again...the site is in flux...as well as the features...of which blessings are...patience is a virtue...

some things are free somethings are 1 blessing....

or we could put everything to regular price adn take months of research before giving out refunds...which would you prefer? Considering the system's giving 7-10 blessings per post?


:sigh:

I was only saying that it wasn't free that it cost 1 point/blessing. I have no issue with how that is being done in regards to restocking our armory. :thumbsup: My only beef is the SS issue and blessings. :sorry: The rest I'm cool with. :D

The other comment I made about having our blessings taken away for every PM we make, I was only mentioning that it's still a problem as someone told me last night that it was fixed. :sigh:

Good morning everyone!

WOW! There's been a lot of posts to catch up on since last night. Guess I need to get caught up on this thread before asking any questions...

Thanks again to everyone who's involved with the upgrade. I'm slowly learning my way around. :thumbsup:

Thank you for all of the hard work! :clap:

Members and Staff,

Welcome to CF2.

There are a lot of changes, and it would be unlikely that everything could be covered in a single announcement.

The first thing you'll probably notice is we have a new style. The second being there is a new forum structure. This was done in an attempt at making things a bit easier to navigate. There are a lot of forums on CF, and it can be somewhat intimidating for new members.

Some of the forums are marked as "For Christians." These are forums specifically for Christian fellowship and discussion. Theology (with the exception of Unorthodox Theology), Edification, Ministry, and Teens are currently marked as "For Christians."

The Debate category has also been rearranged. Politics, Ethics/Morality, and Philosophy have been moved to the Society category; Creation vs. Evolution has been moved as a sub-forum of Physical & Life Sciences. General Apologetics and Non-Christian Religion have been moved to the Outreach category.

There will be a new moderation protocol, released shortly. Reports will be closed, but new features installed that allow members to keep track of the status of their reports, as well as mod actions taken against their posts and threads.

There are several new features, some of which are incompatible with old features. The Character items and Pets can be transferred over to the new engine, but everyone is going to have to reacquire their items. For the first month, all pets and characters will be free, so as to allow everyone to rebuild their items.

Chrisbot, unfortunately, was not compatible with the upgrade.

There are a lot of new features, too numerous to go into much depth about them all here. These are a few:

An updated chatbox engine;
"Thank You" notes;
New smilies (in addition to current smileys);
Updated home page profiles;
Extended reputation display;
Photo albums;
Image icons and reorganization of UserCP;
New ranking system (members with the most posts, the most activity, etc);
New pets and character items (in addition to current pets and character items);
Upgraded blogs;
An information portal and site-map (to help with site navigation);
Ability to "tag" a thread, and use thread prefixes;
Drafts (so that you may save a draft post and later return to it).

Some of these are installed already; some will be installed over the next few days. Please report any bugs (in the Report Bugs forum) you come across so the techs have a chance to fix them

If you have questions or need help with something specific, you can contact these staff members and they can help:

Ravenscape and LibertyChic, for questions about the Armory and Character items.
CelticGrace, for questions about the Pets and the new P3TZ engine.
Angeldove97, for questions about the new blogs, photo album, gallery, etc.

May take some time getting used to, but I like the new layout.

Help!

Can someone direct me to the link regarding the new bank. I read what it said in the check area and I don't understand. How do I get to savings and what collects interest and what does not? Do I still have a job or is the cf unemployment office open? :eek: :D

Looks like I'm in the unemployment office with you!!

This feels a little like going back to school after summer vacation and everything has been rearranged. Ah if only I was that young again. lol
