The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Just on the slim chance that Starfall doesn't find these updates would someone like me to PM him to let him know whats going on?
I've tried. Many times before. It doesn't seem to work for me.  :unsure:

Maybe, he could be taking a break from the forum, or may not have noticed he has a pm.  The emailing idea sounds good.

Well, it's not that I've been away from the forums, but I didn't get any PM's.
Oh, and in the RP itself, I posted my way of fixing the issue.

No need for you to leave, just talk over things with the GM and Co-Gm and then once things are smoothed over you can dive back into the rp and go back to having fun.  mistakes do happen.

Starfall Gustav and I don't want you to leave the RP. It's ok that you accidentally forgot to post the bio of the character. It happens!

I am. And I'm doing what I can.

Don't think I don't know that! <_<

What I am waiting for is for me to discuss some things with Starfall over PM, which doesn't work for some strange reason.
You guys are NOT making it easier by posting in the RP!
So if we could hold our horses until then, I would be grateful.
LBTfan13 is helping me, so hopefuly we should fix this asap.

If you can't directly pm Starfall for some reason, can Lbtfan13?  If he can maybe the 2 of you can talk through him.   If not it may have to be done by email and maybe an admin told about the pm problem, seems someone can't get a pm.  It may be a bug somewhere they should be told about.

We're doing so.

Good, I'm sure things will be quickly worked out and you can all get back to having fun with the misunderstandings behind all of you.  :)

Attention all RPers!

We are going to work towards starting back up the RP as soon as possible! After talking it over with Gustav, he's going to try and send me a message and then I will forward it to Starfall.

If that fails to work, then we will figure something else out. Meanwhile, we will let you guys know when the RP is starting back up. We hope for it to be soon because we really want to continue with this :D

Ateeeention!

Here's a useful hint for all of us, that might come in handy:

According to our devine admins, a full PM inbox won't let you recieve and more PMs! Which would explain alot, IF that's the issue behind it.
Now, I encourage all to watch their PM inbox, and make sure it isn't full.
If it is, you might want to delete some old stuff to get the fresh news.


Best wishes,

Gustav

Okay.
It would seem that this whole thing can be compared to walking around in Sahara with a limping dromedary and an empty water pocket-flask! :slap
Wherever you go, the road's leading no further and the issue still stands.

I'm not going any further with this.
The RP will continue, and for those who feel that something's still unclear should contact me or LBTfan13 if so.

I'm sorry for making this such a big fuzz.

Up to the first who posts to start it up again...

Good idea. We can figure everything out while we continue the RP
