So many Wow’s Ooooh’s, ahhhhh’s and O’man

So here is my Wow !

I have been reading through many different comments through all of the posts. I hear Great things and some who may be frustrated and such. I have always taken on change with a grain of salt, and then find ways to make the best value of changes.

In my opinion I see way too many future benefits that this new set of wheels has on it. It’s like driving a new car. Example My 1998 only had a radio and cassette player ok maybe a CD player but no GPS system and all the other fancy stuff the new cars have today like LCD screen etc.. you name it.

So as I drive around in this new and wonderful forum my brain just keeps spinning with ideas. I think this is just so cool, all of the new features.

So in this thread I would love to hear comments from fellow warriors on only what New Positive Benefits you see in the new forum and maybe choose one or two and then expand on them.

And Please no Negatives as I only work in a positive drive mode :--) Save those for other threads.

Lets get rolling with them

1.) First off I love the new easy Bookmarking system that will bring much advantage for many excellent posts. I am sure many can elaborate on the power of Bookmarking. This should give quality threads a real boost!

2.) Another very cool thing I have found is all of the new forms of communication we have for example I have added a Skype link for calling and instant messaging. This can really open the doors for some.

OK Now I know,
just 2 things - and already the word is yes they are great until someone abuses them so that is just part of being online as we know it. So as Warriors we can all step above those kind of thoughts and white hat ourselves around the forum in good manners. Those who don’t will never succeed.

So for any Benefits warriors want to bring out in this thread lets keep it in a positive tone .

Now I am just getting acclimated and checking things out and have only mentioned two Benefits so far. I will come back and ad more but lets hand this over to the next warrior for now and get some discussion on the positive benefits.

3. Ok one more Benefit - I will enjoy it when starting a new WSO and won’t have to wait to have it moderated. As stated, we know the drill, Now we can Just post a WSO, with the guidelines and go for it. This is great posting a WSO on the fly without waiting. Thanks for the level of trust Allen !


Well lets hear from everyone,

Cheers and to Warrior Success,

Paul

    This will just help a lot for networking mainly. It's the newest version of vBulletin, one of my websites is just like this, it's a good piece of software, runs well and has tons of features. I'd say PMs are a little more convenient now and the vast control panel options compared to the old WF.

      Very true. The networking upgrades are definitely a huge plus. This is my first post in the upgraded version

        Then scroll clear to the bottom of the page where it says "Miscellaneous Options" it talks about Message Editor Interface. Change that to "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" and you're good to go!!!

        Well here is another benefit I found.

        I did the above awhile ago, and then just went back to edit my signature and found another new benefit.

        Once you have the above option turned on. You can just click the hyperlink tab to insert links into your text instead of having to place all of the code Not sure if this option was on the old one if it was I never used lol.

        Cheers,

        Paul

          I love the idea that you can give "rep power" to someone AND you can say why.

          There have been so many times I've come across and excellent thread, and bookmarked it on my own system for future reference. But because of being shy or just not that forward, the poster never knew how much I appreciated the effort. NOW...I can show my appreciation in a way that counts. I love that.
