by Dravin on June 11, 2009, 01:29:00 PMI've been doing some tinkering today with some a number of updates and upgrades for the site. Newer versions of both SMF and TinyPortal, along with updates to the Gallery, Links and such. Profile button is fixed.
Note: The chat program has been removed, temporarily (if not longer) due to integration issues. 37 Views | Rating: (0 rates)

"Star Wars: The Old Republic, currently in development by BioWare, is an upcoming massively multiplayer online roleplaying game (MMORPG) based in the Star Wars universe. It was announced on October 21, 2008, at an invitation-only press event. The Old Republic will be released for the the PC. Console versions are under consideration
The story will take place shortly after the establishment of a tenuous peace between the re-emergent Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, 300 years after the events of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic games and 3,500 years before the events in the Star Wars films. The Jedi, held responsible for the Sith's success, are forced to relocate from Coruscant to Tython.The game begins as new conflicts begin.The game will provide more context for characters' missions and quests than other MMORPGs offer.
Members of the two main factions, the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire, will have different moralities; a project's key focuses is to differentiate between player's faction and morality. Each faction will contain different classes, each with a distinct backstory and a branching storyline affected by players' moral choices. These choices will permanently open or close storylines and affect players' non-player character (NPC) companions. Players will be able to choose from a variety of NPCs, although spending time with a single companion will help more in developing story and content than dividing time among several. It is possible for players to "blow it big time" if they fail to meet NPCs' expectation. Although each class will have a distinct storyline, they will be integrated with the game's overall arc. Players will also have access to dozens of planets." - Blurb taken from here.

by Dravin on October 01, 2008, 09:33:34 PMWhile the title of this post would be more funny, if there were small cans of Spam attacking each other, this post is basically to address the recent forum "attacks". I was alerted this morning to the initial attack, took some to delete the posts, and of course ban the users. This evening when I got home, I was sadly alerted to a second attack. This has brought about the follow actions:
1. There is now a updated verification image when registering.
2. All new members will need to be approved by an Admin before joining/posting on the site.
While the second action is not a fix, and by no means do I want to have to approve every single member, at the moment, its what I've done to preserve our forums.
Please refrain from posting in response to the spam posts, its just another post and more work for me to do. And on a closing note, why did each of those posts have 5+ reads? Bad Bad.
Anyhow, I apologize for the pain, and hopefully things will roll on smoother. 36 Views | Rating: (0 rates)
