Ulthuan

Amongst the stuff we have to deal with on a day to day basis is the absurd number of spam-bots that register around this place. Typically one every 10 minutes or so. No, that's not a joke. Sadly, the anti-spam bot measures are implemented by the theme, and the custom theme that Nagathi built for us ...

Look at it this way, I can fiddle while the site is online, or I can take the forum down to fiddle...

I noticed the site was down again the last day or two. Is there any more maintenance and downtime scheduled? You think we schedule this chaos? But more seriously, the downtime over the weekend was both unscheduled and unexplained. I've done nothing since the post at the top of this thread. More sit...

Well, that's been a rollercoaster 10 days. For me anyway. Before I start with anything more interesting, I want to extend some very public and heartfelt thanks to Bob and Rod for helping keep me sane, Eldacar for a lot of server work that even I don't have the powers to do, and the rest of the Lorem...

Hello, long time no see! Just briefly in case anyone doesn't recognise me, I'm Ricold, I originally installed the forum software we're currently using. Have been a Loremaster, gave that up years ago. About three weeks ago, the Loremasters asked me to help updating the forum software. I did so (a few...

Hey all, long time. I'm currently involved in a rather silly exchange on my blog. Originally, I was challenged to write thirty blog posts across the thirty days of November (It's called NaBloPoMo if you've heard of it). I decided to cheat. Instead of writing thirty posts in the thirty days of Novemb...

I've removed TPV and Machiara's, also Hammer and Anvil (No posts in several years, and one of mine anyway).

I've stuck race names after the specific forums, to help there.

Also, I'm not happy that my password is stored in plain text. Also, not happy that it was emailed to me in plain text on top of that! Please please please please, fix that. It's not stored in plain text. You entered it in plain text, it was sent to the server in plain text (because a free, non-ad s...

Hey, look what I found whilst tidying! It's a GW High Elf greetings card. No envelope, but otherwise completely unused. So, is it worth anything? Would you be interested in paying for it? http://ricold.talismancy.com/elf_card/DSC00563.JPG http://ricold.talismancy.com/elf_card/DSC00561.JPG http://ric...

The Ricold I remember would just make one regardless. And after about 3 months it would be the biggest around by far. Gah! I dislike* your comment for several reasons: 1) You are right 2) I have been considering it 3) That I still have that reputation after many, many years of inactivity on the War...

Hi,

Besides the Fantasy Flight forums, and boardgamegeek, does anyone know of any other sites with forums dedicated to the Warhammer Invasion LCG?

No, the rest of us are just as capable of it

Feed, you are always welcome to PM or email me for any help. I may not be active, but once you get my attention, I can still operate all the expected stuff, including all the admin functions on the library.

Eldacar is ignorant of the workings of the library, having never really had to use it. I, on the other hand, set it up. Images can be inserted in the normal way via html, if they're hosted somewhere. We can also host in the library. You should be able to upload files via Resources -> Manage Files. T...

Hey guys, While trying to load an avatar, I struggle to make it 150x150 and even when I do it needs to be under 7 Kb?!? That's difficult to do considering all of the higher resolution pictures these days. It's really difficult to get it under 10 or 12 Kb. Anyway it can be increased slightly by the ...

I found these whilst house cleaning the Talismancy server. I thought I'd share the memories, assuming anyone remembers these? War of the Beard: http://wotb.talismancy.com/tshirt-1.jpg http://wotb.talismancy.com/tshirt-2.jpg http://wotb.talismancy.com/tshirt-3.jpg http://wotb.talismancy.com/tshirt-4....

Are you really that angry because of a website? Don't occurred to you that maybe Andy matured this past years and he's not the same person he was and deserves another chance? I know I am and many others too. And besides, I would like to think giving people a 2nd (and maybe a 3rd) chance was charact...

Also he would like to let Eldacar in particular know that he strongly disagrees with him still being banned. 7 smaller time bans followed by now three permanent bans (across various accounts) if I recall correctly. Given the number of times he was asked to clean up and be polite, and he refused, he...

It still sort of shocks me that you are back on here. In a good way of course. I'd sort of assumed it was an easy fix. Who? me? I'm not actually here you know, I'm just a ghost that has an eternal haunting contract on the WT forum. If I were more enthusiastic, I'd ask for the password to go make th...

When Tim and I originally designed the skin, we never expected Ulthuan to have sub-forums, so didn't bother skinning them. Hence the two forums with sub forums have different icons. There are two solutions, one of the Lores can re-skin the sub forum icon to a skinned version, or the sub forums can b...

From the thread view: Note the line that contains the username. The right side box has the post subject left aligned, and then right aligned it has the date/time, and a small page like icon (To the left of "POSTED:") That icon is the link you're looking for. (So, for example, this post is ...

Well I've only been around since 2008 Youngsters, get younger every year... :roll: Where's Calarion or Elias when I need them? About the only two people I know that are still around and have been for longer than I have. (It should be noted that Sun's registration date is bollocks. He started postin...

:shock: Seriously? :shock: Don't tell me you actually believed that Sun was someone different? :roll: cidracin: Why do you think I stuck that one up in the middle of the April Fools list? Sun generated a fair amount of (justified) scepticism when he first appeared, as he'd not been on the Warhammer...

I still have a valid login (Sun's) to the system for editing the actual Hall, So that april fools thing a while ago where all the lores were like 2 people with multiple accounts.... was true? :shock: Well, most of it was lies, but the bit "Burning Sun is a shadow account of Ricold" is, wa...

In truth, friend Ricold, I do believe I made the last update to the Hall when I was nearing the end of my loremaster days. Should have thrown myself in it. :lol: Fair, I wasn't sure who was last to it. Anarion, of various people, I am firmly of the opinion that you should probably have a place in t...

Something I was wondering about, anyone know if the admins are subscribed to this forum and so get spammed by Ulthuan every time we post something here? That would be kind of ironic... Back when I was a Lore ( Why don't I have a Retired Lore admin rank?) I used to subscribe to Website Topics, as it...

I've added a "From" email address box to the feedback form, to make this easier in the future.

I got a feature I bet no-one here knows exists, if you're a Livejournal user. http://ulthuan-news.livejournal.com/ Not that the announcements forum gets updated as often as it used to, but that feed updates with the latest news (up to two weeks old anyway). Means you can get the announcements fed to...

Thank you for the overview. Seems like some good reasons to hand those out. On a similar note, I came across this place The Hall of Ancients . It looks like it hasn't been updated in a while. You're right. I fear I may have been the last person to update that. I'll leave it as an exercise for the l...
