Server Description
Could it be made that the server description can be changed in server options?

This would be a useful addition.

That doesn't matter, the fact is that it could happen, not that it can be fixed.

pfft, the Manager can get an option on their account that allows that account to change it o.O This can alos work so that if an account without that varible on the account tries to edit the Managers account, the server logs it and/or disconects them.

If the server gets truly hacked, a malicious server description is the least of your worries.


So yes, I'm all for it.

Sounds good.
Mind you not many of the server descriptions online currently are very good.
Not many fit the server.

Its a good idea, same for Website. But Like AlexH said, they problly have to go through Stefan/Unix, so that Stefan/Unix can see if it fits with the PW and website goes to a resonable one not putting a bad name on graal.
