We are opening up the new site to all
The frontpage is just a quick mock up and hasn't been completed or finalised. This very unlikely to be the final design of it. Just something for you all to get the idea of the landing page before accessing the forum.
Quite a lot has changed, especially with the editor, you don't need to insert an image or click on more reply options to add attachments. Simply paste the link to an image, press enter and the image will appear, this is the same with soundcloud, youtube etc.
The @ mention function, simply type @ then in lower case type the start of the persons username and a list will appear, you can select from that list. We'll write a more information changelog once we are ready to go but we wanted to give a you a taste of the site.
However.
We have only opened up the frontpage and the forum for the time being, whilst we work on the remaining part of the site and features. You can login with your existing username and password (facebook/twitter/steam login options are not enabled but visible). Any new member that has registered after the 8th February 2015 will need to register on the new site to use it.
Remember, this is still in development, so styling issues and bugs may still be present. So we have a bug tracker you can use to log anything you see, this way we can investigate it and fix. Please give as much information as possible (screenshots, links, steps to reproduce if possible).
So feel free to browse, feel free to make as many posts as you want and don't worry about posting or creating topics in the wrong area (it's a copy of the database).
Any questions, please respond here or in the dedicated forum on the new site.
JUST GIVE ME THE LINK WILL YA
patience, my friends, patience.
If you click here, you will be taken to the new look site (some of it anyway).
