While many complain that some in-game features are simply outdated, the fact is that many players log into the server and don't use the forums to communicate at all.
Using the Bluebar feature when you log into the server is a tool. It should feature a video of the week and an article from the archives as well (tinyurl links work well), it should always reference thetain.org as a source for plugins and the most recent version of myth 2. Featuring tournaments is ok, but there are other ways to use the bluebar as well.
The bluebar is a tool, we should use it.

Re: The bluebar is a tool, we should use it.
The Godhead forum is no good for now. All the links to all the articles are broken. It's being worked on.
I've put a few of those articles I liked most here:
http://mythipedia.wikia.com/wiki/Myth_Manuals
http://tinyurl.com/MythingLinks (this is a page I recently created, and it's a wiki, so others could update it if necessary)

It could also just point people to a page that has all that stuff on it.

And if the bluebar was a link to a page, the bluebar could say "New content posted to xyz on 2/20/2014" or "new videos posted" or whatever.jason_ac wrote:It could also just point people to a page that has all that stuff on it.
Re: The bluebar is a tool, we should use it.
VR actually put up a bunch of the articles on his site and courteously also converted them to bbcode. It's just a matter of me finding the time to integrate them back into the forum database now, but ball is definitely in my court there.jason_ac wrote:The Godhead forum is no good for now.

Update: the articles are now posted in the relevant threads. Thanks again to VR for doing the legwork on getting them converted to bbcode.

No one has played kickball in the past 8+ weeks
Can you please post something about The Winter Series 2014 having registration open instead of misleading people to show up for nothing?
thx
