I'm a nice guy, and even I've said no. MattW is not a nice guy, so what do you think he'll say?

 

[Dipak]

can you allow me access testing forum.

*Places a heavy vBookie bet that MattW will say no*

Ok thanks for the interest, you can enjoy the new forums when we move over but in the meantime you won't be asked to participate in testing

No more asking please, thanks

cricket 2005 forum will available in new forum ?

 

[MattW]

Will we have a replacement for the arcade section?

Looks like there is - I haven't tested it out yet, but will add it to the list.

 

[Dutch]

Sure. But let that be a warning to you - never become Dutch's victim by mistake again!

@ethybubs giggled like a girl, oh stop it, oh stop it, oh please dont, ........take me, take me, take me,...

Such a great day, So many people have regretted crossing my path that day...oh the humanity.....but it was fun.....now, excuse me, time to oil the chainsaw.....

 

[Dutch]

yeah but no but yeah but no...................

 

[IceAgeComing]

Considering the web address of the testing forum - I could probably never link to it and leave it as an IQ testing barrier.

I agree; planetcricket.org/bigbuttes is a very hard forum address to guess...

 

[Dipak]

So when are we moving on the the new site?

 

[MattW]

We don't have a date planned yet, I'm hoping to get it done this month.

 

[Vivek7]

Man, that's a pretty good looking website!
KUDOS to all of them involved in making it!

 

[Till Valhalla]

Except Fantasy Cricket what else could not be transferred?
If you need volunteers I can test the desktop site on Mobile.

 

[MattW]

The casino will go. The rest of the changes are mostly things that will be different as opposed to missing.

One of the things I like is that PMs will be replaced with private conversations - which will mean you can have multiple people in a PM thread and they can all see everyone's responses to that - instead of a lot of CCing and replying to multiple people and not being sure who saw what.

Another one I like is auto collapsing quotes - if someone quotes a big block of text, you see a little preview of it and a button to expand it out. Makes threads much nicer to read.

There's plenty more as well.

Marvelous.

Btw what function do the 'Follow' option/button do?
