ATTN: PLEASE READ!!! Important Information about your Profile!

Did I get your attention? :evil:

I need to give you guys a heads up. We are going to migrate the new forum over here MONDAY NIGHT. The posts and your profiles and your stats should stay intact. The only thing that will change is your password!

Actually, you can use the same password, but when you try to login, it will tell you that you entered an invalid username or password. This is a security feature. Simply reset your password by clicking on the prompt "Forgotten your password? Click here!" Then, enter your email address and it will email you simple instructions to reset your password.

Its a growing pain to get you guys the features you have been wanting, like uploading pics directly to the forum and embedding videos, plus tons more features.

Get the word out.

Here are picture instructions.

1. When you come here and see the forum look like this, then the forum move is complete:
[img width=720 height=390]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gspf_zps49282ee8.jpg[/img]

2. Attempt to login in the top right.
[img width=720 height=390]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gsp1_zpsd4a3f41a.jpg[/img]

3. You will then get this screen with the warning:
[img width=720 height=341]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gsp2_zps2e9f3d2c.jpg[/img]

4. On the screen in the image above, just click "here" where the arrow is pointing.

5. Enter your email address that you used to register for this forum and a link will be emailed to you to change your password.

Also, here is a feature list of the new forum:

The ability to make forum posts, blog posts or write articles.

Ability to add youtube videos and embed them to play in the thread easily.

The ability to change the look of your profile page. ( Change the color scheme).

Plus a lot more. We are trying to help you guys have the best forum around. This new upgrade gives you guys a lot of what you have asked for. The pic upload and youtube embed are the big ones.

Here is one screenshot of the look. The gallery pics at the top is only on the main forum page. We went with shades of blue so we could all collectively will the water to always be blue, never muddy, with a hint of green for the Emerald green waters of our brothers to the East.

1. When you see the forum colors are blue attempt to login.
2. When it says login failed, click "Here" to reset password
3. Enter your email address
4. Check your email and reset your password.

It will literally take 2-3 minutes at the most.

Can't blame a guy for that!

Well, it wont be today :) Tomorrow or Thurs. I have three things to do to get it ready, but I really want to catch a Cobia.

Will there be a way to save threads to a favorites folder?

^^^ Even better, there is a way to subscribe to threads. When you do that it saves them all for you and lets you keep of with them in one place.

So yea, you will have a folder with all your saved threads and you will be able to see when there is a new post in one of them.

See, we thought of everything!

Excellent! :bow:

So many good posts that have primo info that will be great to have at the fingertips.

Thats a bit sad. I am probably going to change your username. Its too long. I removed the character limit for usernames from the new forum just because of your name. I will shorten it after I am done.
