Wow I already miss old forums

I like being able to easily select what I wanted to look at and was very user friendly this seems harder to navigate

It’s going to feel a bit strange to begin with, but everything on here works - e-mail notifications, a nice obvious Reply button, all manner of things! :slight_smile:

If it’s a bit of a muddle at first, click Categories to format the layout more like the old one, while you find your way round:

And you can experiment with the software itself here, it’s a sandbox so you can play round and get used to how things work (try ā€œdrag and dropā€ images - no more having to code things into square brackets!):

I like it. I think Timothy did a great job. It feels like Reddit but without all the arm chair assholes and fluff bunny wiccans.

Yes, very confusing from what i’m used to. but fuck it. Lets all take as a chance to evolve. :smiling_imp:

It’s obviously more hi-tech then the last forum.

Can anybody change the like button from a pink heart?

Maybe Timothy could skin the forum and add his own flair.

I’m kinda kidding about the heart, but it just struck me as out of place.

Wow I see that the new forum is available to public now?? I was able to read all the topics without logging in! I don’t think that’s good for privacy…

At least this way, people won’t be able to make shit up about us! I;ve seriously heard some crazy shit about the kinds of things that we were likely to be discussing…

And we might get quality new members who are now able to see the forum before they join, and realise how fab we all are.

Really? There were people making up rumors about the stuff we were talking about? Why? What was the point when they could just have registered and seen by themselves?

I saw it happen a few times, mainly because people think a black magick forum is going to be full of unstable people, so they’d get all excited imagining what we must be up to, whereas in fact this is one of the friendlier and more helpful magickal forums out there. :slight_smile:

Because we are all a bunch of ā€œdemon evoking black magiciansā€ … pffff. Clueless. Oh wait. Nm.

Unstable? Us?

The spirits around me found that absurd and quite humorous. (that was a lie)

Quick, what’s the difference between a black magician and a ā€˜normy’? Black magicians actually want to hear voices in their heads.

There is strength in being your own island of stability as opposed to being a spiritual beggar, pandering to the almighty for strength. When chaos ensues, instead of praying, I just check to see if my ass is still there. Sometimes it isn’t, and that’s OK too.

Unstable! Pffff.

If being stable is working a 9 to 5 job I hate and blindly obeying some priest or politician while waiting to be dead with no means of having control over my own life then I don’t want to be stable any time soon.

Hey, so you guys should be able to change your own usernames now, this is something I’d get asked for fairly regularly and it just couldn’t be done before, unless Timothy did it - profile pages also have more capacity for information and even photos, no more hand-formatting bold or italic text, or or masking a URL with painstaking care and attention! :smiley:

YouTube and other videos just work, no more ā€œ!No longer availableā€ as the default title… :heart:

I quite like it but took me ages to find my private messages but found out why …

haha wasnt until i got a message alert I saw it

is there any chance that pm’s from the old forum will get pulled over at some point ?

For some reason it also limited me for several hours as to how many pm s I could send. Twas frustrating I was in good conversation lol

Mines being mean it won’t let me lol

I am really enjoying this new forum, I think it’s awesome lol

Minus all the inconveniences…

This software has automatic ā€œtrust limitsā€ and they do increase, increasing what you can do, but it takes a while. :slight_smile:

I don’t know for sure about PMs but I’ll add it to the list to ask Timothy.

I have raised maximum limit of messages per day to 75 for now.

Call me a romantic, but I’d like to think there’s an inner Aztec deity within all of us that is OVERJOYED at the gift of hearts.
