    Holy Dear God there are a lot of features to this board.

    That's all I really have to say on the topic. I came back to the computer to check new posts, started clicking around, and an hour and a half later I'm still futzing with various things on the board trying to learn about it.

    My brain is done for the time being.

    One of the features I'm particularly keen on is the Groups feature on the boards here. It's looking to me like posts to the groups area don't show up in the regular forums, and are accessed differently than we are used to.

    So, at the top of the page, go to "Forum" then "Community" - in that drop-down menu, there is a link to the groups section of the board. I've set up a group for Mega Milestone chasers (it has open registration).

    Whoever sets up the group becomes the moderator of it. Feel free to play around with it. It's pretty interesting...

    I subscribed to that group. Not sure the need/reason for groups?

    Some of it is "I wanted to play and see how the feature works". My initial thoughts were that specialized interest groups may want to set up a group to contain posts and whatnot in a centralized place so that not everyone has to see everything.

    It could also be useful for planning/strategizing...

    FWIW, "New Posts" does not see new posts to groups.

    But the "New Group Messages" link under "What's New?" does...

    Love the new board... Trying to figure out what all these buttons, lights and knobs do though.
