Title: I wanna b*tch about losing my Avatars...
Post by: Taristin on September 24, 2003, 05:10:55 pm
Because I was getting proud of my miniscule Team membership... Now everyone'll just think I'm a German-made automobile... :/

As I posted in the TVWP internal, I tried adding you before the new website went online, but the database didn't like the quote in your name.  Yell at Styxx. :p I resubmitted, so as soon as Styxx runs his update, you should have it again.

Well, it took me all of five minutes to figure out you were Snipes (I mean, QM and "Snipes... is the dark Continent"?). Raa is easy to say, anyway. ;)

I tihnk you have to register with the database on the new site first. Try picking register, and then just connect it with your forum login. If that doesn't work, it's because of the apostrophe in your name. We'll work on that (well, actually, Styxx will). :) ;)

I tried that... I didn't wanna sound like a jackass twice in the same thread. :p

It's the apostraphe... Am I the only member with one?

I guess so.

Well, what is this login for?

And on a side note? What is the XML link next to your news post for? All I get is page coding... Is it supposed to be there?

RE: XML - Run a Google search for "feeddemon" and download it.

The MG staff are in a similar situation cause I didn't get access till today.
 What's this about Styxx having to run an update? I thought the whole point was that the avatars would automatically be added as soon as the person was added to the staff list (thereby meaning that admins didn't spend lots of their time adding avatars for people)

Post by: Taristin on September 24, 2003, 05:57:20 pm
Well, it may just be my apostrophe, but I'm added, but have no avatar...

Edit: If it'd be easier to just get rid of the Tor'h part, go ahead... I don't like how people mispronounce it anyway...

Serves you right, really. :p I mean, honestly - how are we supposed to pronounce "Tor'h"?? ;)

Talk to your project leaders. The avatars will be generated from the project data on the website, so they must add you as staff members on the projects. I'll run the updated regularly until it becomes fully automated in the very near future, so don't complain about avatars to us.

What happened to my AS avatar? :hopping:

Read the post above Snoj. Go to the new HLP frontpage find the AS page under hosted. If your name isn't on the staff list go complain at your project leader rather than complaining at the admins.

OK.

Darn quick reply, making it so easy to post a reply!

I honestly don't mind my loss of avatars.
It's not as if I've done anything for either project for ages anyway...
