      @betterlate1-0 this is a little down-in-the-weeds, but I assume you object to the word "cross" in this case because the two crossed lines are equal in length, as they are in a plus sign. Not that it matters, but as far as I'm concerned the word "cross" applies just as well in this case as it would to a tall or "Latin" cross of the type we are used to seeing in Christian religious imagery. A little research reveals that the equal-length version is called a "Greek" cross. Then again, among the countries that use a cross on their national flag, there are those (including Switzerland) that use the style with equal-length arms. So it seems to me the OP was correct in calling it a cross... or at least, not incorrect 🙂

        I don't care what it's called, it's crude and ugly when compared to the previous gold star. The most significant thing about this in my book is that the developers either aren't in this forum at all, or they're too lazy or don't have the guts to deal directly with the players and their desires and problems. Or the developers are just not interested, or they expect to be paid for every moment of their engagement and that's not in their contract. The annoyingly boilerplate non-responses of sakamvari are not adequate or satisfying. WHO PUT THE UGLY CROSS OR PLUS SIGN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BOARD, AND WHY? Let's hear from this person, why don't we.

            @thatguythere202 If a cross is a cross I have no problem with that. There is a car ad now that I cant recall but it tells all about the new features and shows a plus sign every time it tells the newest feature. example: plus a new engine, plus new directionals (kidding about the new features but not the plus. ) The same plus sign some call a cross.

              @roymccoy maybe it has something to do with people that work there are disgusted by what they see and read and figure the work is useless

                  @roymccoy do you pay membership. you are demanding even if you do. Yes it is ugly, but so what? The esthetics displease you? Does it hurt your game? I am not fond of it either but in less than a minute it is gone. Who made your mouth so ugly and did you buy the site? That is the only way I could understand your attitude You said the plus sign is crude. You are more crude. Deal with it

                      @betterlate1-0 gee @roymccoy it is probable you muted me because I speak truth and you and your friends think bullying is a good thing. I have a problem with bullying so think you are still muted in the lobby I don't see you, which means you do not need to worry about it. I still cover the plus sign so do not see it after a few sec. I dislike it too

                        It is more probable I muted you because you're annoying, and that is definitely the reason I am doing so now. You can speak all the truth you want – go right ahead. Bye.

                          @roymccoy I am annoying and you just proved why. You do not like the truth or facts. You find it fine that you are rude and crude and apparently bully others to get your way. I point it out you censor me. Have a good day.

                            Better, I don't really know Roy, but he doesn't seem like a bully to me.

                            And you'll probably take this the wrong way, but you would be doing yourself a favor if you thought about and edited your sentences before posting. Like "You find it fine that are rude and crude" -- what was that supposed to mean?

                            As for the plus sign in the middle of the board, do you people sit and stare at it? Star or plus sign? No big deal to me!

                              @anexparrot He is not directing his bullying at you, however if you do not think what I say is so, look at how he talks to people working for site. To me he thinks they are his slaves and he issues commandments that they should follow. As for the star or plus sign,read postings about what roy says about that. tell me not rude or crude. I do have a problem with computer leaving out words and since I know it, i really should take time to read it. Thanks

                                    @roymccoy You have to remember that developers are paid to do things. They cannot, by definition of their jobs, leave well enough alone. If everything were fine in their view they would go home and they'd be out of a job so they always have to continually tweak and "improve" things. It's frigging annoying sometimes and this is an example of it. In no other industry of which I'm aware, does this happen. The motto, "If it ain't broke don't fix it," is anathema to them.

                                      There's truth in what you say, despite a bit of exaggeration. I'm not sure, however, that the Lexulous developers are doing anything, except a very few rare and nonsensical things such as replacing the star (itself unattractive compared to the earlier one) with a plus sign. The arrows still aren't fixed, etc.
