All,

Due to a security issue with the previous shoutbox, which could potentially lead to the hacking of the website, along with a number of bugs that I was unable to resolve, we have now installed a new "temporary" version of the shoutbox.

You will find the shoutbox will "grey out / dim" after a period of time without use. This will mean you will not see updated shouts until you either shout again, or become active on the forums... for obvious reasons this is to keep the server resources low... yes it will lead to some frustration due to not seeing updated shout if you are not active... that I'm afraid it is here to stay until the official version of the shoutbox is ready... if you want a full on chat system, then please use the club chat system or MSN.

You will now also find you can close the shoutbox (for those who dont wish to view it) by clicking on the blue arrow at the top right.

The club staff are currently reviewing the club rules based around the shoutbox. These will be updated and posted up for your attention soon... please be aware we will be applying a new banning policy for users who continue to abuse the system.

The following can be used in the shoutbox:

/me
/custom command = /me custom command
/ignore user
/unignore user

How do you PM people using the new shoutbox? Was used to just clicking on their name before.

Can you also modify your shouts? like before if you mad a typing error, you could just double click on your text and change it??
Jim
Ability to edit your own post enabled... to do so you need to click on the "FiestaSTOC Shoutbox" link... yes its not as easy as before and no there is nothing I can do about it.

The PM function is now disabled.
