CCP has announced that the revamped EVE Online forums have been redeployed for feedback and testing after a somewhat less-than-spectacular launch in April. On the initial launch, the forums experienced a rash of security issues. According to the latest EVE dev blog, those issues have been resolved and the forums are back up and running. Players are invited to test drive them and offer opinions and suggestions.

Our trusted Senior Security Administrator, CCP Sreegs, did a great job of explaining in his dev blog the extent to which the "new forum exploit" compromised security. In a following blog, CCP Rhayger walked readers through the reasons why we went with the YAF software solution as a base for our new EVE Online forums. The difficulties we had with our new forum system led to some soul-searching and prompted us to bring our internal and external processes under comprehensive scrutiny. We immediately set to work to fix the problem at hand and gulped down the helpful medicine of your feedback.

In this blog, I want to introduce you to some improvements we are rolling out with this rerelease of the new EVE forums that you can try out now on testforums.evegate.com.
