Wow it is different
most notably: it's much faster. most notably: more secure imo is your opinion based on hearsay or some facts? How is it more secure? from the OP "We have been working tirelessly to deploy many "behind the scenes" upgrades over the past few months that have vastly improved our security, flexibility and availability." So hearsay it is ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) . i guess, those words are straight from DPR himself though. He constantly has people doing pentests and security isn't something that you can't upgrade. You have to be constantly looking for vulnerabilities and fix them. what i gathered from the forums from trusted members is that his pentesters found a lot of vulnerabilities that were fixed in this upgrade. That is why they couldn't say anything about when it was going to go down and couldn't post why SR went down for 10 hours. After they fixed the vulnerabilities then they announced the remake. This all seems pretty plausible to me. I can't see why anyone would think they would lie about upgrading security, because upgrading security is a standard thing that websites must do regularly (even .onion sites). I guess its fair to call it hearsay, because they aren't going to release any proof of what was fixed for security reasons obviously.

I don't think a redesign of the site will mean increased influx of new users.
I'm all for improvement, but this won't tap any new userbase. It's not like you happen to see this awesomely designed silkroad page by some accident and then do business on it because it's so pretty. It's also not like you want to order some drugs and are then driven off by a crappy design.
this is true. i was hoping it would draw some media attention. usually gawker does an anti-SR article about anything that goes on on SR. i guess they couldn't find a way to put a negative spin on this. Anyways, the fact that SR upped their security and did this remake because of the influx of new users tells you that SR is growing stronger and more secure.

Translation: "I believe that bitcoin needs more drug users to buy into bitcoin in order for the market price to go up. Let's promote illegal activity in bitcoin guys!"
I stand by my tripod statement. Bitcoin needs 3 legs to stand on, Drugs, Sex and Gambling. SR covers the 1st nicely but I wish it was not the only one that did so (all your eggs in one basket etc). Sex is getting there, seeing more and more cam girls etc. I really hope this takes off - my current speel: Tired of your partner seeing (foot/gay/bi/ladyboy/scat)-fetish on your CC bill - USE BITCOINS !!!. Gambling - while still small Id call what we currently have a success for the community size we have. VHS won over BETA mainly because of porn, bitcoin will win its place as a currency because of Drugs, Sex and Gambling. this the pay 4 porn industry is being killed now because there is so much free porn ,i wouldnt rely on people paying for porn to sustain ANY business or currency as long as google and bittorrent can find you all the porn in the world ....... true, but you would be surprised at how many people still do it. Granted that most people that use bitcoin are savvy enough to not pay for porn. Still, Gambling with bitcoins has a lot of room to grow.

classic.mtgox.com always seems to work better for me when the main site starts to lag. Also the android app as a last resort.
Thanks for the tip! After two 1000+ BTC mis-orders on the new site, I only use the classic site, which has better UI separation between the buy and sell sections.
Thanks for the tip! The new site is just terrible UI design for volatility traders like me, where one often enters multiple buy & sell orders one after another.
omg this. this has happened to me soooooo many times. accidentally buying while trying to sell. also, sometimes it switches your bid/ask price to market value randomly, and sometimes that happens right before you place an order. sooo frusterating. I have lost hundreds of dollars because of this. TY SO MUCH FOR SHOWING ME CLASSIC MTGOX. The new mtgox UI is TERRIBLE for day trading, or even trading in general Yeah. Had a couple of mishaps like that. Simultaneously buying and selling to myself. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Or accidentally selling instead of buying, as sometimes the Sell Bitcoins tab switches to the Buy Bitcoins tab after placing a sell order. (Upon reloading the page most likely?) "Well, there goes my earnings for the day." Not fun. Shame on me for being sloppy, shame on Mt.Gox for bad UI design. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)
Obviously, they gain earn fees from these bad trades. Still, any business that hurts their customers is not good business for any service. The Order type: SELLING/BUYING column of the Your Open Orders tab could use solid color RED and GREEN backgrounds, in place of the indistinguishable alternating blue/white of today. How can I best forward this suggestion to Mt.Gox? PM tux?

1) It would be nice to be able see if a trade was a buy or a sell. and you could have an option to play sounds according to if it was a buy/sell or if it was an up/down tick.
The problem you are getting into there, from a developer/operator POV, is that it gets really complicated in a hurry with settings to please everyone (buy/sell or up/down are mutually exclusive so you need options for one or the other). 2) Add a fullscreen mode option. I know f11 does the same thing, but in F11 mode you still have the scroll bars on the side and bottom if you're zoomed in.
I would also like this, or more accurately: scaling of the chart to the viewport size. Having this on my 51" TV would be, wait for it: AWESOME! hmm, the whole buy/sell vs uptick/downtick is the only problem that I have with clark moody. I would (and i'm assuming most other people would also) MUCH rather have the green/red trades based off of buys/sells rather than upticks/downticks. Also u could get rid of the "white trades." The whole uptick/downtick format can be really misleading because you could have a big buy that shows up red and implies that a bear move just happened and vice versa. Same thing goes for "white" trades. White trades imply neutral trades, when in reality they could be a huge buy/sell. I don't know the technical details about how hard it would be to make this change. But, my 10btc offer is still on the table. EDIT: Please fix the depth chart bug

yea, i just thought i would use the google link so people can't claim that I looked for a definition that fit my argument.

FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYc05gZFly0&feature=relatedplz also, volume (of the audio) control would be nice. EDIT: two more suggestions lol. 1) It would be nice to be able see if a trade was a buy or a sell. and you could have an option to play sounds according to if it was a buy/sell or if it was an up/down tick. 2) Add a fullscreen mode option.

cool. im using ErebusBat's script right now and its working beautifully. I still want to donate to your site because I think it is hands-down the best site to use because it shows the order book. Unfortunately, the order book is kinda bugged right now and the red/blue/green orders won't disappear. Anyways, I love your site.

as for the sounds. its best if they are inconsistent so you can hear every time the sound restarts. like if you have 10 trades in 1 second and the sound is 1 second long then you want it to play 10 times in a second and know when its resetting from the beginning.
Technically it should be possible to detect this and even play another sound (high volume trade?). The problem is you would need a trigger, and the first trades before the trigger would still play the other sound. Then some decay period. i like the idea of being able to play a different sound for high volume trades. it would be even better if you gave the option for us to define what a "high volume trade" is.

Is there any way that you could add an option to add audio for trades? I would really love to be able to hear a noise for every uptick and a different noise for every downtick and something else for just white trades. This way I don't have to be watching the chart 24/7 to look for a rally/crash. I can be browsing a different website and still hear it, so i don't have to check in on it all the time, I can also just hear it happen across the room and get to my computer to trade. I could also just listen to the trades when i go to sleep. There are so many other benefits to adding audio. This would help my day trading A LOT. also, it would be nice to be able to ignore low volume trades under a certain threshold. those .01btc bots would get annoying as far as the audio goes. I would set mine to .1btc. I suggest making different options for the threshold. Anyways, IF you implement these changes, I'll pay you 10btc.
EDIT: also it would be nice if there was a sound for when u get disconnected and reconnected. that way if there hasn't been a trade for a while then you don't have to check to see if you were disconnected or not.
