Updated membergroup permissions - I think you should be able to see it now Loren.

Ok guys - some changes have been made to the password / login section. Please give it a shot and provide feedback soon! I want to complete the transition soon!

Can you add a new or recent post link at the top of the page?

hi, just checked out the test version. what exactly will be different on this new format? seems to be the same as what we have here, except for the even more generic look. will there be a new updated/refreshed look? would love to start participating here again, but wont until this malicious site stuff gets resolved. i think it is safe to say it is extemely hindering new member signup also.

also..... as im sure some of you have noticed, the other site has been taken over by admins who have flooded and spammed the entire thing with ad revenue click bait. this isnt in the plans i hope? please advise.

We are moving to a new forum software platform - the content will remain the same. The logos will remain and "themes" may change or be user-set. There is no intent to turn the site into a profit machine - all bills are paid by supporting vendors / sponsors.

I'm logged in to the "new" forum. Can't see the chatbox and I still got the security error using Chrome. Didn't get the security error with Firefox though.

The biggest thing for me is the security error. I'm on a PC all day at work, but even as a network engineer I can't make the changes to permit this site after it violates the security policy. I can remove spam posts and respond to other admin duties in minutes but not with the error

If your computer / anti-virus tagged the site prior, then it will still tag it on the "test" forum since it's only on a subdomain. Once we migrate to the new software, we will submit reviews to all necessary parties.

You should be good to go on the Chat Box now - had to enable Moderator viewing permissions. Sorry [MENTION=483]Tbone07[/MENTION] and [MENTION=9]Pumashine[/MENTION]

Guys - forum platform migration is happening this Sunday late in the evening. Please expect the site to be completely down for a few hours.
