I note that the new forum software is no longer credited to MVM, it is now copyright IBM. Does this mean that as we have now gone away from a third party software we can expect some other new features in the future........such as Private Messaging?...........Pretty Please

You're the fastest gun in the west, or is it the east? Was identified shortly after the website update, around march 27 in the new web design thread. Hope if it ever comes, default is off and is distinctly only working on invitation, the wanna be a friend cycle. All these people who think to dump unsolicited messages. Since becoming a member does not know hardly any feature, and having experienced several 'become a member of my team' pms', not to speak of spam potential and who's to administer control of that, no thank you.

Do we know who maintained MVN for WCG? Was it knreed? If so, those 2 changes together might auger well for a forum software upgrade. However I wouldn't expect WCG to ask any of us for our opinions on this.

Don't know when this changed, slow of the hip, but the footed copyright has 3 links suffixed of which I only remember the contact us. Now there's also privacy policy, two thumbs skyward, and site map.

This way the reader knows, same as forum posts record date/time of last edit or is looking at something entirely new. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Apr 30, 2014 9:37:15 PM] |

Thanks for pointing this out to us, we applied the same new footer throughout the site, and in doing so, we accidentally deleted the MVN attribution notice from the forums. We'll be adding that back..
