By Jody Robinson, Community Manager

We explore the changes to your benefits, challenge you to a Mario Kart Wii, and more.

To-Do List


- ENTER your best Mario Wii Score
- WATCH Zorine and Jess play System Shock 2
- SIGN UP to play Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 at 4pm PT this Friday!

Tip: Free Registration Changes


If you overheard the news about the subscription service changes this month, the changes we rolled out on the site today will be no surprise. Free registrants now have access to create a user created board, customize their forum name colors, and download videos in HD.

- User created boards: To create or change your UCB settings, go to members only and you’ll find a way to create your UCB there.

- Custom forum name colors: To change the color of your username in the forums, go to your settings under members only.

- HD video downloads: To download a video in HD, visit a video page and click the downloads button.

@JodyR  

Two things:

Once created, how does one make changes- the User Created Board Admin doesn't appear to be accessible via Settings after the initial creation.

Do we not have the ability to administer to the board pages? E.g. is it possible to delete posts/threads/etc?

@s_h_a_d_o @JodyR You may be encountering a technical issue if you're not able to access the board as an admin. If you want some step by step help though, I'd suggest heading over to the how-to-gamespot board. :D

Works for me. But I had to refresh the page a couple of times for the options to appear.

The link about the changes seems to be off...it directs to the house of horrors video.

Never mind, got it to work by fooling around a bit like Kyoki suggested. Although it seems very buggy right now, I was able to change my color but then the option disappeared again once I clicked apply.

Everything still looks members only to me. Am I doing something wrong?

@Vari3ty It may take a moment for it to kick in for everyone! If you don't see these changes, clear your web browser cache.

Got it working, currently takes a bit of refreshing/clicking the tabs. At least for the username colour change.
