This is the second update in which I'm detailing the best new features added as part of last weeks highly successful site upgrade. These new shortcuts make it easier than ever to use the site and stay in touch with each other, and it's important you know what the are. Here we goooooo!

Go to Last Post: If you'd like to read a topic from the beginning, simply click the topic title. However if you'd like to skip to the most recent reply to that topic, click the time/date details on the far right of the topic listing, as seen below. This will take you directly to the most recent post.

Load More Topics: When viewing a particular forum and you reach the last topic on the page, there's a text link following that last topic, which once clicked, promises to deliver exactly what it says - Loads more topics. The cool part about it - It's done in real-time without having to refresh the page....so once clicked the topics from the "next page" are auto delivered to the current page, extending the list of topics every time the link is clicked.

Advanced Search and Social Links: Towards the top of every page on the right side, you'll see the search menu. If you would like to perform a more detailed search by date, member name, or other criteria, click the 'gear' icon for Advanced Search. To the right of the 'gear icon' are the social icons that once clicked, will take you to our: Facebook page, Twitter page, RSS feeds, and our contact form if you wish to send us a direct email.

Go to Top: When you end up at the very bottom of a page, there's an 'up' arrow, as seen below, which once clicked will take you directly to the top of the current page, so there's no longer the need to manually scroll all the way back up to the top. Click the button and consider it done!
