Random, they had to pick a number between 1 and 1000 and the 6 closest got to try out the new forum.

How were these members chosen to test out the site?Not fully sure but members had to u2u Mark with a number i think between 1 and 40, dunno.. But Mark had the numbers and those that picked the right number were give the link to test out the new forum and report any bugs..

I could be wrong with how selection had taken place but i'm sure it was like that.. It was fair though, oh and all mods given a link to test it out and become custom to the mod layout and extra features.

*Trust me when we have moved this place will seem basic and part of the dark ages..



(*Based on what people have said about the new forum.)

No date has been set (that I know of) so I guess in the next week or two.

Sounds exciting! I'd have been happy just to have the old features back but I can see the new forum being a hit. Those arcade games could lead to leagues and tournaments and stuff.

Right, here's what the new chat-room is like...

It's basically a small section of the forum index, and anyone can just randomly come in and message, or they can just watch the chat without anyone knowing, which although is slightly creepy, is good.

I personally have experienced problems with it, I have to refresh every few seconds to see people's messages, although I'm the only one out of the people who have tried it that has experienced these problems, so I don't think it's anything to worry about right now.

You have different sections of the chat room, and one main room.

One is called "XFactor" which you go in to chat about XFactor with people.

We have requested a section for football, and I'm pretty sure that a Big Brother section of the chat room will be made soon.

It's got a very different feel to the old chat room, which only you can decide is a good thing or a bad thing.

You can also "slap" members in the chat room (/slap, and then the user ID here)
