New website

Hi Ruckers

I hope you are all doing well!

As you'd have noticed, ruckersforum.com has undergone a complete facelift.
We have done away with a number of features and have added a few newbies.

Gone are the news articles which we published.
Simply put, we are not a news website and there are already an abundance of them out there, we are an engagement platform.

We have now made the site responsive to tablet and mobile, so those of you who are on the go, you can now enjoy a richer experience on your devices.

We are still adding a few new features which will come in time, such as being able to view users profile's (not the secret stuff of course)!

You'll also notice that we have found a nice way to encorporate the other sports as well as Beeno's nonsense without having to scroll and scroll and scroll.

Your usernames and passwords are also now encrypted, making your data a lot more secure!


The site may have a few teething problems, so please remain patient with us.


We hope that you enjoy your renovated home away from home!


Have a great weekend.


Yours in rugga
Ed

Thanks for the early gift Ed!

Good move to focus on dialogue. Any new format always seems a bit strange initially, but this is an easy evolution. Thanks Ed, the Board should be better for these changes.

I wonder if Tokkie will remember his e-mail address to sign on. Edit and spacing seems to be better.

Not really. He posted a bit during the RC and about the YE team, but nothing since Ireland. Doesn’t seem to be of interest to him currently.

Looks nice Edd, but will take a bit getting used to. Can't see my Tazz throttled JW!

Thought I had lost the site again! Hope it is successful and that I can use it without messing up again.

I saw the edit function, but I miss a post specific reply button. I read the current reply feature (This box) as a response to the original (in this case, You Ed) poster, but I can not reply directly to any other post in this thread. For that I have to mention the name of the poster (like Moz, Draad, JW etc.).

OK, perhaps not a favourite by some, but I hope Beeno was informed of the new website and where to find it.

Thanks Ed, I managed to find the EDIT function. As for Beenz, he might be using an old shortcut that does not work anymore. I hope he used a legit email to register. I'll try and find him on LinkedIn and send him a message.
