I know there's the "old archive" and the stylesheet has improved, but what the hell is Woxxy going for here? Why make an archive look so radically different from the website it's archiving?
Didn't he get the message the *last* time he sprung this Web 2.0 nonsense on us?

>> No.8282894

Who gives a shit? Just click the old version link.

>> No.8282897

But it's completely fine.
I only didn't like it when it was white since it was hard on the eyes, if you seriously still have a problem with it you're literally autistic.

>> No.8282902

Use the old version to build up your own private archive.
Point your archive here.
never deal with sites run by shitty /a/ attentionwhores again except 4chan

Set it to update once every two seconds and never miss a beat.

I do not think it means what you think it means.

They're the _same_ features, just implemented in ENTERPRISE QUALITY PHP instead of Perl for no real reason.

I strongly feel that you're showing symptoms of autism.

Woxxy is bored, or he's doing it on purpose, you know, attention whoring and stuff.

I could understand his bullshitting about "Fuuka is too bloated, I'll rewrite it in Java", but the frontend was completely fine and there was absolutely no reason to break compatibility with userscripts.
The archive is at a point where there's very little you can improve interface wise.

The 4chanX guy is currently pressuring woxxy to revert some of the most bullshitting changes in the interface.

Which one, Aerosmith or Erika/Mayhem?

At the risk of bringing the /g/ drama here, what happened? Is it true aeosynth pretty much conceded to Mayhem?

>> No.8282958

Or maybe he's trying to rewrite it in an easier language for him as well as tidying up the interface. Ask him for an old version stylesheet for user scripts.

Mayhem

>>8282954
Yes, aerosmith gave up on mayhem. I would have done the same

>> No.8282976

Isn't there an easy solution like rewriting it in PHP, making it output in the same style as the old archives by default and adding a theme selector?

Has anyone got a link to the original archive dump from eksopl?

I'm hoping someone uploaded it somewhere.

Yes, that's what a competent dev would do.

>> No.8283004

>>8282996
You should try emailing him. eksopl@gmail.com

Make sure to tell him that you hope he feels better, and make sure that you got a ton of bandwidth and a good machine. Archives use up tons of it.

>> No.8283014

Why do people assume PHP is a good language? It's the sepples of the Web. Perl can certainly cause headaches, but it's not the worst language. W.T. Snacks had this problem too. Anything Perl, he rewrote in PHP. Why? It works well. It's just as efficient with a reasonable CGI/mod_perl set-up.

If you're going to be elitist, at least do it about something worthwhile.

Just use the old archive he set up, there's been way too much drama related to this already.
