New Moderator Contact Page
https://www.bordeglobal.com/foruminv/index.php?act=contactmod
Members tend to bog down the Administrator with unnecessary questions that could FIRST be answered in the FAQ Board and then by a Moderator. If you have a question or concern about where to post then please contact a Mod instead of directly contacting Admin. This can be done via the Contact Mod Page.
NOTE: You may continue to contact Admin with regards to change of membership status and / or error messages (not to be confused with Watch Dog messages).
Profile Enhancement
Some users did not have the mistal font and it caused the Member's Profile name to appear extra large - this has been fixed.
A handy links bar (on some Skins this may appear at the bottom of the Profile rather than on top) has been added to give other infrequently used options more highlight.
Bare Bones Skin
After much consideration we felt it would be good to introduce a BARE BONES Skin that would take out ALL the links and features and just allow a user to get INTO discussions right away. This will cater for those who easily get confused as well as allow those who are here for discussion only and nothing more to get to the meat of the matter - the threads, posts, topics, etc. You can test this skin via the drop down Skin selector if you wish. The Bare Bones Skin is now the default Skin which means all new members will see this Skin First.
Awards Fix
I fixed a piece of code that was causing the 'Awards(x)' link to not show in posts. Now it should be available in all Skins save for Dial-up and Bare Bones. To learn more about this feature go here. You will see the link somewhere in your or another member's post either to the left under your avatar, under your signature or above your post depending on the Skin you are using.
All RPG Post Counts Restored
I am sure many of you will be glad to read this... all your RPG posts are now added to your culminative post count. This is in keeping with our new open policy making it easier for everyone to achieve in the Community. This also means that your activity rating can be increased by RPGs alone.
Anyone For Member Wars
The Member Wars Board has been opened up to allow anyone to post or reply you do not even need RPGer status.
No New Registrations
I am currently in transit or pretty close to it, so as a security measure no new users will be able to access the Community until I can get back and check on things. They will be able to register, but a message will follow saying that I have to validate their account.
Of course the Mods will keep an eye on current Members until then so make sure to be on your best behavior .
