augolf1716 21,103 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Kinda sounds like AuburnEagle just sold all their users to AUFamily. Pretty much forcing us to a new site and trying to get us to like it. Well, it was a good ride guys. Could not be further from the truth. ST and everyone else aren't going any where. This whole merger is truly about us being better and stronger together. I hope you choose to stick around and atleast give it a chance... The more I go to AUFamily, the more comfortable I get with it. Not too shabby of a site. You found another Manilow fan over there didn't you weeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tray Matthews thread is 2 pages and Carl Lawson's is 4 pages. I have a feeling that is fixing to change drastically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChattAU 0 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I think right now my biggest hurdle is the white background. I may be young, but I have old eyes. I can't read pages of speculation for hours at a time if it will be that bright. I'd love to see the white text/dark background be an AE contribution to our new home.

I think the skin used on their forum is nice and professional. I don't think they should change anything.. I could see them having a dark blue theme though as an option.

InfernoOrangeSS 321 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I much prefer the light background and dark text of AU family. It helps with my created smilies. I believe this is going to be an exciting transition and after one or two weeks, everyone will be used to the new look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripe 5 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 OK, I'm over my frustrations of the merger...for now. I'm ready for this to all be over with. I do have a question though. Since I can't keep my username due to someone already having it. Plus I have an account there already that this one will be merged with, once the merger is done Is it possible for me to change my username?

Let me repost this so I can get a response from you. « Reply #175: August 08, 2012, 10:41:20 PM » " The blue and gray backgrounds on the pages here are unique and just one of the many things I like about this site over any site I have been to. Very easy on the eyes. I sure hope we keep that when the sites are combined. Other things I like here are the crazy emitcons and of course the great people here. I also like the way you weed out the Updykes. Do they do that there too ? " I am 64 and I REALLY like the blue and gray backgrounds. I hope you keep that, at least as an option, or you will have some problems from us older folk. We have been known to band together and plot revenge during our meetings at the "early bird specials". Seriously though, I hope you have made provisions. We want dark backgrounds ! We want dark backgrounds ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDADX3 0 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 WOW...Just checked back in on this and found the announcement. I've been so wrapped up in football news that I lost track of this. Feeling a little lost. I never have done change well and the older I get the harder it is. But, I'll try to keep an open mind and give it a try. ST and all the Admin and Mods, THANKS!!! This site has been a big part of my life since I joined and although I don't post often, I read it several times daily. When I've had a question or when my daughter's car broke down in Auburn, you guys were always there to help. I just want to say THANK YOU for all you have done. It has been a fun ride for sure. Well, while I'm typing this I just happened to look down and notice I'm wearing my Auburn Eagle t-shirt. I guess it's a CLASSIC now. LOL WDE and see you on the other side.
