Well, if nothing else you shouldn't get logged out every 5 minutes :)


The forum is exactly the same, except I've stripped out a load of unnecessary features that were just clogging up the system - the link to the forum is on a tab at the top of the page. Logging in on this site will also log you in on the forum. (Use the same user name and password you use to log into the forum to log into this site.)


You can still use the old forum if you wish, but remember with the new Raid Manager here the raids will no longer be posted in the forums.


There are tons of bugs and things I'm still working on so be patient please :)
