Whats new?
Well you guys are probally wondering whats new, so I thought I would point out a few things to everyone:
First the site speed is much faster. Hopefully you noticed this.
Next we have a new function called "Similar threads". Anytime a message is posted, the forum gathers relevant data about that post and finds other posts that have similar data. When viewing a thread scroll to the very bottom and you will see the option. This should help out newbies when trying to find information.
We now have a reputation system. When viewing a thread your will see all these little icons next to a user. One of them is Reputation Power. Click that and you can comment on the users post. If he is way off topic you can nail him for that, or if the reply was good give him a positive rating.
We also have a thread rating system. This lets you rate a thread from 1-5 stars. If you really like a thread and where its going give it 5 stars. This way people can see the rating at the top and see that its a very important thread.
Our Review sections is much better now. This should allow you guys to find and post reviews with ease.
Classifieds got a face lift. Some features are actually missing, while new features being enabled. We will keep enhancing the classifieds when time comes. Until then please take advantage of our free classifieds.
One major change that I am sure alot of you will enjoy is the "Subscriptions". We now can subscribe to a single thread or a whole forum! With this option comes the ability to have the system email you right away when a reply is made or send out a daily email about it. All of this can be controlled in the "User CP".
A added bonus to the site is the "New Post" section. This section will show you the "New Post" since you last logged in.
And last but not least we finally have a Calendar thats intergrated perfectly into the website. Just click the Calendar link above to post a event. Events can be herp shows, or anything reptile related you want others to know about.
Todays Birthdays is a neat new little feature. Go to your User CP at the top and check out all the options in there. You now have a section to put in your birthday and the system will let everyone know if your birthday is that day.
There are also a ton of other features that I could mention here. If I think of any more that are really important I will let you know.
