This is a new Forum software by Simple Machines. You will see much more information about your account here. Your posts and other things like avatars and signatures have been brought over from the old forums(which still exist.)

The recent requests for simple things like a "LIKE" button started our exploration and brought us to convert our forums to this software.

New Help Desk
We now have a HelpDesk. You can see the link at the top of the page and it will take you to a page on this site that will allow you to submit a ticket for a change either on the Website or to the Forums. Additionally, it will let you tell us about any errors and ask for corrections to posts or other site information.

Is Your Siggy not showing Up?
No Worries, Just click on your profile. Touch each of the boxes and then save. You should then see the items show up.

Collapsable Boards?
When you click on the forum button you will see the Forums and the categories will have a minus (-) sign on the right side. If you click it it will turn into a plus (+) sign and all the boards in the category will disappear. Not only that but you will also see text "Unread Posts" clicking this will let you see everything you haven't yet read.

Like System
Not only is there a like button on each post, but you can also change your mind and unlike it. There is also a link at the top of the boards to view the like statistics of the boards at any point it time. There is also a "Karma" system that could be activated if there is a demand and we might put up a poll about that later. Basically it just allows you to like the Member directly rather than any individual post.

CBox Integration
There is a mod to integrate the CBox login with your forum login. Unfortunately right now it is out of date and we've asked CBox for an updated mod. When that is provided you'll be able to use a single login.

In this forum, most of the posts I've read (except for this one and...well, now I've read it), but several topics were marked as unread.  I chose the 'mark read' up at top, but they're al still marked as unread.  So what am I doing wrong? :-D  I can report it but thought maybe I am doing something wrong. ^_^

No you're not doing anything wrong, but since there are more than 40k posts it takes the system a bit of time to accomplish the task. Come back in a few hours and you'll find they're marked correctly.  :)
