...Then don't fucking fix it.
That's the personal code of honour I'd love the world to live by. For example, if you are talking in anime terms, cutting out scenes of the anime from the source material. Or maybe changing the art style halfway through a show. Or, in some extremely horrifying circumstances, a different opening song. I am looking at you, Code Geass.
Say, however, if you were to take this saying and use it to describe a website. Specifically a fanmade novel sharing site that rhymes with Schmattpad. Yes, I'm talking to you, you orange son of a fucking bitch.
Does anyone remember when WP used to look, I don't know, nice? Because I do. I moarn over the loss of my decent looking website everyday, while looking at the piece of shit that it has become. Listen, design staff: I appreciate the thought and all, I do! I really do! But stop fucking around with the layout, it is driving me insane.
I am at the peak of my annoyance, right now, and this new bar at the top is pushing me over the fucking line. I am so close to packing the hell up, vacating the premisice, and moving to Ao3, that's how much of an eyesore these new layouts are.
The my works section is so big that I have to readjust my zoom everytime I move onto a different page just so it doesn't look like I've put it under a microscope, the profiles look like something you'd find on a social media website, and I just... We all know about the profiles and nobody likes them, end of story. And now this fucking five meter long bar at the top, with it's little shadow and bold text...
I don't even like the colour orange. But half of my screen is being taken up by a shithead that can't even contain my full username. YoItsSharkWe... Sounds more scottish than a Free! reference.
Sitting here, with my pink ass sunglasses, sipping a glass of dr.pepper, I'm just wondering about one thing: Where will they strike next? They've poisened our water supply, burned our crops, and delivered a plague unto our houses! Is there no stopping the evil that is the design staff!?
Seriously though, can they not see us all complaining? Rants about this shit are everywhere, yet they have the balls to ask which design we prefer. No option that lets us say "Fucking none, I'd rather hang myself with a broadcloth tie (not even a satin one) than have to look at that everyday", it's just option a or b.
Do we not already have a petition to get the old profiles back? It wouldn't be that hard, considering how easily MAL went back a few weeks and got rid of a hacker on the systems. Wattpad actually has the money to do that.
Once again, I shall reiterate: If it's not broken, don't fucking fix it.

Ryan's Ramblings
RandomIf this book were put into anime terms, it would be a slice of life/comedy, with more black humour than anything else. That's it.
