Welcome to the new Rovers forum www.gaschat.co.ukTo help you adjust, here are a few pointers about some of the features. MORE SOCIAL This forum supports the @ feature. If you want to draw a users attention to something simply post the @ symbol next to their username and they will get a notification that alerts them to the post. E.g gregsyYou can also 'follow' posters and even set a 'Status update' on your profile if you wish. DESKTOP AND MOBILE COMPATABILITY This forum can handle both. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to selecg the mobile version. And use the bar at the bottom of the mobile version to select desktop to switch back. You can also hit back or top if you want to go back a page or scroll to the top. If you wish to scroll to the top if the page on the desktop version, simply click the hovering arrow on the right hand side of the screen NEWS BAR On top of the main page you will find a news bar and the location bar showing your pathway through the forum. You can click any of these markers to return to that point. The news bar will show the lastest forum news and Rovers news. NEW POSTS Threads with unread posts are shown by a blue button saying new. We are working on adjusting this currently. For now, clicking the 'NEW' button will take you to the latest unread post on that particular thread. YOUR RANKINGS Depending upon how active you are, you will rise through the ranks, gaining stars and respect. Your rank will show beside your avatar which you can change in your profile. The current ranks are Newbie Youth Team Reserve Team First Team Fan Favourite Club Legend and finally, Ricky Lambert.

I actually reviewed my own profile earlier to work out what the devil these 60+ posts were.... it's amazing how quickly they clock up with a couple of hours of time and a few cans of stella....

I know. Its only been up 4 days and already I've clocked up loads of posts. Still if it were about quality and not quantity then its not much to shout about. Cannot wait until the news starts rolling in and we can start getting excited about next season.
I hope that by getting the groundwork done now this will become the go to place when things start moving.
May I take this opportunity to welcome all new members and old ones. I am delighted to see you all and I hope you will find this a positive and constructive place to hang out.
A massive thank you to our moderating team who have been nothing short of incredible in helping us achieve so much so far. If you know or meet RD, MCC, WATG, FB or HTE, make sure you show them some appreciation for bringing our platform back from the dead.
Thank you everybody.

Every time I log on, a new feature has been added to make the forum even more user friendly! Must be loads of work going on behind the scenes to make this happen - huge "thank you" to all concerned.

ADDING YOUR OWN AVATAR
I'm sure a few have already figured it out themselves, but for those less tech savvy/lazy shits, here is a guide on how to change it (NB you can only change your profile picture on a PC/Mac - not using a mobile device): 1) Click the "Profile" link at the top of the page below the "Bristol Rovers Unofficial Forum" header 2) Once your profile has been brought up on page, click the "Edit Profile" button towards the top right hand corner of your profile 3) You are now presented with a number of options for changing your avatar. The most likely option you'll want is "Use only the Uploaded/Linked". Select this and then click the "Uploaded/Linked" text (it's a hyperlink) 4) A pop-up box will be displayed. Here you can either a) select an image to upload from your PC or b) input the URL (web address) of the image in question. 5) Once done, close the form using the "x" in the top right corner and then click the "Save Avatar Changes" button Done

I used to post on the 'official' club forum, then moved across to the Independent Forum. I'm not sure that the Rovers can really support two forums (or two supporters clubs come to that), but I'll look at both and see which one I like best in time. At least it shows that the fans do care about our club, despite several terrible seasons.

Can anyone tell me why the 'pick up where you left off" feature doesn't work on my laptop?
If I click on NEW against a thread it works on my iPhone but on my laptop I have to join every thread at post number 1 despite me being logged in.
Is it because I'm using a MacBook or is there on option somewhere that I've missed?
Any help would be appreciated.

May be that you have to enable cookies or temp files for gaschat ?
