In a rare show of unanimity around here, the 25 people who voted on the Code of Conduct all voted in the affirmative . Alas, that is also the lowest turnout of any of our surveys .
So, it's onwards and upwards as Wondercafe2 rumbles slowly to life.
Thanks to all who have been part of the discussions and polls leading up to it, and I look forward to seeing you all over there soon. Watch for more announcements coming up about when we will open registration (for those who did not participate in the pre-registration).

I imagine the low voter turnout - and the discussion lack around the Code of Conduct was largely due to WC2's CoC being so similar to WC's CoC - which we are all so very used to.
As one of the twenty five who voted in favor of the CoC - I'm glad to see it accepted.
Thank you to the Council and the community.
Beloved

With the last vote being completed, there will be a soft start in wondercafe2.
Individuals who have been pre-registered will be approved, and should receive notification over the next 48 hrs.

gecko - you actually got on to the new site? Wow - that's impressive. Lately all I've been getting is - Error 403 Forbidden
Admins - Have I been banned for life already?

Jae, the first couple of times I tried (a few days ago) the same thing happened.
I just received approval today to enter because I pre-registered.
May have to do with your computer being cautious or the email hasn't reached you yet.
Did you pre-register?

Yes - I preregistered - and got on once.
After that it has been 403 - 403 - 403...
Now if everyone was getting 403 - I mean - hey - no problem. As it is though - I smell stinky cheese.

You are being paranoid, Jae. Give your computer a smack!

Jae, if you read Pinga's post it sounds like they are manually approving the pre-registered accounts one by one. Once you get the approval notification you should be good to go!

For your information.
I have had tremendous difficulty getting onto WonderCafe2. I mean, for some reason my browser likes to tell me that the site simply doesn't exist and I should try doing something else.
I eventually was able to bookmark the site and have had no problem getting to it since.
Initially when I did get to it my login wouldn't work and it took some monkeying around between Chansen and myself before I could get into the site.
I'm not sure what your issue is. I'm pretty confident that if we were pre-banning you we'd have simply lost your pre-registration request.
Grace and peace to you.
John

Or perhaps it is simply his sense of humour that stinks and not any cheese.
Grace and peace to you.

I was typing in the address each time - and I was going to http://wondercafe2.ca
Update: aha - I believe I've found the answer - wondercafe2 doesn't seem to work on mobile. At least - not on my Windows Phone.
if that's correct - wondercafe2 has a major disadvantage over wondercafe :(

It has worked fine on all mobiles tried so far.
In fact, significantly better than on any other app.
Can you give specifics on your phone type. We have tried numerous, all to great success

Did you try it on a Windows Phone - or only on Android phones and iPhones? My mobile is an HTC 8S - and my browser is Internet Explorer. Thanks Pinga.

We can ask, but used it on various o/s
I recommend you contact your service provider
Ensure you are using www.wondercafe2.ca

Unless there is something specific you need IE for, try installing a different browser.

Thank you for the recommendations Pinga and chansen. Not even sure if I can get a different browser for free for my Windows Phone - and - to be honest about it - I don't want to use the memory space it would take. In a few months time I'll be getting an Android phone anyway.

Glad to see IE is working for you.
If you have to, uninstall Angry Birds and install...man, you don't have Firefox or Chrome available?!? Try Opera?

Neither do I. My understanding is that the last year or two has seen the OS become much better, but nobody bought in.

Interesting there that the apple numbers are declining - while the Microsoft numbers are increasing. Wonder how many years it will take Microsoft to eclipse apple - as it already has done Blackberry.
