BIG Forum Changes a'coming . . .

Can't Post |

Hola a todo!<p>After promising a new Forum system for quite a while, the day is finally here.<p>On Monday the 21st, all the Forums will be suspended from approx. Noon PDT for a period of 12 to 24 hours.<p>During this time, we will be importing all the data from the current Forums, and integrating it into the new system - nothing will be lost.<p>The new system is a vast improvement in both functionality and power. You will be able to do many things that you could not do before.<p>When the new system is active, your old bookmarks will still work, but I ask you to update them once you are into the new system.<p>The most significant change is that there will be two ways to look at the forums:<p>1. As a guest - you will be able to read, search and so on, but not post or respond.<p>2. As a logged-in participant - you will have full access to all features and functions.<p>So, to log-in, you will need to create an account, using a valid email address. This sign-up address will not be publically available unless you choose to do so, but will be known to the Administrator (me) and the respective Moderators.<p>You may use this address or an alternative address, or none when posting.<p> I firmly believe that the new system will prove to be a great improvement!<p>There is even a Practice Forum available for you to experiment with and to learn the new system without worrying about making mistakes. You can post to the regular forums at any time.<p>Enjoy, and sorry for the down-time tomorrow. The wait will be worth it! In the meantime, explore the Day of the Dead section in preparation for the end of the month! (Link below)<p>And thanks to those who were the initial guinea pigs who tested the system out.<p>David McL \WebJefe
