BIG NEWS: We hope to launch a new forum system in the coming days at www.guardyoureyes.com/forum/index

Besides being more advanced than this one, the main benefit is that people signing up to our website as members will automatically be able to use the forum without having to sign up in a separate place. (We are looking to unify everything under one sign-up, including the 90-day chart, chizuk e-mails, etc.)

Before we launch, I'd like to ask some guys here to test it out and write to each other back and forth, and test the new PM system as well... Keep in mind that the current posts are from a long time ago, it is not up to date.

Keep in mind as well, that whatever you post there will be lost when we make the final migration from SMF to the new forum.

Only members of the website can post on the forum, so if you want to test it and haven't yet signed up, sign up here: www.guardyoureyes.com/register />
Please post your comments, bugs, etc... below in this thread...

Thank you!

1. How do I get into this new forum? With my current user name? Do I need to reregister (neither seemed to work for me).
2. The design was very hard on my eyes
I am not big enough to not do something I WANT to do because I know it is wrong, but I've been around long enough not to want to do many things, even though they are really enticing at the first glance.

1. I approved your account. Try to log in again...
Everyone else should sign up to our new website and then they will automatically have access to the forum.

2. In what way?

I think it means "crust".

Has this been migrated yet?
It looks like other users have all their old stats. How would I do that?

It looks like they took a snapsot of the site from a few months back and threw it on there for testing. When they go live they will move it all over in real time.

Guys, I'm looking for some real feedback please. Once we move it may be too late. I hope to move within a day or two. Now is your chance to test and give feedback if there are any bugs, problems, quirks, irks, etc...

ONCE WE MOVE, THIS CURRENT FORUM WILL BE LOCKED AND NO LONGER IN USE (READ ONLY).

It won't let me make an new account with my anonymous email and I can't log in with my present password. I tried a few months ago and I tried again now.
The Blind Beggar is a character in Rebbe Nachman's story of the Seven Beggars.

I want to guard my eyes.
I do guard my eyes.

You already have a verified account, so it seems you just forgot your password. Send me your password to eyes.guard@gmail.com and I'll update it for you.

I don't like the design either, like kosher.
Too bleak, the font is lousy.
Sorry...
Baby steps.
If the road is pulling you down, it's a sign that you are going uphill, so just press harder on the gas!

Have a great day - unless, of course, you made other plans.

I think it's nice.
I had to re-register to be recognized by the system, but then it worked fine.
You may want to place a sign on top of the main forum page stating that established users of the old forum will need to re-register in order to post on the new forum.

The term "karma" remains unexplained, and, in all seriousness, is not a Torah concept.

When creating a post, the buttons on bottom show up as "P" and "C"
It would be clearer for a first-time poster if these were spelled out, although the balloons do pop up when moused over.

Thanks Guard!
