New writer hired (and discussed rules with her so mistakes happen less often)
Hired community member Northern (on discord) to write 4 tutorials per month
Discussed future of LEB and LET and my commitment to making our community better with @trewq at length and discussed specific ideas we could implement. Started the same conversation with the balance of the moderation team.
Fixed the LET help desk (which we'll officially start using shortly, pending convo with the mods)
Got on Discord so I am readily available to anyone who needs me
Updated and cleaned up the LEB help desk
Removed all references to Deluxe and ColoCrossing
Removed all static banner ads
Reduced the amount of ad positions available through BSA to increase the value to our advertisers
Shuffled some content positioning to make LEB and LET a little cleaner
Updated some of the old LEB content pages to make things more consistent and uniform.
Answered a whole lot of questions on LET and Discord
Posted this thread on LET and a thread on LEB asking for feedback
Gained access to all social platforms and posted on Facebook for the first time
So.. there are plenty of things happening folks
More to come very soon too.
I am going to be making a new condensed thread to clean up the announcement section so this one is no longer going to be set to pinned.
