OK let's see what's been going on -

1. Installed vBulletin to replace old forums do to vulnerabilities and broken items in old forums.
2. Migrated the members and posts from the old forums to the new.
2a. Migraged the ElementalBattlegrounds.com forums into a subforum of the Neverwinter Nights section.
3. Purchased and installed 2 styles to be evaluated as TrogWorld's themes.
4. Installed the vBadvanced portal system.

Things to do -

1. Install the arcade system.
2. Install some portal mods to make the homepage look better.
3. Install some other small mods to make the forums more cool.
4. Take suggestions on the site to see what it needs.

Important notes:

I am planning on going with the Alien Dreams style currently because it's easier to read + easier for me to put in custom forum stuff.

For anyone who was registered on TrogWorld before - and that should be everyone - please be sure to check your profile options and enable the things you want. Go here: http://www.trogworld.com/forums/usercp.php and select "Edit Options". Your private messaging may be turned off among other things.

So what are the benifits of VB over IPB?

If you're asking why I went to the trouble of changing the forum software, there were broken functions on the IPB site we just got away from. An obvious one that you may have noticed - when clicking on a member name to look at their profile all you got was a blank screen. I was fed up with using free software that didnt work correctly. I'm not a PHP scripter so I cant fix these things myself. This software is purchased, so if something doesnt work I can actually put in a support call for it to be fixed.

You would think JYAP would have made it here by now. Oh well.


OMFG LYK WTF

In memory of JYAP

Wait...how could that be? JYAP isn't dead! ...is he? No, he's not. Then why isn't he replying? There, got it off my chest.

Q:How come JYAP isn't making/replying to posts?

Almuric
12-30-2005, 01:42 PM
Because

#1 He forgot his password.
#2 He didnt put a real email address into his profile so the forums cant email him his password.
#3 He hasnt re-registered with a real email address (accounts wont turn on until you verify email).

Ah, I see. So, is there any other way to contact him? He hasn't been playing NWN online for quite a long time.

Almuric

I asked the same question. Hopefully someone will or he'll read this and put in some valid info.

OK, so the site is almost finished...waiting on Darakian to get our group tags done.

Then the big question is: what do we need?

Darakian
