https://StellarCommunity.org is a new forum based around all things Stellar! One of the main things that I wanted to improve was to create a forum that was nice and easy to use - so a good bit of time was spent making sure the UI was nice ?

Just some of the things I've worked on (with the help of people providing feedback in our "Site Feedback" category:

1⃣ Facebook and Twitter integration to make it easy to sign up
2⃣ A live chat box that allows members to quickly chat to each other
3⃣ A nice mobile experience, not just desktop focused
4⃣ Stellar price ticker on every page on desktop to make sure people know what the price is at the moment
5⃣ Moderation - spam isn't tolerated at all on the forum, which a lot of other forums are well known for
6⃣ Lightening fast servers (which lots of members commented on which was surprising to me ?)
7⃣ A tutorials section which is fairly new to help people learn about Stellar, all these posts are high quality and quite detailed
8⃣ No ads at all!
9⃣ The forum is quite active for something so new, hoping to keep the growth going!
? I better stop here because...there's no number 11 emoji ?

If you've any feedback or suggestions please let me know :thumbup:

Damn, the emoji's for numbers 1 to 9 don't seem to load here, or is it just on my side?

    jamie The emoji images are hosted by an external CDN and it looks like there is an issue. Some pictures return 403 Access denied. I'm looking into it.

      Some updates on this project:
      - Weekly digest email added so members can see what happened on a weekly basis on the forum
      - Tutorial category has more great posts to help out the Stellar community learn more about all things Stellar, including a post by Brian from the Stellar organisation.
      - Crazy stat of the day : nearly 100,000 page views on the forum already and around 10,000 emails sent to our members ?
      - Good news is lots of traffic is coming from Google now, meaning the forum is starting to rank for keywords.
      - Hosted the BlackWallet (great project by the way) giveaway at https://stellarcommunity.org/t/blackwallet-enhanced-account-viewer-giveaway

      There's almost too many features to mention on the forum, try it out to learn more about it ?
