Ross and I were talking last night and decided that a version 2 should be produced.

He is working on the coding of it as we speak, I am also now appointed one of the heads of the forum along with Graham.

I thought it was worth just announcing some of the features that we're going to be including for you.

PM System Rewrite - This is going to be released, it will include the threaded conversations, as well as adding & removing participants. Some other sexy features too.

Sub-Categories - I know that some of you wanted it. I guess you could say it's like sub-boards, but now you can 'organise' the sub-boards. Ross has said that this is a feature he didn't want to add, but I told him to!

Statistics - Because I'm a [mildly] kind person, Ross and I reached an agreement. This will be released as a paid feature. However, all forums already created will receive 3 ad-free credits, which will incidentally give you the statistics for a month. Go to to pick up these credits.

New Staff - As we continue to get bigger, we feel that we will be requiring more staff soon to join the Support Team. Therefore we will be looking out for new people.

Integrated Chat Room - We have teamed up with Para Chat to bring to you, what knifes brought to bread. [Sliced... Oh never mind! >.<] This will be a free chat room. With full user integration, and the ability to kick, ban or spank [*cough*] the people in the Room. Problem with this is that we are still discussing some merging ideas. It's coming!

IP Based Ad-free - I love this idea. However, not IP based. Therefore we have made it 'code' based. To add a code:
Go to your profile => Below "Email Address". Also, note, we have been kind again and given you this code. 4PR11-F00L5.

Coffee Machine - Wait, this is only what Ross promised me at my house. Ignore this one... But it sure does make some nice coffee!

Have fun. Some of the things have been released. Some haven't. The forum is running v2 as of 10 minutes ago!

Remember, if there are any bugs that you find - please remember to tell us so we can rectify any issues!

This is an aprils fool joke right?

No. Why would it be?

Aprils fools day ? These would sound like some awesome things though

Just because it's april fools day doesn't mean that we are partaking in it. We are a serious company, and as such would never ever joke around!

Free-Ad-Free (x3) for all!

Yeah but is this on a long term base or is it just for a couple of days your doing the trial?

We can't give everyone ad-free. So I think it's just for only those forums that were made before and on today.

and if they don't wish to use it say today it would last forever?

I think it's a one off option. You have to use it today, or not use it ever!

:/ Kind of sucks then

Anyway still some good features there and will look forward to v2

That's the plan, as far as i was concened - Otherwise it'll not be financially viable to allow it for any longer!

I am red. Therefore you HAVE to trust me!

The things I could say on author(ity) from this thread...

Well, it was a nice dual-prank. I won't reveal both parts, but I am fairly confident I know them.

You don't check the staff board much, do you?

Nope, i try to stay away from that life-threatening place as much as possible.

Locked as to not confuse members anymore.

Just to clarify, 2 of those announcements are real and will be implemented soon

Just to confuse, we won't tell you which two so you'll have to guess!

Just to unconfuse

My Coffee Maker is a real one!
