URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT: You MUST change your e-mails to valid ones within 2 weeks.
enwiabe:
A great many of you don't have valid e-mails in your account info for various reasons. That would ordinarily be fine, but in two weeks time, VN will be undergoing a massive change (more on this later, details still being worked out), and due to kinks in SMF's programming you will soon be required to log-in via your e-mails. This change may also result in all of your passwords being reset by the SMF software and being e-mailed to your e-mail accounts. So for your own good, change your VN e-mail to an e-mail you remember and can log-in to. It doesn't have to be your main e-mail, hell if you really don't trust me at all just make a new one specifically for this, but it is in your best interests to have a valid e-mail as that listed in your profile, otherwise you will not be able to log in to the site very soon.
NOTE: You can hide your e-mail from public view by: 1) Clicking on your profile -> 2) Clicking on "Account Related Settings", and 3) Clicking the "Hide your e-mail?" checkbox.
NOTE 2: This is the most annoying FAQ I get asked. IF YOU GO AND CHECK IF YOUR E-MAIL IS HIDDEN IN YOUR PROFILE IT WILL STILL SHOW UP TO YOU. That is because you should obviously always be able to see your own e-mail, but it WON'T be visible to anyone else if you have that checkbox ticked.

perhaps put this under news where the facebook link is so everyone can see it?
or
maybe send out a pm to all members so as soon as they log in it will pop up and they will be warned.

I'm assuming all the threads will be kept...intact...otherwise I have some serious downloading of exams to do :P

Good idea about news section and I'm currently trying to figure out how to mass PM people. Manually adding 23k names to a list isn't going to work and I don't think SMF has an in-built mass PM function :(
