If you can read this, then you're viewing the newly upgraded PC Review!

There's still a lot of background work for me to do, given the size of the upgrade, so it may take a few days for the site to be running as well as possible.

The new forum software is very easy to use and I'm sure that everyone will get the hang of how it works very quickly, but if you have any questions then please do let me know in this thread :D.

One big and immediate improvement is the "alerts" system, that will let you know if there is a reply to a forum/thread that you subscribe to, if someone quotes you or if someone tags you in a thread (i.e. @Becky - just place an @ in front of the username you'd like to tag).

I'll be posting more in the coming days and hours, but in the meantime I need to make sure everything works as it should ;).

@V_R I quite like the new tagging system. Might come in a little bit more handy than quotes from multiple posts.

It will take us all time to get used to the new & improved site.
Well done Ian, hope Becky kept you hard at it with endless coffee, cakes & support!

Something else that you can do is highlight text in a post, then click the new "reply" button that pops up - it'll let you selectively quote much quicker :).

Apologies if the server keeps going up and down this morning, one of the background scripts I'm running doesn't appear to be playing well with the site and the recovery scripts kick in. I'm working on fixing it right now!

Here's a query, Ian.

I noticed that in Members Online Now there are, listed, Members, Guests and robots.

What is that all about? :D:confused:
