I've already posted several times today about the changes that happened to our community overnight. This new forum style is a little different from what we're all used to seeing, but I think we will be able to adjust to it pretty well in due time. We've got a LOT of features here that we didn't have before (like the ability for our users to report offensive posts to us with the click of a button, a revised member profile area with a "blog" space, better polling options, a MARVELOUS administration panel, and customizations that boggle the mind).

There are a few things you should know (if you didn't already). 1. There are no current tutorials for this new forum style. We will eventually introduce some, but we'll have to work without the screenshots while we work on fixing things in the background. 2. HTML does not work here, so any tricks you know that involve these things: < > no longer work. We can ONLY use BBCode here like this code to embed a picture:

Code: Select all

3. Information in your profile may have changed. Make sure you take some time to update your profile to reflect current information including e-mail addresses.

We're working on slowly creating an entire thread in Forum Support full of information about this new forum. There's a lot of information in there and we're going to update it frequently. Make sure you check back regularly, especially for topics on which we're still working. You can see that thread HERE.

If you've got questions about ANYTHING regarding these new forums, PLEASE PM me so I can add that information to the New Forum Layout thread. (NOTE: This thread is LOCKED so no one can post in it. This is to ensure that ALL posts in the thread are directly related to the list of features and how to use them. If you need to make a comment, please PM me or open a new thread in Forum Support).

Just a small note, we've got a pretty good knowledge base started of how to use some of the features of the forum. I would encourage everyone to take some time to look over these, especially given that they have changed so much in the past twenty four hours. I'll provide that link in a minute. On this thread, remember that it has been locked, so no new posts are allowed. This is to prevent confusion and clutter. If you've got questions about any of the stuff int he "New Forum Layout" thread, PM me or start a new thread in Forum Support.
