We have simplified and added directions on how to use the buttons that appear at the posting page control panel. When you cursor over a tool icon, instructions on how to use it appear.
We have also updated the emjois.
Helps members label the paragraph where they describe specific questions, problems, for which they are seeking for support. Good for long posts.
A logo to welcome newbies. We also have
*hi*
*welcome*
*bpdfamily*
These old favorites are now in the new Apple iphone emjoi style.
#2 is new. It is listed as the third most popular emoji on Facebook. It is for validating support or advice given to us.
Laugh out loud
New emoji and a "Starbuck's safe way" to curse (Starbucks blocks some sites because of profanity). If are using nonsense words (e.g., $hlt, svck), use this tool. The Starbucks and Panera Bread censors can't read these. It's good for the community overall to not post profanity as it has caused the site to be banned on local servers.
These have been around for a while - member favorites.
We added yellow flag to aid with "gray" thinking (not black and white). Lets think in terms of yellow and red flags, not just red flags.

marking member communications (either PM, mail) |
Added to punctuate when we are trying to direct a member away from what they are doing. This should be specially useful when members are not listening to advice from the group and we want to highlight the advice given.
