It's been a while since my last update on the status of Athens101. For the last few months I have been rather busy with two other projects. One of them has exploded in popularity and eats up most of my time. Athens101 was placed on the back burner but I have managed a few updates.

1.) Changed the advanced text editor from TintMCE > FCKEditor
2.) Added a site wide contact forum
3.) Updated the forums so they function like other BBS systems.

There will be other additions / upgrades in the near future.
