Tampa1257 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hey Prez, When we were talking in Tampa, you mentioned that FOH would be rolling out around the first of August with a New FOH Forum format. So when are ya breaking the New News? Was that August 2008 or 2009 or 2010??? Really, it is going to coinside with the roll out of the 2008 EL's and RE's right? :-D Just waiting on the new, new news El Tyrant, King and all around good guy!

El Presidente Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 We are ready :-) As you can imagine the change to a new format will mean plenty of questions needing to be answered. The New format will roll out the last Sunday of August 08. Jason Chipperfield our IT guru leaves next week for The Beijing olympics to support his wife Bronwyn Thompson who is Australia"s long jump representative. Lisa is also ducking down to New Zealand for a week mid month. Not far away now ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilroy Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 » We are ready :-) I'm sure that y'all are... I'd just like to remind our illustrious leader that I'm a full time web developer/programmer and will work for Cohibas. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Hemingway Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 oooh i can't wait. will the forum be layed out more like a standard board? for example like ICC or Club Stogies layout? just a wonderin. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy2 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Like the ICC format its user friendly and also has a live chat while you can see the threads its fun talking to the members all at once. This also is good makes the forums more active while we are talking live also the conversations we have will make more topics to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 » will the forum be layed out more like a standard board? for example like » ICC or Club Stogies layout? I think that is the plan - become more like other boards - homogenized. I believe the name is also changing - to FOH Sport (or is it foh open).......

We have personalised it as much as possible. However keep in mind that the current format (which I like) is about as secure as ken's grip on reality. Some will be disappointed. Others will love it. I will be sorry to see the current board go but understand we need to move forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Hemingway Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 my question is being taken out of context......... i am not asking if FOH will become another board, in fact that's silly to even respond in a manner as if i were..... i was refering to "LAYOUT"......the look,options,settings etc. :-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby07 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 There's an awful lot of great posts and reviews on the forum. Will you be able to preserve them in the new format? If not, will you be able to leave a link to the old forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
