[QUOTE="Administrator, post: 1013521, member: 1"] A few changes have occurred recently (a few new sub-forums) and we've replaced the user group (newbie, veteran, etc) with the type of diabetes (this was done so people can see who is commenting). [B]Updates[/B] A forum update is planned for January next year, tackling: [LIST] [*]Better experience for mobile/tablet users (2 out of 3 visitors uses a mobile/tablet) [*]More than just a [I]like - [/I]ability to dislike, agree, disagree through buttons [*]Integration of diabetes type / user group together - so you can see who's posting (in terms of type) and their reputation/experience amongst the forum (currently, you can only see TYPE of diabetes now - you can still see Newbie/Veteran/Champion etc on a user's profile) [/LIST] [B]Sub-forums[/B] Also, which other sub-forums would people like to see. Discussions have included mention of: [LIST] [*]MODY [*]Ladies Problems [*]Young People/Adults with T1 (some people don't fit into the Children & Teens section as they are in the 20's) [/LIST] Any others? [B]Rule change? [/B] The forum rules currently state: [I]...members shouldn't give medication advice to people with a different type of diabetes from them. If any posts concern you, then please do report them[/I] This was mainly to save new members being given information from someone who didn't have their diabetes type which didn't suit them; rather than actually preventing a person from joining in. Could we collect some thoughts on what people think, what people would like, and how the forum rules should evolve to cater for a growing, diverse community? :) [/QUOTE]
