  • [Announcement] Forum Upgrading Notice

    Our forum will be upgraded on the following dates:

    German Forum - June 15th 2017 04:00 AM - 08:00 AM GMT+2
    French Forum - June 19th 2017 05:00 AM - 08:00 AM GMT+2
    English Forum - June 20th 2017 10:00 PM - June 21st 08:00 AM/10:00 PM EDT

    This will be a major upgrade.
    We are now planning on starting the maintenance at 10:00pm EDT on June 20th.
    Due to the size of the update we estimate it to take at least 10 hours, but possibly 24 hours or longer.

    Please take note that this forum will be down for a decent amount of time.
    Once completed, you may still notice some changes happening for the next few days as we begin to utilize all the new forum has to offer.

    Thanks for your understanding in this matter.

    Uh just one question: How will we check for updates when the forum will be offline?
    Vicious! Approach with Caution!
    Because some noob has called me such and had said it so

      Silly, check for updates before the 21st for the time the maintenance will start and the expected length of the downtime.

          Nope, no previews.

            You're the head forum moderator so of course you should know ...

            Nothing to do much here.

              Absolutely right, but that has nothing to do with the question about previews.

              First thing is first- a successful upgrade. Until that happens, there's no point in worrying about anything else.

                  When you say major upgrade, you mean as in a rehaul of the forums, and maybe something more important will be changed?

                  Well, good luck...

                  Offtopic: should the giftpack section be updated to include packs for codes for new games? User packs I mean...

                    Major upgrade is us getting the most up to date version of the forum, which has many more features than our current version has and hopefully will eliminate the bugs that have been plaguing us.

                    Once completed, we will go through each of the new features and decide which we want. We may also be adjusting the color scheme. The end result could be not much of a difference on the surface, or it could be a completely new look and feel. For this reason, there's no way to provide a preview or say exactly what will be changing, but we are excited about it.

                        And somehow, I have a feeling once this upgrade is complete, the machines will take over the earth and we will have to form up a resistance =P

                            what about making it possible to log in on forum without having to sign in by the r2 website first.
                            Will make a lot of the former Kabam now wonderhill players a lot happier to!!!!!. Ridicules to have to sign up at R2 to get on forum here.

                              Slightly confused.. The forum is R2's, so if you don't sign up for an R2 account, how else would the forum know your login info? It could not use your Wonderhill login credentials, since that's a completely different company's website.

                              You only need to sign up for an account at the R2 website, and then you only need to log in through the forum's log in link at top right corner of the page. This was not an option with the previous forum version.
