Lots of new features, and lots of new stuff to play with. Leave some feedback in here if you like, or just comments.

We're aware that the "classic skin" is currently not correct

Tbh you're cheating, you can't post here whilst the forum is offline :P!

But yes, woohoo, 3.7. Boy that was a lot of work, haha.

And yea, lets not do that again... Nightmares about "No" option boxes now.

Nice to see we're keeping with the times, but can I ask which features have been disabled, and whether or not they'll be added in the (near) future?

Oo. I love the idea of new slates & warnings not meaning anything!*


Good update imo!


*Although, it still says Infractions: 1/0 (0) when I post?

All infractions SHOULD be lifted, they were a couple of hours ago anyway, something appears to have screwed up. Some whipping is in order I think!

I can't see my warnings/infractions in UserCP, but it says 'Infractions: 1/0 (0)' when I post still? ;)

SS, its maybe cos' you have more new features than us normal users? I hate that buttons (which I know are being fixed), the new evenlopes when on 'New Posts'. The consoles are gone on the Classic Skin :( The profiles are confusing. I suppose it takes some getting used to.

Ahh thanks for that.
I hope some of those other details do get added, they look very nice!
Maybe it'll be something which could be tempting to buy VIP for... :o


This thing in UserCP looks cool to :P
Networking Contacts (http://www.habboxforum.com/profile.php?do=buddylist) Group Memberships (http://www.habboxforum.com/profile.php?do=editusergroups)
Group memberships is for pixel artists/coders obviously.. but is "Contacts" the same as the "Friends" function?

As far as infractions go, the postbit simply hasn't been updated yet. Its like when you go from being staff/VIP to normal member and it updates once every hour or so and moves you up the levels, same sort of principle :)

Later on indeed. We are still deciding on how to proceed from here. We first want to ensure everything is working fine before adding new stuff ;).

I still got an infraction lol but oh well, also I only just woke up (sleeping til half 4.. woo :D) so I can't share in your pain haha
You don't actually have an infract, the post area just says you do but in your profile it doesn't. I am working on fixing this. Please post this in the bug tracker so I can keep you updated on it.

Lol im not too keen on the new things next to forums saying if they have posts or not :)
That isn't meant to be like that, was just a mistake on my part, sorry about that. I hate them myself too ;).

The old smilies are just so retro they're now cool. :P Just like corduroy suits and awful colour clashes, wish I could say the same about Madonna though, she looks so repulsive in a corset now.
I was trying to figure out how the edit history worked earlier when the all the features were being tested, I've only just found out how to do it. This'll be an ideal way to spot Moderators who mess up their edits first time round. :P

Indeed they do, they've done that since their introduction, its only really noticable on the dark skin though and only if you're actually looking for it. I didn't notice it at all until someone pointed it out in a thread after the userranks were added.

Anyway, that's not what this threads about, there's a bunch of new features on the menu and we're talking about twinkling stars... :S

We have introduced a new group where new registered users a placed into. This group is "under moderation" therefore all new posts (until they have 15 moderated posts) must be approved by the moderation team before they are posted. This is to keep spammers and trollers off the forum as they seem to enjoy the freedom of making new accounts. Obviously this won't stop those that are very determined but it will help us catch many of them a lot faster.

When a new member joins are they aware of being under moderation, and if they are how are they advised?

I'll bring that up with MAD, I don't know the mechanics of it. The first suggestion that comes to mind would be an automated PM.

I would agree this needs looking at. Having not been a new member for a long time I have to assume that they get a welcome pm so this could be altered to include the new post approval procedures?
