Forum Updates ~ 02/01/11

[Nicola]

It has been a good while since we've had some updates with it being a very busy time of year so I have a nice list for you today.
What do we have for you this week? Let's have a look.

• Removal of the 'Tabloids and Entertainment News' forum
• Increase of reputation limit per day
• Extra characters now allowed in forum names
• FAQ changes about rep and Habbo names
• Removal of Kazopark forums
• Removal of reality TV pre-fixes

The 'Tabloids and Entertainment News' forum has now been removed due to it's lack of activity over the past couple of months. All threads from this forum have now been moved into 'Current Affairs'.

Thanks to Milestone for this suggestion. He has won himself 10 reputation points and a Forum Update award.

Due to the amount of reputation you can issue each day only being 10, we have decided that this is too low and have increased the limit to 15 instead.

For a while the forum rules have stated the following:

B1. Forum Names

• May be anything at registration so long as deemed acceptable
• Must be more than 4 letters with no + or *
• Consists of the characters A-Z, 0-9, or `~@#$%^&()_-=[{}]\:;”’<>,./?

This has now changed so you are allowed extra characters in your name such as + and *. It has also been added that your forum name must be no more than 15 characters long.

Please note that all of the other rules still apply.

Due to recent role changes I now deal with Habbo names changes and the report reputation thread. The announcement for these changes can be found here.

The FAQ has now been updated with this information.

[Nicola]

Due to high inactivity of the Kazopark forums they have now been removed and all threads have been moved into 'Online Games'.

[Nicola]

The reality TV pre-fixes have become somewhat pointless recently and aren't necessary anymore, therefore they have been removed. The TV and Film pre-fixes will still remain.
