Hello everyone! The update is live.
If you see anything that doesn't work right then let us know in this thread.
The update is loaded with new features but here are some of the main ones:
- Sphinx enabled search with autosuggest
- Ranking system, the higher your reputation the more you'll be able to do. Right now this feature is pretty basic but will be expanded more later. You'll need to post at least once for it to calculate your current rank.
- Reputation is based on badges and reactions
- Automatic badges
- We're sticking to simpleHTML instead of Markdown
- You can now start three types of threads, Discussions, Q&A and Polls. Each have their own set of features.
- You can tag your posts
Some problems we're still working on:
- Some styling might be off, let us know in this thread
- Quotes from before the update no longer show their author
Additionally, a few people will be joining the moderation team within the next few days and registration will go back to normal.
Comments
Now to leave some feedback:
This is what full page editor looks like. The buttons are still there, just very hard to see. Enabling "night theme" helps.
Aforementioned problem with white font in editor also affects the unexpected emoticon dropdown:
It'll probably take some time to get used to things...

THIS IS JUST MY OPINION:
Honestly, it looks really bad. It looks like an odd social network (well, all social networks are odd...) with all those badges, emoticons and this liking system.Last thing for fun: (I doubt it will work with this new system but whatever...)
@Test
I'll stay on the lookout for any weird stuff with the CSS, please post in here if you find anything fishy
also I'll probably redraw all those default badge icons and smileys later so we can have juicy pixel art instead of gross glossy pictures
EDIT: There should be more space between each post. It looks so messy with everything pushed together like this. Also the vote section below each post should be separated with a square in it.

Also, the last X comment badge is at 50,000. good luck
I'll add some spaces between posts I guess
also sorry about the whole activity thing, we're contacting the forum platform's devs so they can look into it
