If you've noticed that I haven't been blogging as much and my activity with the site has been a little slower lately... it's because I've been doing a lot of updating behind the scenes that will hopefully serve everyone better in the long run.  As you can probably tell, I've updated the site. I wanted to post a quick update to key you in to some of the new features. The site now has:

• Enhanced profile
• A wall where users can post updates
• An internal messaging system
• The ability to friend/follow other users (there will be more updates to the friend section soon)
• A member directory
• Social Groups (you can create a group for any reason/purpose)
• Updated message board (making it easier to add hyperlinks now)
• And a new site design

I hope that you will enjoy these new updates and I hope they make it easier for everyone to communicate. I'm going to continue to update the site with enhancements in the weeks/months to come. This update has taken me a lot of time and because of that the competitions have suffered a little, but I'm about to get on them here shortly as well. If something is a little off or doesn't seem right to you, please send me an email so that I can look into your issues as they arise.

I tried to clean up the design of the site and make it less "busy" so that it's easier to focus on collaboration and information exchange. As part of the update we lost a few message board posts, comments, etc.  If one of your posts was lost I apologize and ask you to re-post.

Thanks again for your patience as I continue to work to serve SC outdoors better! Look for some more really great stuff coming in the future. We're not done yet.

Clint

We?ve received some feedback from various individuals here on the NC line and we are listening and adjusting!  We are changing the ?You must be from SC? rule to ?You must have a valid SC hunting license?.  Now all the NC hunters across the line can quit giving us a hard time!

Initially we decided to say that winners should reside in SC, but after hearing some other perspectives, it makes sense to change this rule.  As you may or may not know, Pageland is up here right on the NC line and we border-hop a lot?and so do some of our neighbors from NC.  We go there for the benefits of the city and they come down for the benefits of the country.  If you head north from Pageland you start to see less trees and begin to see more concrete as you near the sprawling greater Charlotte area.  There are many hunters who live in NC who come down south to hunt.  I imagine this may be the case for hunters from other states traveling to SC to hunt!  Now all the out-of-state hunters can compete in the competitions?just be prepared to show your SC license, should you win anything!

AND REMEMBER? PUT THE DATE IN THE PIC!

Clint
