As many of you noticed already, I've added a few additions and made a couple of changes to our forums.
They are as follows:
- Karma store
Lets you buy ranks using karma. They change colours too!
- User ignore
This lets you ignore certain people and have their posts/activity hidden from your eyes. To use it, simply go to someone's profile and click the ignore button on the top right.
- Profile edit function.
You can now edit your profile and add some details like your clan and level.
- New profile page layout
Your details now have a new neat format.
- Friendships
Lets you add people to your profile page for easy access, however, you need to be a familiar to request friendships! (Spam prevention). To add someone, go to their profile and click send friendship request on the bottom left. To deny a request, you need to accept it and then remove the friend by going into his profile. (Experimental)
- Discussions now have the creator's name and avatar on the left.
- New sidebar links.
- Minor adjustments to the forum layout.
I've tested and adjusted everything I could find, but if I've missed something, please do tell me via a private message! :)

Once more, thank you :D
EDIT: Keep getting emails when someone adds me as a friend, there is no way to turn this off :P
This is a workaround, and it's pretty good. Just something different than normal boring ranks, and karma can be used for other things in the future.
I wish the post background colours to be reserved for our staff only, otherwise it would turn the forums into a rainbow.
I don't like a white screen because I keep my room darkened (light hurts my eyes) but I also can't see colors unless they are on this white screen. I can't see any other colors in the new ranks except for the staff's red & if it were on any other color background, I would not be able to read them, not even the red ones. Being seceptable to light & being color blind really sucks. Keep it like this is best for me.
