Forum updates

[hobbes_182]

I'll be posting updates for the forum here. Feel free to comment on any questions or suggestions.

UPDATE 07/02/2022 - IRC has been completely removed from the menu as the most recent update for the embedded web chat does not work with our current php version. You can find instructions on how to connect to the chat here.

IRC CHAT & STREAM ARCHIVE LINKS MOVED

I have moved the links for the IRC Chat web client & Stream Archive. You can find both of them on the QUICK LINKS (top left on the menu bar), and you can also find them on the bottom right footer.

I moved them as the top menu bar was starting to get a bit cluttered.

Hopefully this makes navigation easier.

I started creating categories for the forum avatars.

So all new users get a default Zombie avatar, but the avatar gallery now has categories based off of some of my favorite games.

Remember, all you have to do is go to USER CONTROL PANEL / PROFILE (TAB) / EDIT AVATAR / AVATAR TYPE / GALLERY AVATAR

Once there, select your favorite category from the dropdown and click on GO.

Here's Volume 1:

BIOHAZARD


DARKSTALKERS


MARVEL VS CAPCOM Popular among forum users


MARVEL VS STREET FIGHTER


ALIEN VS PREDATOR


STREET FIGHTER 3


STREET FIGHTER ALPHA


SUPER GEM FIGHTER


I am naming everything so BIOHAZARD can be on the top of the list, that's why I named ALIEN VS PREDATOR as PREDATOR.

I have added a link to the Outbreak Server section of the forum.

It is located on the top menu bar, after the Twitch link. As usual, you can also navigate to that section by scrolling down on the Board Index.

Hopefully this can help new users find information on our Outbreak Server easier.

Here's something that took a while.

So although GOBLIN6 is a one man operation, my man digitalgeth has always helped out when it comes to anything tech related. Dude was instrumental in helping test our Outbreak Server, he also got screenshots of the Resident Evil Village Maiden demo (I ain't getting a PlayStation 5 anytime soon ).

Therefore, I strong-armed him into making a forum account so I can officially make him GOBLIN6 Staff.

I also make him stream with me:



Feel free to PM him some pervy links in his inbox.

Thanks geth!

Persona 3 avatars were added to the avatar gallery.

So, there is an ongoing theme with the avatars. They are from a few of my favorite games, enjoy.

For RPG games like this one, I am only doing the main cast, no NPCs.

The Persona 3 avatars are 60 images in total. I took one image from each of the main cast's outfits.

We added flags to the forum.

Users can choose their flag by going to control panel / profile / edit profile

The option is all the way at the bottom. And, your flag will appear beneath the contact section on your posts and replies.

For now, all current users of the forum were given the specific flag they requested. All new users will need to set it when they register.

I thought it would be a nice touch to the forum. It will be interesting to see where users are from.

There is also the option to display flags on thread topics. I turned this off for now, but if users want it I can activate it.

Fly your colors baby!

EDIT 09/23/2021 - I received a few PMs where users requested their flags not be shown. As I cannot turn off this option individually I have removed flags from users profiles. If flags become highly requested in the future, we can set up a vote to bring them back.
