Der Wechsel zum 7er ist m.M. nach ein kompletter Egotrip, weil es letzte Jahr zum #RWC2023 nix gegeben hat
Und beim 7er nicht wirklich ne Rolle spielt, ausser das was u.a. von Rugby Pass gehypt wird

@jaz Hi jaz,

Spoiler | IntroJust stumbled over your post by chance, working on this server and it's forum pages.
We had to move to a new provider and VPS hosting setup and actually delayed that for the time being of the RWC to at least evolve this forum page as far as possible.
The old setup was a BETA testing for friendica servers that actually didn't worked out and the core funtionallity of friendica forums didn't work as expected.
It's still possible that we run into trouble over here, it's kinda adjusting and bug searching thing that comes with the tec itself, federation in particular, open source development and all that stuff. Point being is that if not already, we are now at least able to make this work as it should in terms of functinality.
I'll edit this very answer so you can see how for example "spoilers" look like over here and soon. If you browse this profile on our server you find that most RWC 2023 game reports are only half finished, and actually if time and inspiration shows up I might be able to finish them some day before the next #RWC, one alone can only achieve "so much" you know ..

This friendica forum has not only also the same ability as the mastodon a.gup.pe service, which btw we are following, it's actually a profile with lot's of extras that can moderate, schedule post reminders for important game events like 6 and 4 nations games or #VXW games, as you can see in this profile already.

While #RWC2023 was ongoing, the a.gup.pe functionality of resharing post's to followers didn't work but right now other profiles like the permaculture forum or the tutorial profile do work already like that so this rugby forum page should too.

As you will find in this profile page:
tupambae.org/profile/rugby

.. we have a sorted photo gallery for pictures published by this profile, own post's are sorted into categories like Finals or Quarter Finals and can be reorganized too.
There is a the chance to use a calender a media page (not sure what that's about actually) and public local and global community pages.

Spoiler | As this needs wo/menPower .. as an editor for some special occasion I might be able to cover that but in general I wont, so unless someone want's to take care of that, the basic offer is the a.gup.pe functionality of this #forumpage. I will set notification for my self about posts directed to this forum so if I become aware of some upcoming important international event or games I might schedule some post but I can't promise anything.
Another neat functionality is the ability to save post's from others into categories,I haven't digged into that. The upcoming #friendica release will add some kind of "channels" that people will be able to subscribe to created by a profile if I got that right, so staying tuned might become even more interesting.

This is the link to you very own post hosted over here, if you visit it you'll find how mastodon toot's are displayed over here and how our post's actually look like in our editing environment which is way more elaborated as the mastodon tooting, which is nice but more like a a telegraf microblogging for cell phones.

If people out there don't get direct response by this profile in case of questions for example you can than try to contact the mastodon profile @bitpickup or the profile @utopiarte over here directly.

ave fun and

"give blood - play #rugby !"
