Christian-pilipina will allow people of both sexes to post their own profiles and photos without me having to do that manually, as I have done on jaderune for the past 5+ years. The new site is searchable, whereas jaderune is not. And according to mystic, there is no way to add a search option to an HTML site, which jaderune is. As far as I know, christian-pilipina is not officially launched yet. It has no profiles, and the set up is far from complete. It may not actually be in operation for a few more months. All it has at this time is this forum. Plus the new site can have google ads that can help to offset the expense of running the 2 sites. Google cancelled the ads on jaderune over 2 years ago when I had someone fraudulently clicking on a multitude of ads in order to cause problems for the site. Longtime members may remember the people who were constantly causing problems. Plus, I need some way to make some money to run these sites because I am going to be on a fixed, limited income soon.
The host server for jaderune was always overloaded because of the forum. I have had many warnings from the hosting company about the problems that jaderune forum was creating for their server. Therefore, mystic suggested that we move the forum over to the new server for christian-pilipina which has much more disc space, and is lightening fast since it is 'cloud based'. Since the forum will now be based on the christian-pilipina server, the name was changed to match the name in the browser windows.
So the main change to jaderune is that the forum will link to Christian Pilipina Pen Pals. Everything else stays the same. Hopefully, the new site will reach a broader audience, and bring more people to join in the discussions on this forum. To me, that is a positive step.
Both sites will be free to everyone.

The new site is ready, and emails are being sent out to all forum members. Here is the email:
jaderune: new site launch at christian-pilipina.com
Hello,
The new dating website is going to be launched officially very soon. It is called Christian Pilipina, same as the forum, and can be reached at http://www.christian-pilipina.com. The new site will undergo a test period from December 20, 2013 to December 31, 2013. As a courtesy, every user of the forum was granted an account on Christian Pilipina.
You can log in with your current username and password jade1458_ (don't forget the underscore). During this time, and if you wish to keep your account on the new site, you just need to log in, change your password, upload your photos, and update your information details. The gender was automatically set to "male", since the forum does not contain this info. If you are a female, you need to change this.
If you do not want to keep your new account on the site, just do nothing. We will automatically clean up all inactive accounts when the new site will be officially launched on January 1, 2014.
I do hope that many of you will want to have a profile on the new site to help us get it started off right. You can tell your friends about it as well, and we look forward to your continuing participation in the forum as well as on the new site.
If you experience any issue, we are here to help.
Kindest regards,
Michael
