing is black letters , attachments work fine in my other posts , template for forum has not changed much , Spanish is fastest growing language in USA. I booked marked forum site before it was revised , bookmark still says site still under revision , check back on oct 3 2014 same in W10 preview IE 11 but forum site still very slow , that's my major complaint , to slow to load pages I have a 100Mbps web service , and still this forum site takes for ever to load
