If you haven’t been to the discussion boards in the last day or so, we have some new goodies you should check out. While we haven’t gotten it all yet, we do have a few new features and more that we can now add later on. This was enabled when we updated our discussion board software to a newer version. 

 

One of the new features I like is having a new post list only have the final forum name rather than a long list which made scrolling the list a long chore. This however has raised a few hairs with some of our members so later this week, any duplicate or confusing names such as General (Java, and Web Technologies) will be renamed. If you find some things you see need tweaking let us know so we can fix them. 

 

Another thing we now have is and icon for multiple quotes where you can quote from more than one message in a reply. We can also, play a little football and give out yellow or red cards to people that are pushing the terms of service. Before we had this feature we would have to either ban a user or edit his message, which I’m very hesitant to do. So now we can give them a warning to clean it up before outright banning a person. We’ll try to bring more new features online later this year.
