Title: Does anyone still lack avatars?
Post by: Setekh on October 16, 2003, 09:55:25 am: After adding Casualties Of War to the hosted database as a separate site and giving out the new avatars, I've been feeling in a good mood. I re-populated the Reciprocity and Inferno staff lists, so all staff members of those projects should have their avatars again. Is there anyone who still lacks avatars? :)

Apparently you modeled for them.

Post by: Nico on October 16, 2003, 12:13:43 pm: Nope, they just grabbed the models ( I gave them permission, they didn't steal anything, don't worry ) that were already existing. Ha well, if every campaign that uses my models wanna give me their avatars, that's fine with me :D

If I remember correctly he was entering your name as pyro-maniac (him or one of the other campaign leaders). I didn't fall into that trap not cause I'm observant but cause I just cut and pasted everyones name in rather than trying to spell them :D

Post by: StratComm on October 16, 2003, 03:43:56 pm: I still seem to be lacking any form of title whatsoever... :nervous:

EDIT: Hey, Inferno avatar! What is that thing doing there? (Looks at Inferno staff listing) Oh, nevermind. Setekh, you might want to verify that one with Woo...

Title: Does anyone still lack avatars?
Post by: an0n on October 16, 2003, 06:27:24 pm: I am of the opinion that to strengthen inter-community bonding, places like WS, NW, VWBB and...er.....well, that's about it. I think the upper echelons of those places should be given flashy, super-cool uber-avatars of a 75X15 nature.

I say this purely out of concerns that the community may fragment and not to effect any personal gains on my part. :ha:

Anyway, the publicity and inter-breeding would be good for all concerned. Especially me. And in the end, isn't that what really matters?

I, however, would finally be officially raised above the rest of the malcontent peasant and elevated to a level of powerless, but flashy, god-hood the likes of which no other troll has ever seen.

Post by: StratComm on October 16, 2003, 07:55:42 pm: He's not the only one without a title, though perhaps the only really visable one. Should be fixed I think.
Title: Does anyone still lack avatars?
Post by: an0n on October 16, 2003, 07:57:12 pm: All avatars were tied into the user-titles. So I'm guessing when they took out all the old avatars they did something stupid like made an SQL query to find all the user-titles containing something like "img src=" and remove them to make way for the integrated avatars.
Title: Does anyone still lack avatars?
Post by: Stealth on October 16, 2003, 08:02:32 pm: yeah, but KT had some avatars, and when Setekh tried to add his Inferno one he messed it up. i'm guessing he tried to add it manually? (like, through the admin control panel)?

i'm not sure how Styxx has it hooked up to add the title/avatars... and even if i did i probably wouldn't know ;)

Tis' kinda funny though, Inferno being the one project I totally neglect and all. :nervous:

Someone decided to be smart and add your avatars as a custom field rather than adding you to the staff listings and generating your avatars that way. Tell me your old avatars and I'll add you as staff on those projects.

Title: Does anyone still lack avatars?
Post by: Galemp on October 17, 2003, 12:36:39 pm: I had FSPort (of course), Star Wars, Scroll of Atankharzim, DatDB, Reciprocity, NTV, TVWP, and FSURP.

Of course I'm only really dedicated to FSPort and SA so those will do.

I also seem to have lost my status as 'staff' for those projects since I can't post the news for FSPort on the front page. :hopping:

Sheepy, if you could go and visit some internal forums, note down which ones you have access to, then come back and give me a list, I can fix it up for you. ;)

i know, but i think saw some new ones, like one for COW (IIRC), after the "no more hosting" got in.

but really, if i'm wrong, a pity, but no big problem.

Post by: Setekh on October 18, 2003, 04:57:23 am: CW has been both hosted and complete for a long time. I only put the avatars in recently because - well, really, I don't know why they weren't there before. :)

Post by: kasperl on October 18, 2003, 05:14:29 am: ah well, a pity, but no biggy.

Post by: Sheepy on October 18, 2003, 08:04:32 am: Well i thik i should have PI, seeing as i was put on as beta tester, but CP seems to be hogging all his work as of late and not letting his so called "staff" at any of it.

You dropped out of the project before doing any work.

I've removed most of the staff from the list so you should all lose your avatars again. If you've been to the internal recently you know why, and what you must do to get it back.

Setekh please don't add anyone to the Inferno staff list, most of the staff have ignored the campaign for over 6 months and so I started a no work=no avatar policy.

Once you can confirm that position for me, I'll add you to the staff listing. :)
