I've updated the members section. There are 27 new info fields:

*favorite actress
*favorite director
*favorite soundtrack
*favorite book
*favorite writer
*favorite band/singer
*favorite album
*favorite game
*favorite food
*favorite drink
*cpu
*ram
*gfx
*mobo
*hd
*monitor
*mouse
*mousepad
*joystick
*keyboard
*headset
*speakers
*burner
*webcam
*floppy

I guess this is another step in the transformation from counter-strike clan site to a broader site. Counter-Strike info is still available, but it takes up little space at the member page now.

Members can update their info at the control panel.

small update:

I've never made an anouncement, because this feature was introduced with the new site design: The newcomments page.

The older site also had this page, but it took about 20 seconds for the page to complete the search for new comments anywhere on the site. This newer version had a "mark everything read" option. Once you've pressed that link the page will render very quick, because the script can skip more than 99% of the database content.

You can see if there are new comments for the 5 latest headlines and the most recent poll at any page (small green dot appears in front of the link), but this page checks ALL headlines, polls, maps, wars and blogs for new comments.

So now you know.

small update 2:

New bot commando: !check
It checks for new comments and lists them (max 4) in a pm.
