[Denver]

Here are some of the things you can expect...

New design: The forums will be getting a new lick of paint and our current emoji (including fan favourite cat-dog Cat) will be retired and replaced with new models. You will also finally be able to embed certain media and social posts, such as YouTube videos.
Search: We'll be gaining an advanced search on the forums, too. You will once again be able to search through users, posts and threads.
Notifications: Any time someone replies to your thread or mentions you, a notification will pop up on your screen.
Reactions: You will be able to react to any post: like, dislike, laugh... maybe even cry if you're in the Politics forum?
Draft posts save: All posts created will now periodically save as a draft, so there is no more risk of losing long posts.
Time-out time: The new forum has a points-based warning system which means a temporary time-out rather than permanent bans for smaller offences.
Ban amnesty: In 16 years, we have amassed over 16,000 banned accounts. Starting now, we are going to be reviewing anyone who chooses to appeal their ban again. Those wishing to appeal should email forum@digitalspy.co.uk with the title 'Ban Amnesty'. Be sure to include your forum username when messaging!
