Re: Roll call! Who are the ten die-hards at Play@?

Dave! Good to hear from you.
The site isn't going anywhere - it's all paid up for another year.

Suggestions for the new domain name can be made here:

Re: Roll call! Who are the ten die-hards at Play@?

We don't have to keep the .org.uk tld

playcthulhu is a pretty good name and playatyogsothoth (keeps in with the current branding). We could go with something more generic.
How about horrorbypost ?

Re: Roll call! Who are the ten die-hards at Play@?

How much does it cost? Hi, So, hosting the site and database, etc. is $180 per 12 months (actually it's $165 but I didn't see any renewal notices so there was a $15 late fee) - this is a 'grandfathered in' fee for shared hosting on Host Dime. I don't believe this rate/service level is available any...

Re: Roll call! Who are the ten die-hards at Play@?

I’d be happy to contribute to costs but I’m not sure I’d have the time/skills to manage the board. What’s involved in managing it, Lee? To be honest, I don't do anything (any more) - Mr Handy has done ALL the administrator/moderator work for YEARS and I take my hat off to him. This site does deserv...

Re: Roll call! Who are the ten die-hards at Play@?

I don't have time to participate any more.
I want to pass everything on to someone.
Just had to pay $180 to keep this going.

Re: The First Test!

I notices that things weren't always redirecting to https - so I have updated the htaccess to force https and also to force the 'www' part of the url. The dice not being visible if your not logged in is probably a permissions issue. Tabs and logging in maybe has something to do with the use of https...

Re: The First Test!

I think that the permissions we set to deal with accounts validated, etc. have been reset - I'll look into this. In the mean time - I've added modules to link registration to the 'stop forum span service', actioned captcha and also added the 'justification' field - anyone registering has to justify ...

Seems the issue was caused by the port being added in the url. Not sure how I managed to screw that up.

BB Codes

Re: The First Test!

So, DICE ROLLS have to be enabled on a case by case basis in Game Forums. This new roller works differently enough from the old one to make things a little awkward (new procedures) etc. and also introduces permissions to edit/remove rolls - I'll start adding dice rolls to game forums but setting may...

Re: The First Test!

Fantastic!
So, it's not possible to see the extra options (adding images and dice) in the 'quick reply' section - this may have been the issue?

Re: The First Test!

I'm being dense. I found the "dice tester" and I can make that work. However, I cannot find the image provided in the first post in this thread. The one that has "Options/Attachments/Poll creation/Dice Rolls" and everything else shown; the "roll notation" and "rol...

Re: The First Test!

One thing I noticed is that now we're restricted to only available sides (4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 20, and 100). Is there any way that restriction could be lifted? Sometimes I need to pick random numbers from nonstandard dice. 'Sides' (ie number of sides for the die) has to be added via the ACP - I don't k...
