User blog:Blubabluba9990/My Pros and Cons About UCP

I have noticed a lot of users complaining about the new UCP updates, so I am going to list my personal pros and cons for UCP

Avatars
The new avatars look pretty cool. There are now 24 options with actual human faces, which gives a bit more selection for users on mobile who are unable to upload custom Avatars.

User Rights Expiry Times
I have noticed that there is now a feature that enables users to have user rights, and the amount of time can be toggled when first promoting them.

Editing
Editing is very hard on UCP wikis. When I try to type, the screen shakes up and down. This happens in both the Visual editor and the source editor. The text is also very scrunched. It is very annoying for users who use mobile.

Navigation
The new wikis are quite difficult to navigate. The pages take forever to load and respond. There is also no Message Wall button which can be very annoying.

Appearance
The appearance of new UCP styled wikis isn't very visually appealing. The redlinks are a very odd shade of red. The text is huge and the font is very weird. Also, for some reason, the Global Block message does not appear (not the one where an account is disabled, just globally blocked, idk about the account disabled message).

New Names
I am somewhat mixed about the decision to rename VSTF to SOAP. It does make for some good one-liners, but it also can create a lot of sarcastic remarks. When I told one user I was contacting SOAP when they vandalized my old wiki, they linked me to a google page to buy literal soap.

All in all, there are some pros, but it is quite difficult to use and it will take a lot of getting used to, especially since it is unlikely that TheScumHouse Wiki will ever be re opened. It seems like it is very hard for users to edit on mobile and that the update is more meant for desktop.
