Some changes around the site.

[Austin]

Most of you all have probably noticed that we have re-organized our forums slightly. We have moved them around to avoid forum clutter and posting threads in the wrong forum. We also have done this to prepare for a few new things that we will begin in response to your survey answers.

We have created an entirely new forum section called Special Features. In this new forum we will have a centralized Trip Report posting section and informational articles.

In response to the centralized Trip Report section we have moved all threads from the previous Trip Report sections to the centralized section and deleted the previous 2 sections.

These new sections will be using new modifications added to the site this past week. In the Trip Reports they will be posts as a blog and will allow comments to be posted. In the informational section they will be posted as a Article which contains more options to edit and post your thread and will post it as a article.


Also as a side note we have officially given out all 100 Founder Award badges. If you received one it is because you were one of the first 100 members. We prioritized the handout of this badge to those members who have made a post to the site. after that we handed it out to individual members without a post.

Sorry for the lack of updates but its been an extremely stressful month. We are working hard to bring you the best we are very excited about next year as SFKK enters the 2010 operating season!

I just want to clarify on the Informative Article section. In the surveys, several members said that they want us to add more information on other rides, manufacturers, how coasters work, and other things coaster-related. Our solution to that is that we (the staff) and other members can write editorials on different coaster subjects and other people can learn from their knowledge. It will take a little bit of time to fully develop that section, but you can expect an editorial from me this weekend. Right now I think it will be an overview on B&M coasters.

We also recieved some feedback that we should do more contests. Right now we have Coaster Wars going on and more spots should become available for that game soon. We also will be seeing the return of Nitrofan's Trivia contest tommorrow! You can find more information in the contest forum section. We are working on more contests and if you have any suggestions, we would love to hear about them.
