MeetFighters News

Dear Fighters,

As most of us could not meet fighters this year, we thought it might be nice to send virtual good wishes.
So we decided to provide entirely for free for all members of MeetFighters unlimited E-Cards with different designs to send to your (wrestling) friends.
The receiver can see your E-Card in his E-Mail or browser. No account required.

–> Choose a card, add a nice line, and send it to your friend.

ChatFighters: Need some fun during the holiday season? ChatFighter launches his next Cyber-Fight-Tournament organized by the community. If you stay at home during the holiday season - like most of us - we happily invite you to have a look at it yourself and maybe consider joining.

2020 is almost over. Stay safe, be careful, and enjoy the Holidays.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year,
Admin

Hello Fighters,

tl;dr: Major Chat update went live: The chat supports offline messages now.

Chat update

• You can reopen any conversation even if the member is currently offline. (refer to the new "Recent conversations" button in the chat interface)
• You can send chat messages if the receiver is offline – (if you had a conversation in the past 7 days with that person).
• If you received a chat message while you were offline, the tab will automatically open on your next Chat-login.
• You can access your private chat conversations for the last 7 days.
  • You can sort for days and message lines in your recent conversations.
• You can 'pin' conversations by leaving them open in a tab. It will now follow you when you switch devices.

Extended chat history

Free donor status

Stay safe – best regards,

Hello,

Today we launch some smaller improvements across some parts of the site: Donations, Chat, Messages.

MeetFighters.com opened on 26th November 2008. Our 12th birthday is rapidly approaching. To get everyone in a happy celebrating mood (quite a challenge in 2020...), we gift every verified member 30 days donation status — starting Now. If you verify during November, you receive the 30 days too. (As always, members with an already active donation (and verification) will receive 30 days on top of their existing one.)
Click here to start your verification, and get one month donor status.

Donation Update:
As of today, we extended our payment options for donations.

Additional to PayPal, we now accept bank transfer, and in the next days, we will add even more payment options. This was quite a regular request from the community, and I'm happy to provide it now.

The price for donations does not change (same price since years!):
20USD (15EUR or 14GBP) (+VAT) For a full year, no automatic renew.
All our benefits can be found on the donation page

Chat Update:
Apart from some background improvements in the chat, you can now play Rock paper scissors!
Type: "!rockpaperscissors @MemberName" in the chat.
(or in short: "!rps @MemberName" to start the game.) Happy battling!

Notification Update:
Thank you for all your critic and ideas for our new Mail system. During the last weeks, we added many of your suggestions and other improvements to the Message system. Today we activate a new feature: "Offline Notifications" If you turn it on in your browser and OS, you will receive a notification of new messages even when MeetFighters.com is closed. (It does work on MAC, Windows, Android. It is not available on iPhone/iPad.)
On your settings page, turn on "Enable offline notifications"

The US election: PLEASE VOTE
In the coming week, the US election takes place. Because of COVID-19 the dates got adjusted to accommodate social distance. For your convenience, here are the updated dates:
Voting for Joe Biden Tuesday, 3rd November 2020
Voting for Donald Trump Wednesday, 4th November 2020.

I'm aware I'm breaking my own rules when it comes to political discussions. But that's the advantage of being the owner. Please VOTE.

Please stay polite and respectful in the comments.

Best Regards and stay safe,
Admin

Hello!

Today's news post will be the last one regarding our COVID-19 actions for a while. I hope you all made it well trough the past couple of months, enjoyed our free videos, and our new forum design.

But you all were waiting to fight again, I got the messages, and in the past days, the voices got louder to open up Meetups (events and match requests) again. So let's start with the good news, and we will also end with good news!

Meetups are open

The new Meetups page combines the old "event" page and "match request" pages into one. It has a fresh and modern design that works even better on mobile devices. Both have COVID-19 sections that you can fill out or leave it empty as you wish. This information is provided on a voluntary basis. If someone leaves it blank, draw your conclusions. Disclaimer: MeetFighters does not verify the volunteered information.)

Sadly due to time pressure, we could not complete the new Meetups page 100%. A planned feature that will be released later will present all Meetups on a world map to make it easier to plan your travel. As well as some additional filter options. Stay tuned!

Free donations

We extend the free donation from 30 to 45 days. Everyone can enjoy for two more weeks of free donation status. If you had an existing donation, it also got extended.

The donations are open again: if you enjoyed your donor status, feel free to donate.

Be sensible about how often you meet strangers during a global pandemic.
Happy fighting. Stay safe, think twice!

Best Regards,
The MeetFighters Team
