RAGBRAI Forums users,
We’d like to inform you of an upcoming change.
RAGBRAI is continually trying to improve the user experience on our website. With this in mind, on Thursday October 29, 2009 we will be transitioning to new forums system. Among other nice features, the new system will integrate better with the rest of the RAGBRAI site, has a cleaner design and better SPAM protection features.
Unfortunately, none of the user accounts or conversations on the current RAGBRAI forums can be migrated to the new system. You’ll need to recreate your account on the new system. You may already have an account that will work with the forums. If you uploaded photos on the RAGBRAI site during the last RAGBRAI ride, you were required to create an account. You can use that same account with the new forums system.
If you didn’t upload photos, a user account can be created anytime before we launch the forums. Just go to RAGBRAI.com and look for the register link in the right rail of the site. Click the link and fill in the fields. An email will be sent to you with your password. Once you login, you can change your password by clicking on the profile link.
Usernames are on a first come, first served basis, so if you’d like the same username that you are using on the current forums, hurry over to RAGBRAI.com to reserve it now.
We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause you, but are certain that, in the long run, you’ll be happy with the improved experience with RAGBRAI.com
Update: After October 29, 2009 these forums will switch to read only access. You'll be able to view all of the current conversations, but you won't be able to add additional posts. |
