I'm not reallly sure where to post this, so I'll just post it here.

While digging through the backend of our site, I discovered the answer to a little mystery that's been brought up a few times over the past few months.

The mystery:  "Why are guests printing old threads from our forum?"
The answer:  Google (and maybe other search engines) has indexed the PRINT version of some of our public threads.  So when someone uses Google to look for information on Kingdom Hearts, they may end up HERE.  They're not actually printing anything, they're just reading the PRINT version of a thread.

I thought that was interesting, since it's confused me for so long.  In time maybe I can figure out how to manipulate search indexing to our advantage.  I'm coming to realize how much I don't know about the internet.    ;D

Can we open the members forums to the Guests. They'll have a chance to look at the Plan a Game night section aswell as some of the more intimate sections, although it will also subject em to Rex :P

Failed is putting together a master list of multiplayer games for Game Nights.  Be sure to post your collection THERE.

I've been exploring the possibility of integrating an official games database for all members.  Something that would make it easy to cross reference eachother's game collections so you can find someone to play a certain game with.  It may not be neccessary now, but as time passes and our population grows, it may become neccessary.

In the meantime, GO HERE and give a list of multiplayer games you own to make organizing Game Nights a little easier.

It'll cull the need to suggest us playing say Lost Planet when i can look and see only a few people own it. We can stick to games where we'll have a high turn out or 2 games with reasonable turn outs and everyone has a chance to play.

I've been making a lot of structural changes to the site.  Some changes you will notice, most you won't.

I've given access to the entire forum to all members.  Those of you with less than 1000 posts may now see some new areas of the forum you hadn't seen before.  Have fun!

Since the site is customized to each member, you may see some glitches or errors that others may not.  If you do see anything weird on the site (besides Failed) let me know.

I have created the official 360° Fahrenheit Community Gamertag.  Add it today!

If any of you still have x360fahrenheitx, xFahrenheit360x, or o360Fahrenheit on your Xbox Live friendlist, feel free to remove them.  These were previous attempts over the past few years to create a universal Community Gamertag, but are no longer functional.

Is it still broken?

Anyone else having issues with the "Unread Posts" links at the top of the site?
