SO what's with this Club thing? Does a mod of the club have to accept when you join? And, I assume you have to be accepted in order to post?

Some clubs can be set up that way but I created all of the current initial batch of clubs and they are joinable by anyone without approval required.

Ya'll would be considered as part of the Nashville / Middle-TN area in my opinion.

Not a Club kinda guy so ok, but I rarely get out to Nashville, I hate that traffic.  Anywhere past that and I have to have a heck of a reason to venture that far.

Is it just me or does the forum seem generally faster and more responsive to page loads since the upgrade?  The new server has always been pretty quick but this is a whole other level of fast, based on what I have been seeing.

Much faster on my devices!!

Hmm odd. I joined the Tri-Cities club but can't post in it. Using Firefox.

Haven't tried with Firefox yet but once you get up in da club there is a drop-down menu just under the banner.  It is set to "Home" by default.  Click on that and it exposes several more options including "yourclubnamehere topics".  Click on that and then you can make a post.  

Not all that intuitive but not too bad.

Update:  Works on Firefox mobile (iOS) but I haven't tried it on a proper computer yet.

I'm reading that they are going to make some adjustments on the Clubs feature with the next maintenance release.  It is a new feature and the first iteration of it, so I am not entirely surprised that they need to polish it up some.

Club event postings must be approved by a moderator.  You can disregard the one I just posted for Social Distortion in Knoxville next Friday if you want.  More of a test than anything.

[xsubsailor]

 What's the "Leave Club" button over on the right hand side for? Is that like signing out or de-joining?

One would assume.  Click it and see what happens.

My membership in the club was terminated. Reminds me of the BCD I got from the Boy Scouts

Yeah, let's try to keep the events relevant to shooting, TGO gatherings, etc.   I love me some Social Distortion, though.

Is the current "theme", "skin", "display", whatever the only one available now?  I recently lost my sunglasses  and it's very bright in here ...

@btq96r and @No_0ne ... and anyone else who found the white color scheme to be terrible on the eyes:

Scroll to the bottom of the page.  Look for the "Themes" link.  Select it and then select "TGO Night Owls" from the options.  I hope that helps a little.

I'm almost done with the other Theme for the rest of the crowd.

Ahh, much better!  Thanks.

In addition to the dank, the wood background is visible on the sides a bit again as well.  Always thought the forums look great (light or dark) framed against that a bit.

Very welcome, and thanks.  I like the wood background also.
