THN Rage - not released, just available

As the cat is out of the bag, so to speak, better give a real heads-up.

You may have noticed a third style appear on the styles drop down, alongside Amber and Blue. This is called Rage, and if you've had a peer you'll have no idea why because it's all the same colour as Blue...

So, what's the deal?

Rage is under development as a technology demonstrator to show how this site could be reconfigured to, for example, make events more obvious. One of the key pieces of this, though, was causing global problems with events across the site so is disabled for the time being as I've not got a lot of time through March to look at it.

It is available to you because it was made available to Mods for testing purposes, but that means that everyone can see it (previously it was locked down to Admins only).

While Rage works, it should not be relied upon at all for the moment. It is in testing and I might, at any time, break it and leave it broken for days at a time. If you're using it and that happens to you, tough. You've now been warned.

That said, feel free to have a peer every now and then (and then switch back to either Amber or Blue).

I'm not taking requests just yet, nor has any work been done on making the style fit the name -- that will come after I'm happy with the technology.

I'll make another announcement when Rage is ready for open beta / release.
