With the new version of the site comes new from the ground up development starting with the most popular section, the forums.

We increased compatibility between different browsers and included many features found on other forums, such as board stats, who's online, expanded amount of smilies. We also try to expand where other forums stop.

Private Messaging has also gained new features like the same rich text editor found in the forums, no mail box size limit and easy to use search options to look through your past messages.

We started off the simple use of ratings to moderate posts to ease the stress of moderators. The rating system allows unwanted posts to be hidden and now the rating system will have bearings on peoples' reputation which is present on peoples' profiles as well on the forums.

By dropping BBL code for the forums we can move on to the next step in forums by using new rich text editors allows for more options and function almost as if you had MS Word and forums options in one.

New Poll options not found on other forums. Aside from new poll styles like horizontal bar, vertical bar and pie graph we have added an unique option that allows voter to add the options creating an open voting system with the "fill in the blank" option.

Not a large improvement, but something our users will appreciate. With lager avatars people have more freedom in what they want to display. Users will also be able to have a mini avatar for use on the google maps.
