    In the next week or so, we expect to upgrade our site. You'll still have all the functionality you like, there will be improvements.

    The content editor will be better and faster
    Mobile browsing will be better and faster
    You will be able to mention somebody in a post (for example type @nadine) and that person will receive notification.
    You'll be able to quote just a portion of a post, rather than the whole post (you'll still be able to quote the whole post as usual as well).
    The menu structure will be a little different. It will include a new way to find content called activity streams. You'll have the option to create your own so, you can discussions the way you like.

     
    We'll all be learning this together and I think it will be just a matter of learning the new functionality, which we can do over time.
     
    The one thing I wanted to flag for you is this. We will not longer have separate login and display names. If you have changed your display name over time, this will affect you.
     
    When we change, log in with your current display name. If you've forgotten it, you can request it be emailed to you. So be sure your email address is current (you have access to it)
     
    I cannot tell you how many times people have lost access to their account because they cannot remember what email address they used.
     
    That's it. Let me know if you have any questions.

    2015 Colts 'Swag Closet' Drawing
     
    We'll have a drawing for tickets to every home game this season. So, be sure to watch for each one. The Swag Closet drawing will remain open all season. You only need to enter this drawing once and you are entered into every drawing we have this season. Right now we're giving away schedule posters.

    So, you either had something that you just had to post or for some reason, you decided today was the day you stopped and started posting.
     
    Whatever the reason, welcome! We're glad you're here.
     
    It can be a bit confusing getting started on any web site.
    Breath deep, it's not as hard as it looks and most everyone here will help you out.
    To get started, check out your settings
    There are a lot of options there but one you should play with right away are your notification options.
    If you have any questions, please shoot questions to me or any of the Community or Forum Moderators.

    If you have just joined, you belong to the Rookie Group. This is your time to read and reply to threads and get to know the members and how we operate around here. It's also a good time for them to get to know you. If you like, you can make your first post here. Another thread you might want to read and reply to is here: http://forums.colts.com/topic/36427-i-love-this-forum/
     
    A good rule of thumb is be nice, be civil. Don't be 'that guy'......even if you run into someone who.....well IS that guy. We have all types here, you are not going to like all of them but I'm sure you will find many that you do like.
     
    Don't expect everyone to be as knowledgable as you. We are casual as well as avid fans here. Don't feel stupid if you are not a football genius. Most of us aren't. Lucky for us there are several here who actually ARE and are more than happy to explains X's, O's and even salary caps.
     
    Our members are male, female, all age groups, & even fans of other NFL teams. All of these people find ways to get along in real life and we expect the same here.
     
    Here's another idea, as you read through threads, click the like button. Everybody likes likes. It's a good way to start letting people know you are here.
     
    Read the rules if you want specifics. We are a moderated site. We aspire always to be a family friendly site. If you violate the rules, you will likely hear from one of the mods. And as you probably heard your mother say "We don't care who started it"
     
    Rookies have posting restrictions. Please do not take this personally. We do this to catch spammers, trolls, and posters with bad attitudes. This makes for a much more pleasant place for our posters. As a rookie, you may post up to 5 posts per day and all of them must be approved by a moderator before they go live. Don't worry, this only lasts for 10 posts. After your 10th post you belong to the New Member group. New members are pretty much like Members, they just have fewer posts. When you reach 100 posts, you automatically become one of the Members.
     
    Rookies cannot create threads. But once you graduate to the New Member group, that restriction is lifted.
     
    Looking forward to your posts!
     
    Let me know if you have questions. Here's a couple of "how tos' to get you started: http://forums.colts.com/index.php?/blog/1-moderation-and-other-site-topics/
