Has anyone else experienced that when you try to "reply" in PM's, the guild uses the old markdown rather than the BBCode?
Dedonus
Yeah, thanks. Bug. Update: Fixed
Yes, that would be appreciated. Thanks. :)

Alright, I'll do it when I get home tonight.
The new BBcode system is mediocre.
Finally, something positive.
Is it better now? Worse? No difference?
Do you have the (for lack of a better word) infrastructure in place to send automated private messages to new members right now?
Hank
Yeah, I could just programmatically create a new convo in the same step I create a new user. I could use the Guild Mods account to be the sender of the PM. Staff could login to it periodically to see if any newcomers responded to that PM with questions or anything.
At some point I told the mods to stop honoring name-changes a month or so after the previous relaunch. Maybe that's why it was closed. So, to be clear, still want me to swap the names of your accounts?
Is there a smilie that encapsulates that moment when you re-alias yourself from a kinda cool username to something that sounds like a rainbow-condom/icecream-bar? :magicmagnum

here's two EDIT: one more

I still have the Gwazi Magnum file you know. I can switch back to it at any moment. :P Which I just might, considering I switched back to Gwazi on Iwaku.
Magic Magnum
If you want me to just swap your usernames or something, I can do that. I think such a change would elevate the level of discourse we have in Spam a few brows. People might be reluctant to post in spam when "Magic Magnum" seems to dominate the place. Wouldn't be surprised if the text "Magic Magnum" even sets off some parental filters.

RIP nat
Yeah, good idea. The guild used to greet guests with a quick-start guide on the homepage. Link to the homepage in 2012: https://web.archive.org/web/20120207084453/http://roleplayerguild.com/ Link to the quick-start guide: https://web.archive.org/web/20120503201825/http://roleplayerguild.com/showthread.php?t=55005 I need to revive and renovate that, at the very least. I also like the idea of an introductory PM to provide some sort of reference for newcomers.
