Greetings ponies, griffons and Diamond Dogs!
As you've all probably noticed - we have upgraded to the Proboards v5! This comes with lots of accessibility options for players and admins alike. I am not aware of them all yet and I'm sure there's bound to be bugs around so if any of you encounter anything good or bad about the v5 please let us know!
I'd like to offer my sincere gratitude to Bowie (Kleptomoonlit) for helping us fix all the kinks to prepare for this transfer as well as suffer through my rumbling and perfectionism. Thank you!
We are also introducing a NEW profile element - Badges and Accolades!
To those who have participated in any of the Final Ritual Strike Teams this would be common knowledge - Badges are awards given for the completion of extremely risky quests and or plot threads they each come with their own bonuses detailed on said quests. For example - all ponies who participated in a strike team received a strike team badge and of course are recognized for it throughout Equestria.
Accolades are more long term awards given to players who stick around and work their way up through plotlines and quest arcs. For example - an accolade will be given to any player who has stuck around since the first plotline (any player who joined after the final ritual started will not recieve this accolade) and a SPECIAL accolade will be given to the players who participated in multiple plot quest threads on that plotline. Accolades also come with their own bonuses - more reason to stick around and be as active as possible!
We would also ask any and all players to place a link to their characters' Bio in their profile for simple access for admins and players.
I would like to apologize for the "related articles" fiasco that has been added with v5, at a later point I will attempt to make the site ad-free to remove those. But first I must check to see if it even will.
Lastly I would like to point out that Celestial Divide is STILL accepting donations - these go to renewing the Cbox premium, making the site ad-free, obtaining artwork for the site (Such as our KICKING banners, scene arts and future badges and accolades) and every dime helps!
Reminding you all that we're close to 10,000 posts! If we can get them by the end of May every character on the board will recieve a special bonus! We only need 445 more posts so let's do it!
Thanks for tuning in everyone and have a good one! Feel free to comment here if you have any questions, comments or complaints!

Always happy to help, Red. Also, if anyone finds any bugs, kinks, or what-have-yous, feel free to let me know. I may not be able to fix everything, but I'll sure try my best!
No need to worry about posting a link to your characters' bios in their profile pages. I've already got something set up to handle that on the back-end, and I'll be updating it every time we get a new user or character.
