Forums
We did a massive clean up to the Forum. A lot of forums have been deleted and merged with others. If you get lost, look under the forum titles and the description can help you find your way around. So go check them out and post!
Merry Christmas!
We just want to wish the community a very merry Christmas! Hope everyone gets what they wished for!
Internet Explorer be damned!
This is just a quick update to announce that the site has just dropped support for Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8.
I've rewritten the site menu's that you see in the header in plain HTML instead of relying on a JavaScript plugin (in a gradual effort to modernise the codebase) and those browsers do not support the newer markup.
Let us know if you have any issues with the menus in any other browsers.

Groups being discontinued
This is just a notice to inform everyone that from the 2nd of April groups will be completely removed from the website.
Any content stored in your group will not be accessible from that day forward, so if you value any content within your group please make a copy of it before the date above.
No new groups can be created from this point forward. They have been an unpopular feature since inception and they were badly implemented into the site.
I'm cutting the clutter from the site at the moment and groups falls under clutter. Sorry to any and all who use them and the inconvenience this may cause you.

Latest Member is no more...
I have replaced the latest members section with a random members section.
Many people wanted it gone and now it is. I couldn't just leave an empty void there though because it just didn't look right.
Hopefully it'll be a welcome change, but feel free to voice your opinions in the comment section.
Enjoy!
