    Firstly: Merry Christmas everyone!

    While you were all away opening your presents, GR has been upgraded and is now using an upgraded version of Invision Power Board.

    This upgrade will bring lots of new features, which will be added over the coming days.

    *JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THIS IS NOT GR V2 COMPLETED, NEW CUSTOM SKIN, GALLERY AND MORE ADD-ONS TO COME!*

    If you see any minor problems (such as missing/wrong images) then please post them below but if there is something major then please PM me :)


    The thread you are viewing will be updated to describe the new features so bookmark it and return to it every so often to hear the latest news.

    - Llamaman

    *edit* 25/12/05

    You may now get points for starting threads, polls and replying to threads as usual.

    You may only now change your user title by purchasing a user title changer from the shop or in your profile if you have over 4,500 posts.

    The fast reply box will now not automatically checkmark the "Enable email notification of replies" box.

    Quote and options button now fit in with boxes next to them.

    *edit* 26/12/05

    Added *Donator* subscription package - more information to be released soon.

    *edit* 25/12/05 ...uh, its still Christmas for me.

    1) Interest WILL be turned on! I'm going to try to persuade Joe to allow it.

    2) You can now comment on reputations you have received, good or bad. Maybe you were -repped for a reason you want to explain, thank or explain why you received a +rep.

    3) Moderators can now move, close, and open threads quicker. We can delete multiple messages in a topic, instead of closing the entire thread to ruin others fun...and we can edit signatures and what not quicker(including Battle Statistics if we add that back on).

    4) Admins will be able to delete reputations quicker and more sufficient, therefor you might see them post every now and then :P The downside...? A massive cleaning of invalid reputation to come.

    What you haven't seen...
    • New arcade games
    • Download system
    • New skin
    • Gallery
    • Tournament system
    • Revamp of the Sig of the Week process
    • 'Global' Announcement, so you can find out the latest news quicker, or a joke of the day from the adminstrators
    • New store items & hopefully interest.
    • GRD Stock Market
    • IRC Trivia Pack

    actually the rep buttons look kinda out of place, and the green pip icons don't really flow with the forum.

    oh yea, and I am supposed to be able to see my warning level?
