Relax, everyone. He's working on it but with Carrie Ann gone for the better part of today, he's deep in the weeds handling admin stuff. The announcement will be up soon enough.

Oh I can't wait. I'm going to be buried in research papers and study guides all day so this will be a much needed reprieve.

Can I just ask you why is everything you say negative. I am sorry but every post I read of yours either you don't like this or that or there is some issue.

It was too keep us in expense if you don't enjoy that kind of stuff then maybe the forums is not a place for you to be. Everyone else is excited and there is always a sour apple in the bunch.

I am sorry but this is urking me. I am never down on anyone I always put my two cents in but you don't seem to happy about any changes lately.

Well, how fortunate that I've been working on a number of reviews, a little here and a little there! I get writer's block on one, I switch to another...now I see that that could work in my favor!

Well if EVERY post of mine you see is negative, you must not get out of the announcements much.

I get that it was supposed to be "suspenseful" ; or whatever but if you look it was written that " I will be unveiling this 'Big Fun' officially next Friday. So please keep your eyes on the forum next week for the official announcement." I would have liked to not have been checking this thread every hour to see if the "big event" had been announced if I could have checked my email ANYTIME THIS WEEKEND. Since it said to check the forums I thought maybe they were having a party, giveaway, or something else that was only going to last tonight. I also find it pretty funny that they can send a mass email to everyone about a one day event but they didn't do that for a big change in the points program (a big reason many of us come here)and when this change happened the Accouncement for upcoming changes was no where to be found and I even had to be linked to it to see it because sexis article announcements were obviously more important than changes to a site.
And yeah sorry I'm not so happy go lucky about more than half of the points being taken away. I'm a firm believer in punishing people that do something wrong and not the whole group. If they wanted to stop so much spam they wouldn't give so much for posing in forums or at least have a min character thing fixed into comments. Them changing the point system was less about spammers and more about getting rid of points that don't serve a purpose in advertising eden or keeping alive parts of the site that they like. (reviews, forums)
No one is making you read my posts, if you don't like them then just move on but I have a right to way what I think as long as it isn't attacking a particular person.

I really want to know whats going on and i've been checking back on and off all day, but I can't get private messages. When I try to enable them it tells me to verify my email which i've done multiple times in the past. At the moment it wont even send me the code to verify it with

The verification showed up just after I posted (of course ) and let me verify my email again so I was able to turn on messaging. I have tried to clear my history before but it doesn't seem to help. Anyway its working now and if the verification goes away again i'll be sure to let someone know.
