Suspect users sent to review queue
Suspect users - those who have viewed less than one post and one topic but have customized their bio - are now sent to the review queue. Such users have a high likelihood of being spammers, as most users browse the site before taking time to fill out their bio.
Enable the approve suspect users setting to try it out!
Invite users from your contact list
Users can now be invited from the contact list when using Android.
Search both public and personal messages
Using the in:all flag, you can search both in both public topics as well as PMs.
