My Candy Love Beta Forum
This petition has been created for those who wish to express their immense dislike towards the new Beta Forum, which has been moved over to the American site of Amour Sucré, My Candy Love. We as individuals believe that the new Beta Forum lacks the simplicity and the convenience the old Forum held, and we have ultimately decided to send forward our views to the Beemoov team. We have a couple of issues with additional changes but our main concern is directed towards the Beta Forum. We know that the Beemoov team have spent many months to create the new website, and we understand that, but we also know the Beemoov team appreciate the thoughts of their users and buyers. The several reasons why many individuals dislike the new Beta Forum will be listed below, and we hope Beemoov will consider these factors and restore the old Forum which we all have enjoyed using for the past five years.
FONT
Our first issue is the new writing font. The difference between the old font and the new font is easily detected and has indeed sparked dislike from many individuals. It is an unappealing style and is hard to read, and the reason it is difficult to read is because the spacing between lines is too close together. We have also received complaints from those who suffer from dyslexia, telling us that the font makes it hard to differentiate the letters, so we urge you to restore the old font. The new font has also made it troublesome to read the titles of topics as letters are too condensed. In very simple words, the previous font was easier to read and more appealing to the eye. Lines were not too close together, and words and letters were spaced out evenly.
POSTING
When it comes to posting on the Beta Forum, the sizing of the page itself is considerably large. When using pictures on the Forum, they also are too close together, ruining the artistic imagery. My Candy Love players enjoy expressing their creative side and the new Beta Forum diminishes that. Tying the factors about the writing font, the large page and the closeness of the pictures, it all looks aesthetically unpleasing. Undeniably, the former Forum was a lot easier to operate and all was in proportion; posts looked fitting and images were spaced evenly and the font was easy to read.
COLOURS
Everything on the Beta Forum looks blown out with the bright colours of green and blue; the colour scheme looks very sickly and has left many players dissatisfied and bitter towards the new Forum. The colours are far too ostentatious, overbearingly child-like and overall, highly unappealing. The old Forum had a simplicity to it that all users appreciated; it wasn't at all overbearing to look at. Not to mention, the new heart-shaped loading icon — very childish and has disagreed with many players.
CODING
Yes, we are aware that the coding needs to be fixed but it is an extreme mess and, once again, looks unpleasing on forum posts. The new colour of the spoilers and quotes are abominable and aesthetically unattractive. We can confidently assure Beemoov that most players prefer the old BBCode and spoilers, quotes et cetera. Please do reconsider changing the coding (and everything else we have stated).
EMAIL ICON AND PROFILE SITES
The messages icon is merely useless, it would have been better if it stayed the same (the Forum included). It was confusing at first and just looks very odd. Another concern is profiles — it looks extremely unpleasant, especially with the added touches.
Ultimately, we all believe that the former Forum is simply the best out of the two in terms of how easy it is to operate, the mellow colour scheme, the simplicity of the Forum and the ease of posting — aesthetically pleasing, excellent coding and easy-to-read font. We urge the Beemoov team to reconsider their choices of the new Beta Forum and provide My Candy Love with its former Forum, which we have all learned to loved. Please give us back the Forum we deserve. We hope you consider our points, Beemoov.
Thank you for your co-operation,
The MCL Community.

Seeing this much energy behind our cause is honestly overwhelming. It proves that the community is truly struggling with these changes and feels the same frustration I do about our forum.

I don't have an MCL account, but I was planning on creating one at the beginning of March, which I'm now thinking of postponing since I tried previewing my profile layout in the forum and it's really messed up. Hopefully this all gets fixed soon, because I'm not looking forward to making an account on a site that barely runs (I'm on Sweet Crush).
MCL username: LynnScythe My biggest issue with the beta site is that the beta testers were only given approx. 2/3 weeks to give feedback, meaning many of these issues could've been ironed out but weren't. Beta testing is test/retest. Not test/submit.
Consider your population of interest, which should correlate with the majority of your clients, Beemoov. If those teams planned to repulse people from the forums, they've done a dandy job. Some parts of the updates I don't mind, and I’ll even find some nifty, but the sad reality—that ease and functionality have been replaced with faulty new sparkle pants for an audience stuck in Third Grade—is aggravating my alienation. While I understand it’s new and needs work, the fact that it's released with this many bugs is mind-boggling. Besides loading at the speed of molasses, they released a mobile app, have a button for going to the forums, but the site is not mobile-friendly. I cannot fanthom where logical thinking has gone to, and can only hope it’ll come running back some day soon.
The new site makes me continuously sign in everytime I visit it, not keeping me logged in on mobile or computer. The color scheme is unpleasant to the eye, and paired with the new font, it is more difficult to read posts. As for the size of the forum posts, they are unnecessarily large. Us MCL members are used to posts at approximately 500 width, and the new, wider width throws me off. Not to mention that, again, it makes the posts less aesthetically pleasing.
The whole layout lags my devices. It is rather annoying when it takes a few seconds to receive an individual letter's input onto the computer screen. Ultimately causing the input to blend together and forgo a letter or two in the process.
I really dislike the new forum. I had an old account, which I deleted due date to how busy I am in real life. But now that I got a new account, I can't even post on the forum! The only thing I could only do is to subscribe to topics, which is a shame because I wanted to start role playing again. But putting personal problems aside, I agree that the coding and color scheme is horrendous. Back when I had my old account, I was able to put pictures on the spoilers, and now the code keeps getting messed up when I try to do that. I can see that there are posts made from the old forum with the code screwed up. The new forum's color scheme also hurts my eyes. And I mean literally. I have sensitive eyes and the new forum makes my vision even more straining. The only thing I have to disagree on is the heart loading icon because I thought it's pretty cute. But other than that, I'm signing!
Gotta show love, yo.

I don't use the forum much but I have to say the new style is very confusing and unappealing. The font is large the coding is completely different which has ruined my profile page amongst many other things, and I find it difficult to want to join the forums more. I really loved the old coding and forum style. :(
