Gentlemen, mind your manners please.

I'm sorry for asking this but I scanned through this entire topic and could not find any link to this new forum, would you happen to have the link to it??

Thank you

You can find it in the upper part, right side of the menue "(old) forums...

Thank you!

Hi Robin,

I'm excited about the transition. But.... I just tried to post pictures in the new forum, snow white build, and found I couldn't even though I was logged in (to the old site?). Do I need to setup a new account for the new site? Or am I missing something?

Cheers

Matthew

The old and the new forums are separate when it comes to user-id and log-ins so you will need to create a new account.
The account creation process includes activation e-mails sent to the e-mail address you enter. Sometimes these e-mails go missing. I monitor new accounts and do a "management" activation if it seems that the process has gotten stuck

Thanks Robin. Will set up a new account now. Cheers!

Must say, the new site is easy to set up an account for, and looks so much better on a smart phone. The ease of uploading photos is a real bonus. Saves loads of time and faff. Well done Armorama!

Thank You
Thank You
Thank You

~`~ 'Grace' under-fire...,,, I remember when....

Thanks......

do I have to register again?

Yes. You could also use facebook or Google to login I think ...

When will the new Armorana Site with news and reviews go online?

Does the new forum now somehow allow us to re-edit our own thread titles or do we still have to go to an Admin to get that done?

Users at trust level 3 can…

Recategorize and rename topics
Access a secure category only visible to users at trust level 3 and higher
Have all their links followed (we remove automatic nofollow)
TL3 spam flags cast on TL0 user posts immediately hide the post
TL3 flags cast on TL0 user posts in sufficient diversity will auto-silence the user and hide all their posts

Trust level 3 has the name 'Regular'
and you would reach that level quickly.
Regulars are those who visit regularly, read posts by others regularly, does everything regularly and are thus entrusted with house keeping and cleaning chores.
Before trust level 3 just give an admin a mention by using @ + call sign or send a message.

Boy that all sounds like just so much fun! Trust levels????

But thank you Robin for taking the time to write all that out. (Seriously!)

Should I mention that some people should perhaps be given automatic advanced "trust levels" but that would take a lot of manual work and assessment.
