Scheduled Server Move - Forums Going Offline

Post by Haplo »

Attention please:

We are going to move from the UK to the US so we can better manage our website and stuff like that. Because of that, the forums are going to be offline for the majority of the weekend, starting some time tomorrow. So please do not panic.

Also, we aren't going to be stupid like the ESF and take our forum down for like a week without giving a reason *glares at ZeniMax*

Thanks,
Haplo

I had an inexplicable urge to play a game with an experienced based leveling system. Since the creator of Morrowland removed his mod in shame* after seeing my review on the BGSF, I had to find fun elsewhere.

*true and sad story, he never responded to my plea to keep the thing around an accept the mod's proper role as the Rocky Horror Picture show of mods.

Edit: Also, I'm an admin for an elder scrolls mod. As far as things that don't seem to jive with adulthood I think I've got more problems than the occasional pokemon nostalgia bomb.

Holy mother of... I may actually never visit those forums again... Astounding.

Also good call TF. It's never too late for Poke nostalgia. Although I'm under the impression that some comically named admins were added for the Rockets in place of the old menacing 'Execs'.

Seeing as I haven't even got the egg from Mr. Pokemon yet, I can not confirm or deny that impression. (damnable work!)

Edit: New BGSF sucks, holy god

Giovanni was boss of Team Rocket in Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, but retired to train more after you kicked his ass up one side and down another in those games. His son thought he was a douche for doing that, so he decided to become that douche rival in Gold and Silver. The entire Team Rocket plot line in gold and silver is that the remnants of team rocket are trying to get Giovanni to come back to them. You prevent the return of the legendary buffet of manliness in a special event involving time travel, celebi, and a shrine in that one forest that you can see[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gP9Q60OX5c]here[/url]. I'm not sure if it will be accessible to non-emulating US consumers. The dialog isn't translated, but it should be somewhat self explanatory based on my summary. (also lol omg pokemon dialog, so deep!)

Remember when pokemon didn't time travel and all that jazz? I miss those simpler days...

nuESF doesn't look half bad. It would just need to be a whole lot wider, preferably dynamic width.

You know what's also popular? Enormous flying cities and ridable dragons. Maybe TR should invest in navigable ships and underwater cities.

We have successfully transferred servers and are now residing in the US, right outside San Fernando :-) The file uploading problem has been fixed (incorrect permissions were set on two folders), and the last of the files have been uploaded. Please report all errors, and thanks for not going berserk due to the lack of a website over the weekend.

I'd have to agree with Lady N. After using it for a while, it's not so bad. It was a bit of a shock at first though. :)

The blog seems to give me a pop-up of a debug console. If no one else can replicate the problem, I did save the .html file, if required.
