I think the change has some positives, but also substantial negatives.
On the good: I suppose this method gives you waaaaaaaaay less work (?), which is very nice. Furthermore, having a close to up-to-date drop chart thanks to the manual input is very nice.
On the bad: Manually inputing is terribly tedious. The more items you want to input, the worse it gets (e.g., I would never take the ordeal of inputing every non-event). The system is poorly done. U don't use any kind of criteria to order monsters, for instance (like A,B,C,D...), so finding some things can take some time. Meanwhile, making a post is super easy/takes a few seconds.
Overall, I prefer the old ways. However, I have no complaints since u are giving easy access to the info anyway.
Appreciate the effort sheiky.
