Heroscapers Upgrade Thursday Night

Posted August 5th, 2014 at 03:55 PM by truth

Heroscapers will be down Thursday night/Friday morning while we perform an upgrade to our forum software. When we return, the site will look slightly different, but overall should be the same place you know and love, just with new features.

The highlights include:

Better PM system- allows sorting, filtering, quick-replying, and searching of your PMs. Also has a nice PM reply history feature.

@mentions - if you prefix someone you mention in one of your posts with an @ symbol (e.g., @truth, @Aldin, etc.), your post will inlcude a link to that person's profile page. That person can also see in their UserCP that you've mentioned them and can click on a link to go directly to your post.

Revamped user profile page - includes new customization options, friend lists, public messages, and a boatload of information.

Post attachments - Except in the off-topic (non-Heroscape related) forums, you will be able to attach images and files to your posts.

There are plenty of other niceties that you'll discover as you use the new version.

This upgrade will take quite a few hours to complete, so don't count on being able to check Heroscapers anytime that night after 10pm ET.

Nice try, but you're still sleeping on the floor.

Awesome! That @ function's likely going to save me a lot of copying and pasting over in C3G.

Excellent. I can see a lot of uses for the @ function. The only problem I might see is it overwhelming your User CP if it gets used too much.
Overall though, I look forward to it!

I believe that users will be able to disable being mentioned via @ if they find it obnoxious.
