Ladies and Gentlemen,

We have advanced very well with DEVELOPMENT of our final Blog.

Still a number of things to sort out, but we are here on the NEW BLOG.

The transfer of USERS to the new location was a bit troublesome, but most of the AUTHORS have been successfully transferred.

It was not so easy to transfer NORMAL SUBSCRIBERS, so most of you will have to do a quick REGISTRATION there, with the same Username and Password.

Our NEW REGISTRATION PROCESS is much more secure and asks a couple more questions… and what’s more, it allows for BANNING / SUSPENSION in case of bad behaviour, so we can easily keep the Trollers away.

New Registration requires VERIFICATION from our side before one is able to comment, simply because it is part and parcel of the screening process to keep trolls out. Between grootblousmile, Ed_The_Lion, Koos & SuperBul we will have a centralised E-MAIL ADDRESS referring all the VERIFICATIONS to us by end of business on Thursday 13 August 2009, making VERIFICATION very quick and efficient.

Not only can we ban E-Mail Addresses but we can ban IP addresses as well and re-direct those we really do not want here to other web addresses, so that they cannot even read our SITE from that IP ADDRESS.

To follow still in development, includes our TERMS AND CONDITIONS, CONTACT PARTICULARS, ABOUT US, ADVERTISEMENT SPACE & CONTENT, AUDIO & VIDEO CLIPS, PHOTO GALLERY…

The REPLY Button is already there, but needs a little tweak to include the COMMENT NUMBER… hang in there for us in this regard.

The SIDE WIDGETS, LOGS and LINKS still needs refining, however it was impossible to implement without migrating the FULL CONTENTS of the BLOG first.

We will also send a MAIL to all current subscribers, with exactly the same content as appears in this Post.

Kindly do not expect everything to run seemless during further development, but we should be up and running 99.9% of the time.

Now I need a good, solid sleep…….

We wish you a speedy and uncomplicated transition to the NEW SITE.

Regards,

GBS

(WEBMONSTER)

    19@grootblousmile
    i knew it …. you closet wp supporter!!
    that photo was definately taken at newlands!!

    anyway well done, gbs
    ennie
    anner ou!! 😉

    just a thought … if you wish to attract bloggers from nz etc,
    surely the articles need to be in english?
    dont get me wrong … its quite nice to read articles in afrikaans
    but its a definate no-no if you want to go into competition with other rugby blogs!!

  • 21

    20@Asbak – Hellooooo

    Articles will MOSTLY be in English, but there will be some Afrikaans content too, after all we’re a Saffa site.

    You are right, the Photo was taken at Newlands, on 16 February 2008, when the Stormers played the Bulls in the Super 14…. and the Stormers lost that day, of course.

    20@AShley

    Most kiwis would be happy if they were even bi-lingual articles 🙂

  • 23

    22@Rugby_Princess – Policy is still to be decided, but it will probably be something like

    70% Purely English Articles
    15% Bi-Lingual Articles
    15% Purely Afrikaans Articles

    In what Language bloggers comment, is up to them, but you’ll probably find that as soon as some of you “Foreigners” are on, that we’ll accomodate and converse mostly in English.

  • 24

    Jis jis
