Title: New Adminship
Post by: Eternal on December 09, 2010, 07:53:54 am
Greetings, everyone. This is my first post as an admin, and I intend to make it brief.

Let's face it. Lately, FFH has been rather chaotic. I don't intend to add to the chaos by making this transition a huge deal. For the average user, you probably won't notice much of a change, if you notice a change at all. There are, however, a few minor differences which are listed below.

1) No more "God" word filter. This means that you'll no longer have to censor yourself.

2) No more Godkicking on IRC. This means you can come on IRC (chat) and not fear being kicked for saying "omg" or the like.

3) I'm cleaning up mods. Basically, there are a ton of mods right now and I'm adjusting their privileges and the like.

4) In regards to New Topics, I will not allow topics to be posted unless there are screenshots or a video of a proposed new patch. For those who want to still talk about their patch ideas, you're free to do so in the discussion thread. This is to prevent spamming up New Projects with projects that will/have made no progress.

These are the primary changes that'll be happening. There will be more over time undoubtedly, but for now, these are the biggest ones.

I know things have been chaotic lately, and many of you want to leave FFH because of it. However, if we're to rebuild from the ashes, we need dedicated members to stick around and help. If you cannot be constructive, and don't want to do anything on here other than spam, or berate others, I will be the first to say that you are not welcome.

With that said, I welcome everyone to FFH, where some of your dreams might come true sometimes!

Congratulations Eternal! One note though, point #4 should clarify that you mean the New Projects thread. You had me scared there when I though you meant the entire forum.

Is that a toaster? Can it talk? I love talking toasters. Not as much as I love cookies though, hence Eternal is administrator.

Congratulations on your appointment to Webmaster Xifanie!

Congratulations Eternal!

Please keep us poor peons posted on your changes, especially as far as moderators are concerned.  I need to know who I can spout off to with impunity!

Wait lemme get this straight, you come here to criticize eternals admin-ship? Are you really commenting? You have 3 posts, so don't come and tell eternal how to run  the site.

Perhaps if you were around a bit more, Apostle, you'd see that quite a bit is changing. Somebody get this man some Eye Drops, because I think he's blind.

An interesting mod would make thrown items do throw stone damage to their target in addition to the regular effects.

An interesting mod would consume the receiver's next turn to pull it out and drink. Except phoenix downs, because they don't seem to be contained by anything.
