To All Members,
Happy New Year. Hope you are all safe and well.

As previously announced, we have begun making some changes to the Forum.
The first step was renaming the old 'News' section and replacing it with 'Forum Guide and Announcements'.

Under this new section are three forums: Forum Guide; Forum News; and Forum Management.

Forum Guide contains:
A Welcome to UMSF for all members - what we're all about and who to contact, plus some tips (this list will grow).
Rules and Guidelines - we have updated and expanded this section and we request that ALL members take time to read/re-read this section. It is also linked at the top of the page under the banner.

Forum News contains:
Basically we have moved all of the old 'Front Page Stories' under this new forum. Also, there is an 'Important Announcements' sub-forum (which you are reading now) which will contain any special news we have to tell you.

Forum Management contains:
Two new subforums:
UMSF and The Planetary Society - where we will add imformation about the relationship we have forged.
Forum Maintenance - where we will keep a record of any changes and announce various updates.
This area will also contain the former 'Forum Management' threads which have been temporarily removed.

The old 'Forum Management' section no longer exists.

This is just a start and we hope that you will take time to look through this new area, read the content and please feel free to let an Administrator know via a direct message if you have any thoughts or ask a question in the new 'Members Questions to Administrators' thread.
