Upcoming Site Downtime

- No friends list
- Number of profile views gone
- Staff list gone
- Staffers currently online needs to be fixed
- In profiles - Number of threads created is gone
- Also fix the site layout, sections are listed. Try to make the forum front page smaller.
 
Well...the RPG World Map certainly looks weird. There's lots of duplicate icons on the right panel, and the world itself is different. (Continents were altered).
 
Yes, it appears we have a bunch of dupes. Probably the best thing to do is restore from backup.

LG, I will give you a copy of the correct world map picture tomorrow. Right now, I am going to bed.
 
I'll add missing plugins over the next couple days. RPG problems are being looked into.

Don't know when this will be readded. Before I reinstall the plugin I want to make sure it won't delete existing lists.

Will look into this.
 
I like how on top of things you are Golbez. It is appreciated, and very professional and kind of you.

Now if only we could get you to post a little bit more on the other topics. :)

The Moderators and RPG Directors are presented in one single list as well as being shown in their individual lists (as I suspected earlier, it might be because the RPG Directors are also moderators of the RPG forums, yes?). The Site Owner and Administrator fields are currently functioning similarly.

Also, the "Users Currently Online" used to separate the staff from the users, e.g.

"Staff: Lord Golbez, Decado, Cerridwen ... etc

Members: Riku, Pooley, Bambi ... etc"

Similarly, the "Members Active Today" has been missing for some time, though I'm unsure if that was purposely removed.
 
I would think so. That particular hack really pulls a lot on the server, and it's unnecessary in truth. :) Must we really know who was on five hours ago?

Then again, that's simply my thoughts on it. Not my place to say.
 
Wow...you guys really complain...A LOT. Is nothing ever going to satisfy you?
 
Well, not every tiny little thing is always going to be to your satisfaction >.< There's going to be changes that people are going to like or aren't going to like. Things like this are just going to happen.

You've got Scrib saying the hack that a lot of people want isn't necessary when we're trying to do everything we can to make this forum enjoyable, and yet you still have people complaining stuff isn't needed. We get it, maybe you don't like it, but a lot of others do. It's just tiring and puts a little strain on us, that's all.

It's actually a really useful hack. It lets us keep track on who's been online that day, and depending on how often you make it online, if you keep track of it, it lets us know how active the person's been and how often they visit the forum. To you it may seem worthless, but it lets us keep track of all the members such as say we PM a certain member about their posts or their account, it lets us know if that person has been online that day to read the PM or not.
 
I'll third that motion - it's an insanely useful hack, plus it doesnt have that much impact on a server because it's only one query.

If it does become an issue, though, i'd look into getting zero to making a cached version to kill load :)
