FEATURED How Can ABW Improve As A Site?

[L.L.R.J.]

Anyone use the Abw app?

ABW has an app?

ABW has an app?

I think he means when you can turn the web address into a shortcut app thingy on your home screen

 

[Goldie]

We had a temporary app back in 2019. The app dev was charging a lot of money per month for it, wasn't worth it.


Now that I know how to build apps myself, I'll cook something up when the time's right.

Not sure if its just me but Im having trouble scrolling (i use a laptop)... When I press the up or down key to browse posts, it stutters/judders and skips posts...

I use the the 2 finger touchpad on the laptop for fast scrolling. Or if I got a mouse then it's the wheel

1. ABW is maintaining nearly the same traffic, I'm surprised tbh. The Candy Shop website is already doing solid numbers too.


2. I've thought about it for a min. After building other projects this year I felt it was right to make the change on ABW.

Oh you really are the site owner, I thought it was just some logo next to your name, LMFAOOOO!

1. This site is 5 years old?
- have you made other websites before ABW
- how hard/ expensive is it to maintain

2. Any other site ideas that you wanted to make
- sell products
- a hub for concerts

3. Is it just you (Only one guy) or a partnership or a group of people that created and are mainting the website?

4. Any big offers you accept or turned down

5. Any advice you would give others that want to create their own website


I know I troll and kid around, but these are my final genuine questions

Highlighting text in the text editor became difficult lol it's the same color as the background. Any chance to fix that?

Not sure if you did anything @Goldie but its smooth as fck now...

I know I troll and kid around, but these are my final genuine questions

1. In a couple months ABW will be 9 years old.

2. The main platforms so far within the ecosystem:

ABW
The Candy Shop
Howmanymics.com
A Black Marketplace (im actually submitting the app to Apple right now, it should be available for apple users soon)


3. Just me

4. of course

5. Spend less time thinking and more time working.

I think the site can improve if Goldie judges the Dolph vs Herbo versuz

Hey @Goldie it's too much going on at the top of the page between featured content, the polls and latest post, got all that before you get to the sub forums, the latest posts not needed.

I was thinking that too, maybe move that to the side where the calendar events are (though others might use calendar events, whereas I dont)...

 

[Goldie]

Everybody agrees? The latest posts should be moved back to the bottom of the page?

I’d agree with that. I don’t look at latest posts very often. I usually go straight to notifications to check up on my watched threads, then to the forums directly.

 

[RandomOne]

I check the latest posts but I can just select the what's new at the top if you decide to move it

I didn't notice but was there an add on to hide those so members can just go into preferences and choose what they'd want to see on the home page? People have different tastes

 

[Sky Davis]

I’m on the fence but my thing is, if somebody is going to post it’s better if they see that other stuff first

I’m sure a lot of people do not scroll to the bottom of the page so they won’t even see stuff

I’m in favor of keeping it the way it is

Just get used to it we clearly haven’t yet

No more Inflated candy shop numbers so now I dominate the most reactions weekly

This my site
