Dear users,
Due to some unexpected events that are taking place at my work tomorrow I will be unable to complete the update as planned. I have received all of the necessary information to start the update now, so it has been done.
Here's a rundown of all of the changes that have been put into todays update.
Graphics
You will notice that our navigation bar now fits the design of our current graphics sheme. This was created by VelvetThighs (Head Mod and Graphic Designer). We also have some new forum icons which were made by Patrol (Graphic Designer).
Forum Basket / Dump
At the bottom of the forum there is now a dump for all old topics to be sent to. This stops users post counts massively decreasing every time we prune the forum and go on a cleanup. This is a no-posting section.
And yes, I have saved the best until last. This one is the biggest surprise of all!
You will notice in the navbar that there is a new link. It says 'Chat'. If you click on it you will be directed to the chat rules page. If you decline your agreement to the IRC rules you will be redirected to the Home Page of the forum. If you accept them you will be directed to a page where you can select your session client. You can either connect to MerryMen Chat using Java, or Mibbit. My personal favourite is Mibbit, but you can choose what you like.
The IRC is a new concept to MerryMen users. Please use it with care and respect and thank midnight_tiger for hosting it for us! All admins/irc staff receive SOP/&/Admin, all senior staff and department heads receive AOP/@/Op and all regular staff members receive HOP/%/Half-Op. I hope to see a few of you chatting in there soon!.
Kind regards,
Tylers
Head Administrator
