Why not use an SVG for the logo (if possible) as the current PNG file size is huge, using an SVG can surely improve the load time and quality as well.
rel="icon" attribute should be added for Android Chrome and Apple, so that when we create a site shortcut it appears with the site logo/favicon.
You mean sgv for PG Logo / favicon ?.I will look into it

When you enter Gaming General, the entire page is first filled up with individual "Hub" pages for console/PC.

People usually don't post a lot in those pages anyway, is there any way to either make those tiles small or just axe them altogether ?
Yes axe then we will. Give prefixes.

This has now been implemented
The presence of square brackets [ ] in the tags is making them hard to identify. Maybe they can be removed with a bold text inside and a reduced border-radius of, say, 2px. Plus a slightly increased padding. That will make them look better.

The issue you have faced: Imgur image hotlinking still seems to be an issue
What you expect to happen: Imgur image hotlinking should work fine i.e. imgur.com/asda.png
Image : General Feedback and Comments: AFAIK, imgur allows hotlinking to forums (not website content hosting however) so I am not sure why it is returning a 403 when hotlinking imgur on PG, getting in touch with imgur might be worth a try?

Noo... Why did you guys change everything? It was fine as it is.. *Old Man noises*

Seriously tho, I really like what you guys have done here, but please don't ever stop. Keep improving always. Gaming has evolved a lot since the time I joined this place over a decade ago, and even though I'm not much of gamer anymore, I still love that you guys are catering to the new gen.

If you could, please make it a little less cluttered and more minimalist like the old one. For example, in the following screenshot (btw, love that I don't have to go to a third party for image hosting anymore) the latest thread listing seems a bit unnecessary and the descriptions of the sub-forum are too long. Makes the stuff look too big and clunky.

Some minor usability things I noticed:

1 - The Discord button (which can be disabled) overlaps the 'top' and 'bottom' buttons on the page.



2 - The username bar becomes a separate header after you log on, on top of the main title header.



It would be better if it stays on the same header as the login and register buttons.

I haven't used much but want to say that I am loving it. And just a tip, don't move market place any further down like the last time, it doesn't make sense since it is the bread n butter of this platform like it or not.

Only faced one issue till now where the last page of a thread wasn't opening. Seems to be working now.

I like how I can copy paste images into the reply box, So next-gen! 📺

Another feature I like is that clicking the Latest Threads link on the dashboard you can see the list of all the latest threads.

Love the work you all have put into PG, So far so good.

Edit: Oh damn that laughing tv emoji is something else now.


Idk why visiting this from "Visit Deal Thread" from one of my trader scores takes me to the Pakgamers maintenance landing page from few days ago.

    Alan wake 2 is yet to recover it's development costs. Due to no physical release and no steam launch.
    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
