Welcome back Classic Graalians :D

Pretty neat.
Now i dont have to pay to use the forums :D

People are having trouble logging in still, their accounts are declined.

Woot!
:)

wooo so bugging you payed off, mr unixmad :D!

Enjoy moderating more posts

We are fixing the problems right now, should be working soon.

I am thinking some rules may need to be implemented regarding tags, and publicized messages in profiles and such

If it's abused for spamming, we will come back to the old system, so respect rules.

It will be worth it to have more people being able to access the forums. I am happy, for now >_<

Very nice. :) Glad to see you finally added the user groups after me and Spark mentioned it to you so long ago! Hehe.

So there are none right now? ;D

Cute. I know how the forum members need specifics. :\

All forum rules apply to every aspect of the forums

Classic accounts should work fine now, accounts with previous limited time subscriptions will be added later.

tTHEY DO! THANKS A BUNCH <3

k lol....^^

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

best upgrade youve done yet.

Perhaps now that the forums are free, you should open them up to reflect the game more. I realize that a lot of classic servers do have their own forums, but a lot of them are unreliable, or uncomfortable for a lot of people. I know it hasn't worked in the past, but to get more people in, maybe the sections should look a little something like the attached.

That's in my todo list and it's not that far from your list.

I will not use friend
 

To not make anyone unhappy i will not use friend list, stefan just told me he will do the same.

DOUBLE POST
ban't

anyways
i love the update.
especially how its free.
:D

That's cool, if it's a better organization than the current with tons of forums that aren't used and descriptions that match I'll be very impressed :D

Hey Unix, since when you log on, you're only known to view one thread, I'll post this here. How come Sam can use an animated avatar, but normal players can't? Is this some form of discrimination? Or is Sam merely abusing his Super Moderator rights? I for one am appalled by this, no matter which the reason is correct.

Being Super Moderator or Administrator give some privileges nothing new :)

I have still not decided if i will allow or not animated avatar.

Hella nice. I just expired so yeeeeeee.

Mods are allowed to break the rules they enforce? It clearly reads "You may not upload animated images", not "Only mods can upload animated images". Sam is breaking the rules, he's subject to ban.

If you have some questions about the moderation then they should be sent in a forum PM to Unixmad. They should NOT be posted in threads just because you feel like it.

Back to the topic of the forum upgrade please.

Yeah please do, and increase the size to 130x150. People love customizing, heck that's why the majority of people play Graal, so this would also be a big improvement.

just put the moving image in your sig, its not a big deal. but i do agree on the "sams breaking the rules" thing

I LOVE YOU

Erm...uhh...

Great update! :D

Please enable animated avatars!

Must say, good change, good change.

Awesome!!! :D Great job you guys! I'm so glad the forums are free now. This is exciting.

Change avatar size to 130x150 it's really not that big :mad:

Considering that the majority of graal has big computerscreens it is acceptable.
Must agree with Rufus.
In relation to the screensize the current avatarsize its just 1 dot :P.
Would also make the forums more lively...

I'm still on 1024 x 768. :cry:

Crono ≠ Majority
or do you want to be considered as a noob in the crowd or someone special ;P

One man army. :pluffy:
such a loner
