Administrators Popular Post Amethyst 2466 Posted December 3, 2017 Administrators Popular Post Share Posted December 3, 2017 hi there, i'm ame from the overwatch team and welcome to the december community update. this month, we're deleting the entire forum: Speakeasy? gone. Nightclub? deleted EXP system? toast. ...actually i'm pretty sure that deleted itself months ago against anyone's will... which makes me pretty salty about the plug-in i bought for it, but you know... whatever. Ace Members? dead. just kidding they're veterans now Veterans? anihiliated. double just kidding the veterans are fine and in fact they have a lot more permissions than before Clubs? all traces of them removed actually they're now fully available so you can make your own clubs and stuff if you're a veteran or higher anyway there are four kinds: public, open, closed and private. the first three are visible; private is not there's rules to making clubs and stuff so administrators will need to approve them but we'll talk about those rules in a different topic soon but tl;dr you need a president a vice president and at least three other members. like a japanese high school. because you wouldn't be on this forum if you weren't at least a little bit of a weeb. and even if you aren't, i'm a level 89 dark weeb. or it can be a private club. those are free reign. gosh, overwatch has gotten weird, hasn't it? with the removal of the EXP system, there's no longer any reason for us to limit rep/reactions so harshly. therefore all groups have had daily reputation limits significantly expanded. Reactions per Day per Group: Members: 3 => 10 Veterans: 4 => 30 Supporters: 4 => 30 Developers: 10 => 30 Staff: 10 => Unlimited Since the ace members have joined the veterans group, the veterans group has received ace's permissions wherever possible to make sure that those former aces are losing as little as possible. That includes a lot of trivial things, but some of the notable expansions include: Tinted name color Display name changes ever: 60 days => 45 days Increased attachment/cover photo/profile picture size PM storage: 200 => 300 Can create clubs Can view who reacted to posts Attachment space: 3mb => 5mb Can close own polls Can edit posts silently Can hide and lock/unlock own content I will also pre-emptively say that all of these changes are benefits I would like to be able to maintain but if these things begin to cause problems (such as if we suddenly are running out of upload space, or if hiding content gets out of hand, etc) then we will make whatever changes necessary. If you had access to the Nightclub forum before, you should have received an invitation to the new Nightclub... club... ... uhm, we'll work on the name. If you were missed and did not receive an invitation, please accost me vigorously until you do. Additionally, due to recent site errors (you know the ones. i know you do) we now have a new theme! ...We thought the old theme was causing our problems, but apparently that's not the case. So... that just means we have two themes now!!! You can switch between them at the bottom through the drop down menu that says "Theme". Note that on our new default theme, Brave, you can use this button... ...to switch the accent color on the forum. No points for guessing what the color options are. As for the errors themselves... no promises on them being fixed yet. But we're getting there. We might be there. Too soon to say. In the mean time, please be satisfied by this pretty theme. please. pls...... and i mean, i guess there's the community release too. if you're, you know, into that. 7 2 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ZEL 349 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Dunno whether to make an entirely new post or just point it out here, but I thiiink someone ought to put that Magnezone back in place on the old header & theme: It decided to start moving around rather than letting the background do so :') I mean, I'm all for freedom for all those poor PULSE mons, but we might have to make an exception for our pal up there. Other than that: I've been complaining about the "trivial" ace privileges for so long that it's honestly gonna be refreshing to finally be able to do the basic things. Thank you!~ Oh, and have fun @ everyone with the episode, I guess :') Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NickCrash 250 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Staff: 10 => Unlimited You mean to tell me Azery can do whatever he likes now? A big improvement in general. Well-done. Although, that would mean some changes for the nightclub ... in game. Or not? w/e 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For aces it was, yes. This was a case where I decided it might be better to keep it longer, because with that many more people having access to it, it becomes difficult to know who anyone is when it's so frequent. So I compromised on 45. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Takosher 257 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I figured that's what was up And despite changing my name on cooldown, I welcome the nerf. Because I already have no idea who anyone is >_< Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zarc 1571 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Little question concerning clubs : when we want to create a club we have to wait for a moderator to valid them. Are they receiving a notification when a new club is added or do we have to send them a message ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That still exists, but I don't think it's good to make people check a list everytime they want to see who's talking too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
