    This has been the talk since last year and still, very little has been known about it (well at least for us, non mods).

    Im very curious about this. And also, remember the volunteer thingy that happened last year too? What happened to it? Does the result to it would also be revealed alongside with the new platform? AAAAAAAAAAAND WHEN WILL THIS NEW PLATFORM TAKE OVER?

    And for the other members, PLEASE DONATE <3

    The new platform has actually been in discussion for 4 years or more. :slight_smile: What's a little different here is, we have a test version of the platform up and running, and the staff are working with it. We still have some tweaks and changes that need to be made, and we don't have a specific timeframe, but it is hopefully getting pretty close.

    As for the expanded volunteer opportunities, this is something that is pretty high in our priority list. A lot of the expanded responsibilities we're kind of waiting until we have the new platform ready, because we don't want to do a lot of outreach and community building until we have a stronger staff of volunteers to handle the influx... and we also want to have the new platform in place.

    So... it's all coming, but it's largely dependent on the admin team's time. Since we're all volunteers, things can take quite a bit of time depending on our schedules. :slight_smile:
