Happy Anniversary CAA! Here's a present!

Dear CAA,
Today marks the 10 year anniversary of Christian Anime Alliance! Happy anniversary, everybody! We're throwing you a party today, and it's my great pleasure to be the one to hand out the presents.
First off, everyone has probably already noticed that the board is sporting some swank new graphics. Thanks to Mech, Goldy, Kitchen and Link for that! These guys have been working over the last few months to come up with something great - and it certainly shows. Kudos to them!
Second, you probably remember the Vic Chat Q&A thread from a while back. What you may not have known, was that this was another of our planned presents for you guys. Expect to see the edited audio up soon! EDIT: Here it is! http://www.christiananime.net/showthread.php?t=59579
Third, if you haven't already checked it out, I would encourage you to take a look at the new reviews system. Over the last 5 years I've received a ton of comments and suggestions about how to make that better - and I've taken all that to heart. We're launching a brand new reviews system - completely recoded and designed to serve as an outreach tool. It's become clear that there simply are not enough hours in the mod staffs' lives to be able to keep up with all the reviews people have been submitting. In addition, we've received countless requests to get more, quality data up as soon as possible. The new system allows us to crowd-source the ratings and reviews, while still allowing us to maintain a high quality standard. We think you're gonna love it! You can still reach the old reviews system here: https://www.christiananime.net/reviews.php
Fourth, many of you have noticed some bugs cropping up on the board recently. We've patched a good number and will be working on some more in the up coming months. (As an example, you may have noticed the calendar is now working again!)
Finally, there are a lot of stale files kicking around the board - like that "parents" section and the "home" area. We're going to be upgrading these over the next few weeks, so look forward to some new, up to date copy!
I just can't believe it's been 10 years already... Time just flies past when you love what you do - and I certainly do love hanging out with you guys. Please join me and the mods as we pray for the board - that God's will presence will be felt and his love poured out on all who visit our little neck of the woods.
See you around!

Thanks to all the hard work you guys have put into this site for the past 10 years. It's great so far, and I'm sure it'll get even better in the years to come!
