Feature Updates

[Key]

Hello!

2 days ago many members reported an issue with some popups appearing when they tried to log in and to search on the forums. In order to get rid of that (which was an exploit to an old plugin we had - the one dealing with URL structure and Likes system), we upgraded the forums platform and also got rid of all old plugins (which were more vulnerable to such exploits).

 

Thus, we have a new Like/Thanks system. The button is located in the left, underneath posts. The list of the members who liked a post is displayed right under the specific post and a list of all likes a member gave and received can be found on their profile, About Me section, under Statistics.

(located in the navbar, right under the forum banner), as the old one was very slow for a while now. We have also added (and we will keep on adding) new games to it. As before, those who get awards will get credits at the end of the month - 100 points for each award (since now we'll have more games, you can get way more points).

 

On the homepage of the arcade just the top 5 players are shown. If you want to see all, you can either click on your username in the left corner of the arcade page (above your avatar) or on the link underneath the avatar.

 

You can also challenge your friends to see who does better at a particular game. Underneath each game, there is a Challenge button. Click on that button and enter the username of your friend, then Challenge. The friend will receive a notification to join the Tournament and you both will have 24 hours to play the game. The Tournament will be displayed on the homepage of the Arcade for those involved in it.

Note 2: Those of you who are unable to play the games, install Adobe Flash from
