The last months were full of trouble for the Titans, well at least for our homepage/board.

After changing the provider I now also changed the forum software. Spambots registered faster than we could delete them despite constant updates and other security measures. Although I am a fan of the idea of open source products it seems to be the big dissadvantage of phpBB. Security holes can be found easily and we can't do much against it.

Anyway, now we use Woltlab's Burning Board! I converted all the posts and users so you won't have to register again just because of this change. Simply log in as before on the new board. All old posts are there too but unfotunately it wasn't possible to convert the private messages. A little price to pay for a more secure board with more comfort for everyone.

I still have the insider list and will build the group soon. So all of you who were in the insider group already will be there again, just give me some time.

Beside the insider group all rights are set and the board is ready. Yes I know, the standard style is ugly, but it wasn't my top priority tomake it pretty right away. A better style will follow soon.

Now to the project itself:

Yes the whole trouble with the provider and board did actually influence the project, but not much. We are all working on Redemption and we are making progress.

I will put some new infos online soon.

There are two things we need though: We desperately need a new 3D designer (or better two). It's funny how this part of the production was a problem from the beginning and still is. We just can't seem to find a 3D guy (or gal) who is willing to stick with us.

We also could use a new writer for dialogues.

If you are interested send me a PM. It's very important that you also show me some esamples of your work.

Thanks to you all for staying with us! Smile

No spam yet. Looks like the new forum is working. Hurrah! I was really getting sick of wasting about 15 minutes each day removing spam posts (and about twice as much time with being angry about them). This time could have been used much more productively.

Thanks Corv, much relief that the spambots are (hopefully) beaten. Of course I was hoping one would advertise supplies of 'resublimated thiotimoline'
That would have been fun - maybe someone will discover it one day!

Too bad about the pm´s. Never got the chance to show my sister proof that I won one of the contests Frown but nevermind Cool for it matters not. All that matters is that you can keep on working and in some cases slaving on this project.

p.s: go see nacho libre. Laughed quite a lot, especially the second time around.

(yes, I am still saving the shoelace for the celebration soup when the project is finished for those who are still chained to the walls eating scarabs).

BTW, the games forum is gone?


I´m getting home sick...

The old forum is still online (at least you can check the PMs) but not for long anymore: http://cfkasper.de/board

I think I will delete it all some time during next week - so go and read / show your PMs.

I didn't check yet if there is some kind of arcade plugin for wbb. If there is one I will use it.

In general, if you guys see interesting stuff for wbb 2.3.x then let me know.

Msot important things:

No everything beside 3 buttons should be english

(changed SUCHEN to SEARCH
MELDEN to REPORT
ZITAT to QUOTE
PROFIL to PROFILE
Kalender to Calendar
...)


the three buttons are:

Neues Thema = New Thread
Antworten = reply
los = go

I didn't change them yet because I am not sure if I maybe use another texture for them... I think you can live with them till then Wink
