Private Forum Security Issues and HONOR

Ming · June 19, 2003, 11:30

It has been obvious

that there have been security issues in regards to the private team forums being private.

With the help of GF... I have hopefully solved that problem. But I just don't know for sure.

So... It is a matter of honor that people play the game fairly. Trust is one of the most important elements of gaming. I ask that anybody that can still see other team forums to PM when you can, so that I can correct the situation.

In addition, if somebody notices anything "funny or weird", please feel free to contact me with your concerns.

And on that note... I can only add...

Keep on Civin'

Amén. Thank you very much.

Now we can finally discuss ways of seducing the other team's women....

Honor? The game is supposed to be for fun anyways. If you go into other people's forums for ungood intents (I am not referencing anyone here, serious), then you're not having fun, so whut's the point?

However, I completely agree. Honor hasn't been broken in the first PtW-DG (I hope

) and I don't think it will be now.

(Isn't saying "This game is the fun game" equivalent to "Old timers and grumpy cheats, go to the first ptw-dg"?

Nahhh... I go where attention is needed... just my job.

Plus, with the slow speed of the site in the last few days, it's easier to keep up with all the trouble spots

Plus, if I miss something in the OTF, you can bet MtG will be ALL OVER IT

We have a new problem in our private forum. we cannot make attachments in a "post reply", except if we opened a new thread (at the first post)

Nimitz · June 19, 2003, 20:22

You can't post attachments in the Private Forums. Use the upload feature instead

We've become so used to that bug in the private forums that we don't even bother to petition to have it fixed anymore. Dan and Mark's policy of "Ignore them and they'll eventually shut up" appears to be paying dividends.

Ming, is it possible to get this fixed?

Never noticed it was possible with first post.

Make sure you read the FAQ first and take it very literally!

While I probably can't fix that type of problem... I can "constantly" remind certain people that it needs to be fixed.

I don't mind the bug in the other PTWDG... I like using the upload because it allows other nonmembers to see the map if I link to it i.e. in chat. This is incredibly useful in border treaties and whatnot.

Thanks Ming.
