I'll just have to wait then :)

On another aspect I see 3 titles being used:

NEWBEE, COMMITTEE and ADMIN

What does Committee mean with respect to Forum privilges?

I see no mention of Moderators yet - or am I being impatient Again!!

Non-logged in users can browse away on the forum and see most posts.
I'm not sure if this was the case on the old forum as I was pretty much logged in all the time, home , work, phone, tablet...

Guests could view everything that ordinary signed up members could see - they just couldnt post.

Who are the mods at the moment - Ah I'll report this to them and see who answers me about this despicable post I just wrote.

Btw: Next to report is a "Logged" Icon what does this do?

The "logged" thing replaces IP addresses that you are not allowed see. meaning the ipaddress is logged but you cant see it.
Mods will see all ip addresses - non-mods can only see there own. i.e. instead of the "logged" on your own posts you will see the ipaddress you were on when you made that post (or it could be your current one you are logged in with - not sure)

Having problems with my PMs. I can see a new one, but when I click on it nothing happens?

Bubbles

Bravo lads. New forum is smashing.

The "View Unread Posts" feature is the single greatest improvement from the old software. It was far too easy to miss new posts on the old system.

Much better, the background of grain either side was a dead give away when I was dossing in work before...
This works better..

Noticed that once you leave the home page you cannot go back to it. Clicking the logo does not do it either.
