    You may have noticed in the last couple weeks some weird things going on in your avatar's area on each post. Thats because I have implemented several new programs that I'm still working on that will bring us some new and fun things here at CP.

    For starters, you'll notice the 3 rectangular bars under your avatar. This is from a program called VBExperience. It measures how active you are on the boards, be it posting, creating threads, just visiting, etc. Each time you are active, you earn points which get turned into Credits (fake money). I'll tell you more about that in a minute. Each bar represents something different.

    Blue: What your current level is (0-100). This will affect your ranking image pretty soon as we will be seeing new ones for this.

    Red: How many more points you need to 'level up'.

    Green: How active you are based upon several factors, mainly posting and visiting.

    Also, you will notice that the awards are now called achievements. There will not be anymore need to request these, as all of them are now automated and handed out by the computer based on criteria set. Its taking some time to get them all adjusted, but we'll get there.
    And there will also be special awards that only 1 person can hold at a time that will be displayed as well.

    Now, the credits you will earn are going to finally go towards a new application/game that i will be releasing soon. I've mentioned it a lot in the past, but its finally coming to fruition. It is a trading card program where you will be able to buy packs of cards that cost credits. Each pack will have probably 10 cards in it. Each card will be a character, ship, beast, etc. from star wars. There will be lots of commons, and fewer of some than others. And of course, sought after rare cards. Now, you can simply try and collect all of them, but you can also play a game with them against the computer or another cp member. Winner gets credits and/or your opponents cards. Also, you'll be able to trade with each other and sell your goods.
    We will also have tournaments as well. Right now, I'm creating the first batch of cards to be released.

    Very soon, our site will be back and better than it ever has been!

      I say there's a pretty good chance that most people won't think to try to backdoor approach to get to this thread to read the request to try the front door then go through the backdoor to post their results from trying the backdoor.

      Welcome to the site CM! Did you have trouble getting here?
    1. RollaJedi's Avatar
      yeah, made a new person and it wouldnt let me in to this thread through the forum or 'whats new' tabs. I could only post comments on the 'home' tab. I'm asking for help with this on vb.com.

      nice name, huh?
