Yeah, I'm wondering what the "old logo" is that they speak of.

Mahz's Dev Journal

In regards to the new logo, I personally liked the old one better. A big R for Roleplayer Guild made good sense and was unique. I can't say what other people think, though.

@BBeast

As a Graphic Designer, I can say the Guild's old logo stuck better. We'd already had it long enough--Changing it at this point, and for a completely different look nonetheless, seems like an unwise move.

There, my two cents as a professional ;)

@Frettzo

What logo are yall talking about?

I've made some logos for the guild years ago when I was just a wee lad, but they're gone and lost. And quite shit, to be honest. So yall prob aren't talking about those.

Before redpanda made an image for us today, all we had was some cold grey text that said Roleplayer Guild at the top of the site. That the "logo" on yall's minds?

@Hank Thanks. I'll fix it up when I do a pass through with my phone.

It's definitely mobile-hostile until I do a few basic things.

Guess who's back??

@Partisan Thanks for spelling it out. It helps me to hear grueling pain-points since it's the only taste I get.

As Ellri said, earlier in this thread I proposed an idea for implementing a special post shared between GMs/co-GMs as the "0th" post for each tab with its own revision history.

In the meantime, I might be able to think of a quick hack that at least frees you from round-tripping through the PM system. Might be most sensible to hack a revision system onto the post system at large (for all users) and the let GMs toggle on a "co-GMs can edit my OPs" switch.

@SgtEasy It's the standard abbreviation: merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mos though I wish they went with something else.

Just an effort to shrink the length of timestamps so I can use them in more cramped spaces.

@SpiritedDream Hmm, let me know if you experience this again. I didn't touch the code related to that system in a long time. It's possible that there's a bug where it sometimes takes you to the first page. If you think there is (if it happens again), then I'll investigate the code.

Arena Update

As per @Rilla's request, I threw together a quick mini-leaderboard at top of the Arena forums to display the current ranked standings.



TODO: Make a sticky that explains what the ranked system actually is, how it works, and link to it.

Hiya~

Wow wait hu? Guild fall? Cause I do remember being a part of a forum like this. Did something happen while I was away?

@Sekai

Since your account is ~550 days old, you apparently re-registered in the new system the first day it launched (Jan 2014) and then never came back til now.

Welcome back.

Chat updates

1. /me support

Example: /me said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

2. @Mention support

- Mentioning someone in chat will now highlight the message on their screen:



- If they have chat open in another tab, then the tab will display their unread mention count and blink:



- Finally, to make mentioning more convenient, you can easily add mentions to the message you're typing by clicking anyone's username (from the sidebar or from within the chatbox itself)

Lemme know if you have issues. For example, sometimes the unread mention count in the tab title did not change after I focused the tab. Not sure if I fixed it or not.

A Giddy Hello

>I prefer to use the biggest knife in the kitchen when cooking. It just feels right.

Same, though I use the largest knife that's not dirty and work my way around the knife block til I run out. Eventually all I've left is the apple-peeling knife, usually when I need to cut a tough steak or a stale baguette or a corpse. At that point I know it's time to wash my knives.
