Good call on the border. The "welcome to /tg/etc" is only there until someone gives me a logo or something to put there.

I made the vector image of the banner on top of ss13.eu for erro when he asked for a new logo in December.

If he does indeed want to fully separate from ss13 like he said I'll give you the .ai file for you to do what you want with it. Or you could just swipe it from his site if you look for it, it should still be there.

Also, I posted my Ideas in Rocks Talk page on the new wiki.

EDIT: Erro said he is reducing the forum to mainly a facilitator for the videogame group, so I have no problem with giving it to you.

This. By what process were the forum mods selected even?

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 4:56 am**

I want to suggest to not have shit on multiple domains.

One email is from www.tgstation13.org, the next is from www.coderbus.com.

Pick one and stick with it.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 8:08 am**

Add a byond key profile field that appears on posts and such.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 11:19 am**

A hugsystem like the old forums had would be great, replacing hugs with honks would be even better.

Wheres the policy discussion in the admin section?

A draft is being written up with input from everyone in charge. Discussion can happen after the draft is out.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 6:03 pm**

I believe he means the section where players can discuss in-game policy, like on the old forums before it got renamed to Ask an Admin.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 6:19 pm**

Well you sort of added a border on the main content, but it doesn't have a color assigned so you can't see it. Also a 6px border is insane, whats wrong with 1/2px?

Should probably fix that.

Just throwing this out there again. One domain.

Every email links to a different website, either tgstation13.org, www.tgstation13.org or www.coderbus.com.

Why do we need so many mods?

Can we keep this emoticon?

I want this one in particular for reasons.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 8:16 pm**

I think they want to keep the shitposting as low as possible unlike the old forums.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 8:19 pm**

Similes are now limted to 5 a post.

sigs have been fucked with to allow for more content, but images cant be too tall to prevent annoyingness

new theme installed, consider changing to it. tell me what you think and if its liked I'll make it default.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 8:27 pm**

I appreciate the new theme more than prosilver 2.

Pretty. Although there's this green thing to the right of everyone's name now though and I can't tell if a person is online or not.
E: Apparently the green thing is the online now symbol, for some raisin when I first switched to it everyone had it on. I guess everyone ITT was online. Some avatars overlap the symbol though.

geilebeer wrote:I think they want to keep the shitposting as low as possible unlike the old forums.

Shitposting is subjective. Getting ten or more people to agree to what is a shitpost and what isn't is just gonna create drama. Also wasn't one of the things that lead to this being Erro trying to remove shitposting

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 8:51 pm**

Re-add the Roleplaying subforum.

The world must still know how the story of our snowflakes unfolds.

Posted: **Sat Apr 19, 2014 9:02 pm**

You are right Weeyakk, we will have to wait for a clear statement about why there are so many mods wanted.
And I think erro's decision to cut down on shitposts wasn't a main reason for the whole ordeal.

Posted: **Sun Apr 20, 2014 1:15 am**

A policy section for the posting and discussion of policies?
I mean a centralized place for all policy, specifically regarding forums, coding, and in game rulings. I think it should be a central subforum.
In these, official policy would be placed in a locked sticky (updated as things change), and people can make threads limited to a specific policy should they want to talk about it.

Unless I don't have access to them, I'm not even sure if there are hidden forums.

[youtube] tags so I can use off topic like my personal music blog please.

Posted: **Sun Apr 20, 2014 7:21 pm**

Seriously: some kind of announcement that this is the official forum, if this is the official forum. Most people seem to be using the old forum as the official one still.

Posted: **Sun Apr 20, 2014 7:23 pm**

I can't see the numbers but the old forums attendance seems to have dropped already.

Posted: **Sun Apr 20, 2014 11:00 pm**

Please move site homepage and wiki to the right or above the head image of the page very easy to go to home page by accident atm.

There's already a message like that on tgstation13.org. I'd also expect a faster turnover whenever Errorage shuts off the game.ss13.eu links, which he has announced plans to do. I'd also imagine he'll remove the ss13 and /tg/station related parts of his forum and rebrand it, which will of course finish things up.

Saw the message, thing about it is:

a) Google still lists the old forum at the top, probably not much that can immediately done about that but it's a thing
b) The message says this is the "codebase forums" and the average new player might not connect that these are the official game forums (especially given that most of the old forum stuff insists on calling this the "coderbus forum," and said average new player isn't going to think that is anything relevant. These aren't straw men, there are lots of newbies asking essentially WTF is going on, plus a lot of old/frequent players who haven't made the switch.
c) I highly doubt this "rebranding" is going to happen in any kind of quick or orderly fashion, given the general lack of planning/forethought shown throughout this entire fiasco (note: not dissing anybody here).

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 6:11 am**

1. Google will list the old site at the top for quite some time, until the spiders start crawling this site and notice more relevant activity.

2. Not much we can do there, we're lucky erro even uncensored the domain and linked here.

3. No comment.

I'm trying to post an image linked from my dropbox, but it's giving me the error

Your images may only be up to 250 pixels high.

Which is ridiculously low. I need to be able to give feedback and concepts with maps.

Can we also get rid of minimum character requirements? I think we're a developed enough community to not have to resort to arbitrary restrictions on posts.

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 6:05 pm**

It would help FNR and Ban Requests, since detailed logs can be very long, and quoting select parts often makes admins suspicious that you are hiding something (surprisingly often - rightfully so). This means that we're usually required to use some sort of online clipboard, or hope that admins pull the server logs.

But, otherwise, do we really type up posts that go over the current character limit that often? I mean, 60,000 characters is a lot. My essay on Hitler's life, which I may not resist posting if the character limit is lifted or raised, is 95,000 characters long, and it's HUGE - takes over an hour to read it aloud.

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 6:08 pm**

If you're running into the post limit with 60,000 characters, you really need to trim your post. Pastebin works fine for logs, doubly so because it makes quoting your post easier - You don't have to dig through spoilertagged longform logs.

What I'd like to see is strikeout BBCode tags ( and ), as well as support for thumbnailed image ([timg])

Not sure if you understand the word "minimum"

Misread that post. Yeah, now thinking of it, 5 characters may be a bit too much.

But, at least BBCode lets you bypass the character limit when you really need your reply to be short.

Some people think responding by quoting someone else is an acceptable post. Those people are wrong.

There doesn't seem to be a RP or IC section as there was in the past forums?

I know its not an often used section as some of the others, but some nice things did come out of it and it did wonders for immersion etc.

Sawrge you know that isn't the reason and you posting your assumption here is not doing anyone any favors. If you really cared you would have PM'd me on IRC. Don't be a stooge.
