"Greetings and Welcome to our New Community Forums!

We have decided that one way to overcome any issues presenting themselves with the previous forums, was not only to solve them, but to fully upgrade our forums.

The ToZ has now a new forum, better than ever before, that is beautiful, response and modern. Everyone is encouraged to login and begin posting and learning on the new forum.

Do not be afraid to experiment! Also, we are aware there have to be a lot of changes/improvements on the layout and everything that has to do with the forum. We are putting in the work to make it happen simultaneously as everyone accommodates.

-Posts, avatars, user accounts are as they were before.
-Your passwords are as they were before.
-Community is as before.
-Improved theme, light and dark theme as per your choice.

Stay tuned as we increase and improve everything that has to do with the forum experience. We know certain things need improvements.

Meanwhile:

1. Artists/Designers - Those with high art skills such as creating banners, backgrounds and so on, could message me at [ email redacted ]
2. Programmers/Web Designers - We need more programmers and others who have valuable skills to join the designing efforts under the official group of ToZ Coding. That will do wonders for the community.

I want to thank ApolloAbove [JG] for the fact that we worked together to get everything working and upgraded; but we have a lot more work to do. For troubleshooting logins on other problems, contact him at [ email redacted ]"

There are 3 problems i found while using the site,

1. The main page takes a lot of time to load while using the TOR browser, this is not as big of a problem on the other pages.

2. I can't open up featured content in a new tab.

3. sharing pictures in a conversation does not work properly, it asks for a url link, if you supply the link it does not work. (One way to make it work is to toggle BB Code and upload it that way)

The same with the forum logo at the top. It seems these objects are treated as images in a way even though there is a link in them too.

If you go to your account and Preferences, you can choose who is allowed to start a conversation with you. You can choose anyone, people with an account, or people you follow.

"Saluti e benvenuti ai nostri nuovi forum della community!

Abbiamo deciso che un modo per superare eventuali problemi che si presentavano con i forum precedenti, non era solo risolverli, ma aggiornare completamente i nostri forum.

ToZ ha ora un nuovo forum, migliore che mai, bello, reattivo e moderno. Tutti sono incoraggiati ad accedere e iniziare a postare e imparare sul nuovo forum.

Non aver paura di sperimentare! Inoltre, siamo consapevoli che dovranno esserci molti cambiamenti/miglioramenti sul layout e su tutto ciò che ha a che fare con il forum. Ci stiamo impegnando per realizzarlo simultaneamente in modo che tutti siano accomodanti.

-Post, avatar e account utente sono come prima.
-Le tue password sono come prima.
-La comunità è come prima.
-Tema migliorato, tema chiaro e scuro secondo la tua scelta.

Resta sintonizzato mentre aumentiamo e miglioriamo tutto ciò che ha a che fare con l'esperienza del forum. Sappiamo che alcune cose necessitano di miglioramenti.

Nel frattempo:

1. Artisti/Designer: quelli con elevate competenze artistiche come la creazione di banner, sfondi e così via, possono inviarmi un messaggio a [ email redacted ]
2. Programmatori/Web Designer - Abbiamo bisogno che più programmatori e altre persone con competenze preziose si uniscano agli sforzi di progettazione nell'ambito del gruppo ufficiale di ToZ Coding. Ciò farà miracoli per la comunità.

Voglio ringraziare ApolloAbove [JG] per il fatto che abbiamo lavorato insieme per far sì che tutto funzionasse e fosse aggiornato; ma abbiamo ancora molto lavoro da fare. Per la risoluzione dei problemi di accesso su altri problemi, contattalo a [ email redacted ] "

This is a late response, but I really like the new forums! 😁
Thank you to everyone for their hard efforts, and for making the moving so quickly!

I love the new forum; in particular, I like being able to "like" things people say and show support when I don't really have anything to add otherwise.

@Hunter You started a conversation with a bunch of us but you locked it so nobody can reply to you. Please undo this if you want us to reply. You also locked your settings so we can't message you informing you of this. If it's a bug instead then let us know so we can fix it :)

Yes, we can now have private conversations (DMs) :)

The reason you can't DM some members is because they have their privacy changed, to not allow any DMs from anyone, or to only allow DMs from people they follow. If you want to DM someone who has their ability closed, you can tag them in the forums or write on their profile wall (if they have that ability enabled) and ask if they would like to DM with you.

I am very grateful to the gods and everyone who has made the forums much better.

The new design, functions and features really make the forums more cozy and create an impressive atmosphere of comfort.

I really liked the dark theme (y)

Every user now also has the ability to have a profile; we are still learning the board around ourselves. Sort of like your own personal page/space.

On this profile, you can have elevated things as you grow in the ToZ, like the ability to have this personal space to post news, or whatever else you want.

We are still examining everything. Chances are also that some Zevism who had posting privilege might have lost them over the transfer [We will restore all of this as we go].

Every user can also now petition to change their name, directly from the platform [a feature to not be used more than 2 times total]. When approved, this will be done.

I am also attaching a file here to show to everyone another feature, like the attaching file feature. This pic below was directly uploaded here, without the need for external services like imgur. Direct upload.

Attachment 3

We want to move more into the community aspect here, with everyone having a more vivid presence here.

Your personal space and preferences matter a lot, that's why we want this reflected in the platform.

More abilities and conveniences for each member as well, compared to before, will make forums more pleasant to be in, easier to use etc.

Without violating the character of the forums which are for learning, the stronger community element such as the ability to selectively send messages etc, is also very helpful.

It's just Great!

I have been waiting for this for a very long time and I am very happy that now it will be possible not to crop avatars and not edit images, it took me a lot of time.

I am grateful to Father Zeus and High Priest Zevios Metathronos for the large number of new, good and positive changes in all respects that have occurred recently and continue to occur on our forums.
