As of this weekend, we have moved all the friending amongst all GLRF members to the main All Oars Network. For those looking for their friend feature on All Oars Groups, it has been disabled as we begin the process of merging the 'groups' with the All Oars Network.

Huh? To you it may seem like All Oars Groups is just another rower in the boat but actually All Oars Groups, in its current configuration, is an external component that is layered in to the All Oars Network, albeit less than gracefully.

Up until this weekend, there were two ways to friend someone on the internal social network, first called Network Now! and now called All Oars Network. The first way was to friend someone on Network Now! and the second way was to friend someone on the All Oars Forums. Now there is one way to friend someone: from the main member profiles of the All Oars Network. Confused? Just click on the navigation tab that says Members, click on a profile name, and you can see their friends, and also friend that person.

Similarly, we had two messaging systems in place that caused confusion. Now there is one messaging system: from the All Oars Groups, click on the link that says Send a Message to a GLRF Member or just click on Members and select Messenger Inbox.

We hope you'll like the greater simplicity and the added features that come with friending and messaging on the All Oars Network.
