the first thing i did notice for the new forum version is, double the space in the inbox, we currently have 50 max on here and 100 in the new version which is great. i have had pm`s and calls from people asking how to start a new thread etc, i know it`s not rocket science but it does show that people do struggle with it and anything that can make it more user friendly has got to be good. i also like the "new forum post" section on the right hand side as well. it does have a nice feel to it and we will be keeping all of our posts when it gets moved over so it`s all good. is there any chance we could have say a "learning zone" where all the info and posts from such as lenny and amber so they are all in one place. like our own on site guide and regs :) maybe free up some of the top of the pages on stickys. looking forward to seeing it in action. can`t imagine how much work is going into the change over.


Phil,

you now have a 2000 PM limit mate. :)

that's a figure I can change on any forum for any usergroup. It just gets a bit mental when you have high PM storage though as you'll end up needing to erase them all in the future, page by page. So try to keep on top of them and erase any old ones periodically so it's not such a chore in the future.

Me and Dave have a 4,000 limit on tilersforums and I keep getting messages saying I'm 93% full and need to clear it up. I clear it up and within a couple of months I'm doing it again!
 
I'm sure as with any change that isn't to extreme, of course, the initial change can be a little frustrating but after a week or maybe two it will be no bother because it has at that point become normal.
