Sections!
« on: May 27, 2008, 09:45:22 AM »
As you guys may have noticed, we've slowly been adding more sections into the forums, some to provide a category for posts of certain subjects that there have been lots of interest in (eg the roleplay section), others because it sounded like a fun idea (eg the character feedback).

Please feel free to post any idea for new areas for the forums here! Any new types of sections that you think would be useful, share em.

Private guild sections would be nice, and Order sections. :)

We avoided doing that too much right now, since Genesis is planning on making official forums - which I think he was going to merge with these? Elmak, able to shed any more light?

Well, the forums that were to be created I believe is another one of Avalon's infamous stagnated projects. Their designated webmaster has been supposedly working on them since September and I was working with him on the project and a possible merger. The new forums were to be based off existing code and integrated into Avalon's BB system. Unfortunately to say, I can roll something out and have it customized and integrated in two-three weeks tops. It's been a little over 8 months... I don't think they're going to happen any time soon if at all. (Seafaring right? ;))

I think we're in the clear to move ahead with Order/Guild/City forum sections. However, members need to be individually assigned to to their sections by one or more members of each section designated by the administrator (me!). Obvious people to control access to their forums would be the GM, Prince(ess!), a Barony person, High-Priest, your choice.

Well, Thakria forums are pretty established. I -might- consider moving Thief ones over (as time intensive as that would be) if I can't get the PHPbb code fixed (someone hacked it and it's been wonky ever since...MOSTLY fixed), but that would only be if these forums allow uploads, for our fighting log/map library. Even then, I doubt it, since we're a paranoid and suspicious bunch.

I dunno what other guilds and cities have setup. Last I checked, both the things I made for Parrius had kinda died out, same with the msngroup Grymauch and I did for Paladins.\

Bear in mind, Elmak would totally shamelessly spy on everything. He's a gossipy old lady, I swear. *flee*

Pfft! It's crazy-easy for me to restrict my own access so I can't go a-peeking!

Uploads are already supported all over the place, and you can upload up to a 5mb file... I can increase this if needed. Can also do as many files per post as you need... all at 5mb a piece... Just click the Additional Options bit on your post...

Pfft! I wouldn't! I'd actually like to see Guilds / Cities have structured boards and sections of their own beyond the meager in-game options.

Shifted old posts around, into various newer, more appropriate catagories for them. Enjoy.

Hey thanks for the Parrius group approval. Was disappointed to see not much there though. I was hoping the Enchanters could get a guild section if it's possible. Maybe with a couple of subsections for logs, tips and general. Thanks!

Also a thank you for confirming me in the Parrius section.   I posted.  Hopefully, more people will be asking for membership to it.

Yes, I'd like to formally request membership to both the Mercinaen and Parrian boards, I'm new to the forum yet and NEED as much access as possible.
