Something big happened. - The official updates thread.

[mark624]

There are several problems with the new site....
Here some of them:
Not suitable for tablet,
It is not easy to surf within it and certain chapters of the menu are difficult to find,
I think I will come across some more ....



QUOTE=DevTeam;1507266]Apologies for the downtime between approx. 3:30am and 4:30am. This was due to the planned website upgrade.

Hopefully due to this downtime occurring during such an ungodly hour, it didn’t cause any inconvenience.

Unfortunately, as we loaded up the shiny new E-I that we’ve been working on for so long, a small problem arose with the data migration.

The correct technical term for this problem would be a GUBU.

As we are under strict instructions not to cause downtime into this morning, we have had to reluctantly abort our mission to bring you the brand new E-I today. We will now fix the small issue and then re-schedule the launch of the new website for another appropriate time slot.

We the Dev Team are very much gutted and frankly embarrassed about this!

Don’t suppose there is any possibility of us not getting slagged mercilessly over this?

positive:
ability to see when upcoming favourites begin their next tour

negative:
reduced search functionality
(tbh that really should be enough, how did anyone think that a directory upgrade with fewer search options would be an improvement?)

restore the ability to search by favourites. I realise that we can work around this by using the definitions of each favourite as a search heading, but I can't find a way to search for more than one favourite at a time.

restore the submission date of a review - a dozen vague reviews magically appearing in a few days from previously unheard of punters now carry the same weight as a seal of approval from top reviewers over a few months

the UI is dominated by photos and location info - can't shake the feeling the Dev team got inspiration from Uber or Trip Advisor. emphasis totally misplaced.
why would anyone care about popular locations? I'm not going to decide to drive to Ardee because it's a popular red-light district.

confessions. somebody requested Fr. Casey? seriously?
Father Ted more like.

Which is wrong, they put the work in and so should reap the extra rewards. I don't believe this is fair. To be fair

You won't be alone. From what I gather people like to see the number of reviews, then scan them to see how many are negative, then check they aren't from people with one review or whatever. The new system doesn't really allow that. Curious.

I just had a quick look. its depressingly bad. Not just the map, the format, the huge emphasis on pictures, the lack of coherence in the flow. No escort website around the world uses that format because people who look for escorts have the patience of a small newt in summer. They won't search around a profile. Reviews seem to be something you have to search for, which, when compared to the huge shots of various bits of ass, will be something that doesn't get searched for often.

Pretty pictures do not make up for the lack of visible background information traditionally used to make a decision. at the moment it's very hard to distinguish between an established profile. I had to use a bookmark to get into the site tonight, I cannot access through the main homepage. On an iPad the size is off, as are the options. I could go on but I'm boring myself. Please reintroduce the option to view the site in its old format.

Well said.

I am on iPad , cannot find my own advert using my criteria >> D2 , 30-39 year old , GFE , 161€ (<< ??!!) and up etc.

Just now on iPad , clicking on 'Escorts' tab , soon as page opens , it closes down and I am back to screensaver of iPad.

Bad. Bad. Bad.

I've just looked at your ad. It looks well, but the pictures take over most of the page, your reviews are on a tab and the text is below. It just doesn't make sense, it needs to be alongside or condensed with your review count alongside. All of the profiles look like that at first glance, you have to search for further information. Poor web design I think.

I'm very polite Willie

I'm very polite Willie

I,m not anymore, fed up being polite on this site

And what is this average rating thing about? If you have four reviews that are positive you will be rated five star. This isn't Trustpilot. Think about how well percentages work in real life. They don't.
