Came back here to check threads I'm interested in and there's a giant 'Follow' button at the top of the forums. Did someone overfeed the darn thing?
You expect Cryptic to have someone who actually understands HTML and web development, or the Forum software they use?
For years now, it's just been 'cut and paste' here - evidenced by IDK how many times we've seen an announcement of a repeat of something and the dates are one year old, etc.
Formerly known as Armsman from June 2008 to June 20, 2012

cryptic isn't responsible for the forum and its issues, though - they're only renting the service, so i don't expect them to have someone who understands how it works
i DO, however, expect the people who own vanilla to have people who know how their own forum software works, because if they don't, that's...very bad
A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"
"It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch." "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
Passion and Serenity are one.
I gain power by understanding both.
In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
I am a shadow, darkness born from light.
The Force is united within me.
We'll always have the memories, years from now we'll look back and say "there was this time when the forums got all weird but it may have just been a dream or something. Whelp, got to go oil the robot overlords."
Bipedal mammal and senior Foundry author.
Notable missions: Apex [AEI], Gemini [SSF], Trident [AEI], Evolution's Smile [SSF], Transcendence
Looking for something new to play? I've started building Foundry missions again in visual novel form!
this doesn't compare to everyone becoming pseudo-mods, though - that was years ago, but i don't think anyone who was here at the time will quickly forget that
