Well ..
I noticed that there are some changes in .Org
So I would like to know what exactly have been added and what have been left out?
Sry if this has been asked/answered in other places/threads :embarassed:

I know that profile pages are different and the social groups thing is new(at least for me) ..
But is there more changes??

P.S. I like the new look of the .Org :2thumbsup:

Take a look at this (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=104446)

The profiles page has changed to add a chat-like box to it, friends list, social groups, can add tags to threads, notifications for PMs, profile messages, and friend requests. I'm not sure what else. Omanes or someone else will probably know more than I do, but that's what I have noticed so far.

The forums software has been updated from vBulletin 3.5.4 to vBulletin 3.7.1. This is a fairly large step up which has resulted in a few issues with the forum. A list of most of the new features between v3.5 and v3.7 can be found here (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1450764#post1450764). I can't find the change log for v3.6.x, so some features will be missing from the list.

Many items, such as the awards system, links and downloads manager and arcade, are extensions. Essentially third-party programs which can be plugged into the forum to add, change or enhance functionality. The upgrade has caused many massive code changes in the forum software to occur. Those extensions which work on the depreciated code will henceforth refuse to function and need updating/replacing before they can work. The update has also added new icons to the forum which need adding into some skins.

Don't worry though, Tosa has assured us that everything will return to normal soon.
