If you haven't noticed, the forums have been completely restructured. The purpose behind this was to make the forums far less complicated to navigate and also to stage the first steps of our upgrades, changes and additions over the next few months to this community.

These changes, additions and upgrades will include the following MAJOR changes:
- New Forum Structure... done
- "Verified Store Owner" area
- Upgrade to new version of forum software when released
--- Current skins will be converted
--- New skin will be created

Many minor changes will occur as well and I'll try and keep you posted as to what these changes are as they are presented.

The purpose of this overhaul is to create a better, stronger overall community.

To answer some questions I know I'm bound to get:
Will my previous forum suggestion be included?
Every suggestion was considered, but I can't promise they all will make it to the end. However, most will be implemented.

How do I become a "Verified Store Owner"?
Captain will be addressing this in the next few weeks. Stay tuned.

When is all this going to happen?
The new version of the forum software just went into beta and won't be available for a few months. This is why we're beginning preparations now so it isn't one sudden impact that forces you to relearn the entire forum experience at once. The changes will be gradual and you should only notice the major changes listed above, although we'll be adding and changing more throughout the process. I suspect the entire process will last into June and/or July; again, depending on the status of the new forum software release.

When would be a good time to make a suggestion?
Anytime would be a good time. Just PM myself or Captain. However, unless you somehow know your feature will not be implemented, I would recommend keeping a memo of your suggestion as it may be covered eventually during this entire process.

Sounds great Ultra......... keep up the good work!

Looking forward to the new changes...

Im excited for us and for . It will be great!

The benifits of the store owner section are just to many to mention for all of us.

Sometimes theres things you want to say, but you dont want outsiders to get the wrong idea, that your not completely confident in .


Hope you all had a great holiday!

Thanks Ultra... great work!

I love the forums, you guys doing a great job!
