Discourse v2 has been viewable for staff for a few weeks now, but today marks the official start of beta testing for the skin. All official Aether beta testers have been switched over to the new skin, as well as one lucky person whose name I will not disclose (randomly chosen from a list of people that posted in the last 12 hours). As time goes on, I will be selecting more lucky people that made posts in a certain time frame.

For those of you who are let in on the new skin, I ask a few things:

1. Do not share screenshots with other people. Why? It ruins the surprise for others. However, see reason 2:
2. The skin is largely undeveloped right now. A lot of what we set out to do is complete, but a lot is not yet complete. Therefore, a lot of things look wildly out of place and awkward, or are just flat out impossible to use.
3. Your job begins later, just a few days before release, when we test out glitches.
4. Your Fame counters will be reset, so feel free to upfame/downfame everyone and anyone as much as you like for any reason. Your current Fame is NOT IN ANY WAY an indication of your actual Fame.

Let me know if you have any questions, and feel free to discuss aspects of the new skin here and pique the interest of the unfortunate peoples still using v1.  :-X

I really don't think saying "let me on the v2" is going to work.
Being a beta tester has to be earned. Spend some time on here, make good posts, and who know what will come for v3!

Yeah if it does I'll be sure to use that line to get in as well  ;)  Just gotta be patient I suppose (although not gonna lie I'm just a little jealous of you beta testers!). Hope it's awesome and I can't wait to see it (and the new website).

Don't be too upset man, everyone will be able to use the V2 soon enough. As for the cards, after they are released, take a look on ebay and I bet you will be able to find some for a reasonable price. Although, you might want to try and look into a paypal account if you are purchasing stuff online, otherwise you are just going to have to give your credit card number over in order to pay.

I'm on V2 and I have to say I'm really excited about it, much more than I thought I would be.  The main reason is that the core functionality of everything I want to do has not changed at all, so everything is natural and easy.  Oh, and that notification thing that wasn't working a while back?  Works great now!

So, are we getting any sort of compensation for not being picked? A cookie maybe? ;D (No pun intended... No, really.)

I can tell you that you've got 58 fame if that's any compensation.

I seem to have more fame than anyone else which is really weird.  I figured Don would be number 1 but if the time you spend online lurking/reading is a factor then maybe not.

Thanks, I'm flattered!  Not yet rocking the v2.  Fame is a strangely complex formula, only some of which is known to me.

Yep (I'm on V2 as well) and I can only assume it was from my bout of insomnia over the last little while.  I seem to be sleeping much better now, so I assume people will start catching up to me before too long.

Like I said in the initial post, the Fame you guys are seeing now is not your true Fame. I've been upfaming/downfaming you guys like crazy to test functionality. Your Fame will be reset to default upon release.

Mystery is the basic appeal of magic. Once the secrets are known, the magician becomes a mere manipulator, an actor in a suspense drama which has little impact because the audience knows the ending in advance.

I believe those are badges. Alex said "The badge feature is not yet functioning, so you won't see the real badges people have."

Thanks Alex! Also, when you do officially release the Discourse v2, do make a FAQ thread. All of a sudden I come on here and everything has changed. I really like it! Although, I do have some questions as to where things are around here.

Feel free to ask!

We will have a launch thread detailing all the changes. There's so many new features it's going to be hard to account for all of them. =P

This is very nice.

But, I cannot view this with iPhone. The site loads very slow on the device and make my iPhone crash. T-T
However, it's perfect on computer.

BTW, could you explain more about the fame system?

Alex chose beta testers to test the Discourse V2 so you may have won the sale thing, but I don't think therein was a winner for that yet. So you were probably a chosen beta tester.

Is the fame shop not up yet? I'm guessing that won't be up til it goes live. Silly question

I, too, owe Alex some public thanks - I got switched to v2 a few days ago, thanked him in PM.  It's taking a little getting used to, but I have no complaints.  I'm itching to see badges and Fame at work once their out of beta and live.

Just some words of encouragement: Those of you in v2, please abuse the heck out of the Fame system right now. We need to see how it acts naturally as well as from abuse. Downvote/upvote any posts you see, just for the heck of it (try and have it really reflect your opinion though).

All Fame will be reset during launch.

I hope you all enjoy the new ranks. Here is how they now work:

As you post more, your rank goes up, that much is obvious. However, when your rank bar fills up, you earn yourself a gold star and begin ranking up once more. Instead of the previous 13 ranks, there are now 25. Now instead of going up to 10,000, they go up to 100,000. Furthermore, many ranks have become easier to obtain while others have become harder.

Here is a summary of each tier:

Posts 0-1 = Tier 1, no rank or progress bar
Posts 2-189 = Tier 2, no stars, black progress bar
Posts 190-749 = Tier 3, one star, navy progress bar
Posts 750-1499 = Tier 4, two stars, blue progress bar
Posts 1500-4999 = Tier 5, three stars, red progress bar
Posts 5000-24999 = Tier 6, four stars, platinum progress bar
Posts 25000-99999 = Tier 7, five stars, demonic progress bar
Posts 100000+ = Tier 8, five stars, glitched progress bar

Glitched progress bar? That sounds awesome... But I don't think anyone will reach it anytime soon. :P
Mine would currently be navy, then. I like that.

Yeah, I was wondering why my rank changed overnight from Aficionado to Queen of Clubs...  And why MagicAddictz went from Aficionado to Jack of Diamonds...

man nothing is going my way to day i won't be able to get the vortex deck i was going to get five but now i can't and i didn't get v2 of the forum that is messed up :( :( 


#firstworldproblems

I'm on V2 and I have to say I'm really excited about it, much more than I thought I would be.  The main reason is that the core functionality of everything I want to do has not changed at all, so everything is natural and easy.  Oh, and that notification thing that wasn't working a while back?  Works great now!

Sounds a little like facebook , well, that's my guess  :P  I'm really excited about the discourse v2!!! can't wait to see the new designs and format!!!

I hope you all enjoy the new ranks. Here is how they now work:

As you post more, your rank goes up, that much is obvious. However, when your rank bar fills up, you earn yourself a gold star and begin ranking up once more. Instead of the previous 13 ranks, there are now 25. Now instead of going up to 10,000, they go up to 100,000. Furthermore, many ranks have become easier to obtain while others have become harder.

Posts 2-189 = Tier 2, no stars, black progress bar
Posts 190-749 = Tier 3, one star, navy progress bar
Posts 750-1499 = Tier 4, two stars, blue progress bar
Posts 1500-4999 = Tier 5, three stars, red progress bar
Posts 5000-24999 = Tier 6, four stars, platinum progress bar
Posts 25000-99999 = Tier 7, five stars, demonic progress bar
Posts 100000+ = Tier 8, five stars, glitched progress bar

wait, does that mean I'm using the v2?  :-\  :o  I can see those!!!

Thought you couldn't find it.  However, it does exist in both versions...

Hold your horses, Tex.  You'll be on it soon enough.  With the amount of posts you make, Alex may tap you before the premiere like he did for me.  He picks people sweepstakes-style, each non-Lolaq post being an entry.  Just don't flood the boards with meaningless or "me too" posts.  :))

V2 is great.. although I am having some problems with the notification feature. Even if I click on notify on some of the threads I want to watch it doesn't show up. ^_^ but of course its still not 100% finished so glitches like that will be present.

I'm really eager to see the AC website! I hope they open it soon! ^_^

i was not even thinking of the fame shop, i want people on v2 to start abusing the fame system to see how it works like alex mentioned we could do.
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.

People say nothing's impossible, but I do nothing everyday.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

They're designed to be extremely difficult to earn. Some are easier than others, but a lot are insanely hard to achieve. Although, if you know what they are given for, it makes attaining them a lot easier. Baggs, you're one of the only people I've seen with the Gold Club badge. Congrats!

I think I've been upgraded! Thanks a lot! It's awesome! Only two things I regret:
1) The "view new replies to your posts" button
2) The fact that all the awards take up so much space on the posts.

Other than that, I really like it and am quickly getting used to it!

Yeah it was pretty weird at first and I thought some things took up too much space but I've adjusted to it now and I really like it!! It's an even bigger plus now that badges are live

Mystery is the basic appeal of magic. Once the secrets are known, the magician becomes a mere manipulator, an actor in a suspense drama which has little impact because the audience knows the ending in advance.

v2 is great, much sleeker and stuff, with badges, but it's not complete yet. You're missing out on something, but the more you want it, the more satisfied you feel once you get it.
@Alex - thx for repairing the badges! I now have 2 (the easiest 2).

Many elements of the interface are a bit larger than V1 so it's a little weird to adjust to scrolling more and the large separation from one comment to next. That's how it was for me but I quickly adjusted and love it!

When I designed the new topic interface for v2, I wanted to make each post a little home for the poster where you could flaunt your stuff. Topics still read easy for me, but now there is the added fun of seeing WHO each member really is in the community.

So here is a list of upcoming badges before release:

Social Media Interactor [Manually unlocked badge for being a huge help for AetherCards marketing in some kind of way)
10 Feedback & Support posts
200 Magical Cardistry Bonanza posts
Upfame/downfame 25x in one day
Upfame/downfame 125x in one day
Spend 10 days online
Start 200 topics

The difficulty ranges from extremely easy to very difficult (downfaming illegitimately can easily trigger our automated sensor to reduce your Fame!)

1. Do not share screenshots with other people. Why? It ruins the surprise for others. However, see reason 2:

I do this well. I was switched over to v2 when this post first appeared, but I've pretended not being switched so far  :mindf-ck: :mindf-ck:

v2 here as well. One suggestion alex, would it be possible to make each of the various achievement icons about 50% the size they are now? I often look at the forums on my iPhone and all those icons eat up a lot of room (about 50% of the height of the screen if in landscape mode).

Maybe having those smaller and in perhaps 2 rows would get some room back.

Other than that, looks pretty cool!

For me it also seemed like a problem at first but:
1) I quickly got used to it
2) If the badges where 50% the size:
    a) We wouldn't be able to see them well
    b) It wouldn't make much of a difference.

I'm with xmetal here, the badges take up WAY too much space and are extremely distracting, I don't like them at all. They aren't even necessary in my opinion and only boosts the spam-to-post ratio in some cases for people I won't name.

Not to mention they look gimicky and the bright colors don't suit the forum very well. Everything else looks great, but the badges ruin the whole look for me. Completely. :(

Edit: Forgot to mention, I used to have 3 or 4 posts fit on my screen at once, but with the new layout, I can only see one without scrolling. It could be a very clean and slick looking forum, but the gimmick features keep it from doing that. :-\

Check the top-left corner of your page, you should see a version number there.

There's a "New Message" at the top.
If that doesn't work for you, just simply click on any board ID, click "send private message", and from there you can go to your own inbox.

Hope that helps!

Ok thank you, I am still getting used to V2 but it is really cool, I think once I figure everything out I will like it more than V1. Also the badges are really cool.

You can switch to v1.5 or any of the other skins in your profile view at any time, guys, so if you have an issue with the layout, just switch back. This forum is designed to be more than an information database that dwindles into nothing after a while. We're a community, and that is why I've implemented the community features such as badges.

I decided to go with a public v2 beta and do incremental changes over time, like we did with v1, rather than one giant release date. I feel it serves the community better that way.

Any way we could hide/show the badges likes the notification bar at the top? I'm not completely against them as a feature, but I don't like having them in my face all the time. Space optimization is extremely important for comfort on smaller displays.

Effectively boosting your likeliness to spam in order to get them... Yay? ::)

I have basically given up on forcing myself to get these badges. ^_^ I'll just have to rely on my natural posting habits to do the "badge talking" for me.
But yeah. Glad to hear that everyone is on v2 now.

Same. There's really no point in getting them unless you really deserve them.

Same here.  As much as I love collecting playing cards, performing magic and being a part of this forum; I just have to much going on with work, school, family and friends.  I prefer to be out and about seeing and doing new things instead of being behind a computer screen all day trying to get badges.  I love the idea of the badges.  Just not gonna force myself to stay indoors and try to get them all.
