I get no private messages, except a single one somehow managed to get through to me.
Wait, really? I actually got private messages..… more. weird.
I also get no notifications at all, and my feed didn't update either (except for that one message) since this mess began.
I actually get notifications when there's activity in a thread I followed... k den, Telltale.
@Telltale fix ur website and i'll give u a freddo babes thx
spoiler tags don't seem to work for me now either, another bug, just noticed it because I didn't try to make new spoiler posts since the forum changes until today
edit 4: In the past it was possible to have a new setting/theme/scene related title:
In any case, I would prefer the changes to be rolled back, if for nothing else than for the ability to PM properly again and to get our notifications back.
I'm really disappointed. I totally understand if you want to remove the "Games" in the "Telltale Games" brand. After all, The Walking Dead Season One kickstarted a whole different course for you.
The one thing that makes me sad is the way every game before TWD has been wiped out from the site. Strategy is one thing, history is another. If you're worried that your past game design style doesn't represent what you are now, you could just create a separate section with "classic games", clearly stating that you're not producing that kind of games any longer. But you should still acknowledge the existence of the past: Sam & Max, Bone, Tales of Monkey Island, Strong Bad are all the foundation of what you have become.
WE, the gamers who've been sticking with you since 2005, are part of that foundation. I accept the design change: I loved classic point & click games but I also love your new "story games". You chose to evolve, I get that. Unfortunately, I really cannot accept that those experiences we've been sharing together for a decade are now simply gone from your timeline.
Please reconsider.
Old game pages are eventually coming back, as Telltale Staff members have confirmed in this thread (their comments are quoted at the top of this thread);
Old games will also be added back soon; making sure we have all the content for each of these titles is in progress.

Any time I want to put down an actual date or timeframe, I know I'm tempting the Murphy's Law gods to make that not happen, so I can't give a date here. What I will say however is that it's actively in progress (I actually, literally see it on people's monitors, that's not just a meaningless statement).
Our older titles will live on. If I said 'very soon,' would that help?
You wound me.

I have noticed from other user's posts that you can embed Tweets now, just like YouTube videos.
Just type the Tweet URL directly without using the Link tool, and the tweet will appear.

So, I was just able to reply to a private message, though I can't yet confirm if the person I replied to actually received my answer. It is a step forward from the last days though, where it was impossible to even send replies to existing private messages.
Edit: Nope, they still do not work correctly. I'm able to send messages again, but the person I send them to does not receive them.
Edit 2: And I have just received another private message. I guess this means PM's apparently either work again, or are about to work again very soon

PMs still not fixed, you can't reply to them, although you may be able to send a new one, but that means every single time you need to start a new conversation to just send one message.

I know about that. However, around the same time reply notifications worked again a few hours ago, I was able to answer to an already existing PM and the person in question received it. I also received an answer to another already existing message, meaning for a very short time, PM's were apparently fixed. It stopped working around the same time as reply notifications stopped working again.
The new format requires art assets to be modified to fit, as well as additional content changes. It just takes some time, and the older we go the harder it is. But older titles will continue to populate the pages. We are not forgetting where we came from.
InGen did you think of this when you wrote "Welcome to the New Age"'?
edit: whomever unstickied this was too hasty with that, many things aren't fixed yet, so-called new features aren't known or implemented either I assume
The thread is still stickied; you must have "unsticked" the thread on your personal account by clicking on the "announcement" icon but others can see it as a sticky still. Also, as I have said, other mods and I are compiling bugs/feedback for the web team outside of this thread, so banking everything in on staff reading this thread is not really a concern. We're still checking this thread, and still messing around with things on our own end.
Also, I have already tried testing user notifications from tagging, and all that works.

Usernames with spaces and other particular characters do not work with the mention feature.
I didn't know we can 'unsticky', if I did that it must had been accidental, how to undo that?
EDIT: also, I tend to have typos, and edit to fix it, IMO not a good idea to spam people with notifications on the edits, Imagine how many times someone could edit a comment in a game thread, multiply with the amount of readers/players and you should notice this could get crazy for the GM/author of the tread

The edit thing is probably not intentional. I noticed that too, and let the web team know.
As for the unsticky thing, I don't think that can be undone. For now, the best alternative is to just bookmark a thread.
My only suggestion would be to modify the location of the notification bell sign, as it only shows if you hold the device horizontally, and I almost always hold it vertically and ended up missing my notifications in the last couple of days.
Jurassic Park is now live! How's THAT for soon?

I had no idea that there's the notification bell on the phone before you said it, because I always hold it vertically. I just assumed it's gone forever. It's not nit-picky at all, I would appreciate a little edit of that as well.
Edit: now that I actually checked it, it's not appearing for me even in a horizontal mode, which is a shame.
The update is looking amazing in iOS now!

Today, I can't seem to log in when I click on my profile, because the login window can't show up. The only way I have to log in is to click on "Start New Discussion" so that the login window would then appear. It stinks that there is no "Login" button next to the "My Account" button.
Spoilers tags. As of now there is no way to identify and deter apart of what exactly the topic in the tag is about. If we could have it work like before where we properly identify them that'd be great.
The new edit feature where you get a new notification with each edit can lead to spam. It can be easily abused intently. Or when a person can make many typos, unintentionally spamming another's feed. If we can have it one notification like originally that kind of issue can be adverted.
Editing threads. People are unable to edit threads in the normal way anymore, which can be quite a pain.
In the feed, there's no details on the number of comments/likes and no profiles showing.
I'd like to see a colour difference between private and normal messages. Originally it was much simpler to differ from another, so if our messages were to look a little different colour wise it'd be easier to tell.
Also make emoji images optional. The faces I try to make don't always look the way I want them now that they're replaced by yellow faces.

New design is awful
Embedding youtube videos is now fixed

edit: no it isn't
edit 2: oh, NOW it is
edit 3: but you can't give it a name as before, because then it becomes just words
Background Music example - it is a link instead a new title for the video/music

big question is what 'soon' means
Ya got me, but I can't imagine it's Telltale's typical "soon" as updating a website is not the same as developing and releasing a Telltale episode.
You wound me.

Well, for starters it helps that you posted here again. I assume no one would be angry if you do post a 'circa when' date.
It would also greatly help if PMs worked again correctly, with ability to reply to them, and getting notifications for everything

That will be soooo handy, no more needing to take screenshots and uploading them to imgur

ok, now this is cool, I give my endorsement
Doh! I'm such a moron! :-D
I totally missed that line! :-(
I'm sorry, I'll be waiting for the old games to come back!
Thanks.

Mods have received word that reply notifications should be back if all is working correctly.
So, I was just able to reply to a private message, though I can't yet confirm if the person I replied to actually received my answer. It is a step forward from the last days though, where it was impossible to even send replies to existing private messages.

Edit 2: And I have just received another private message. I guess this means PM's apparently either work again, or are about to work again very soon
Initiating a new PM conversation works, but that is it. For now, the best solution is to have each person respond by sending a new PM.
Testing! @NotSoBlindGuy, do you copy? Come in @NotSoBlindGuy

Was there a problem with notifications? I didn't read anything about it.
