Hi yall,

After a minor 5min outage, we have a new version of MMGN online.

This update is to encourage more user content, make things easier, and fully utilise the Status feature.

There are so many updates. I will try to go through the major ones here:
- New Look! Cleaner BG, more flavour masthead!
- Less Ads! Removed the annoying Leaderboard on the top
- No Auto Refresh!
- No new windows - most of the stuff open in own window
- Removed Video and Games from side bar
- Everyone can write Articles! Along with News & Reviews
- Community Content will have a permanent spot on the side
- Community News / Reviews will be shown in all News / Reviews pages
- Community content will have a clear "User" label
- Featured User content will be shown on the home page
- Removed latest Comments (replaced by Status)
- Status will auto update when someone comments
- Status will auto update when someone votes / wish / own game
- Links in content will be underlined :P
- Game profiles are slightly updated (pics at the bottom)
- Reminder when someone comments on your News / Reviews / Articles
- PM listing layout issues fixed

To stay updated with the latest Status, you can point your RSS reader to the Status RSS Stream mmgn.com/...

That's about it, many small fixes here and there to make your life easier

Please let us know of any issues :)

I think refresh for the forums is the best option. News is something that appears along the side panels anyway, so whenever someone goes into a new thread or whatever they will see any news news posted.

Forums and status should be refreshed imo.

Can we have the user-submitted tabs back in the profile pages?
Eg. News/gallery pictures/videos/reviews submitted by a user?

I'm fairly certain that My[Console] had these, but from what I remember, it just disappeared with the MMGN roll-out.
