Announcements & Such / And we're up!
« Last post by Trerro on June 22, 2018, 12:02:08 am »
Welcome back to all!

Our forum software was so old that there was no way to do a straight upgrade, so we had to do a whole lot of copypasta to get everything restored. All of the really glaring errors have been fixed at the time of posting this, but there's probably still a few more minor issues that haven't been addressed yet. If you find any, please let us know and we'll track down the bug.

Yes, I'm aware some colors need to be changed, we'll be toying with those over the next couple of days to get everything or at least almost everything in CC colors, ideally without making anything else invisible.

Please note that our logs were -not- preserved. For the most part, this isn't an issue, but it does have the side effect that nothing is marked read for anyone. This unfortunately means everyone will need to do a quick check through the forums for what they haven't read and want to, then click "mark all as read". This is a one-time issue; once you hit the button, posts will show read or not as expected going forward.

We are on en10 (Korch on British english) with a guild name of, well, Chaos Cluster.  It's set to autojoin right now so if you have guilds unlocked you can just walk right in.

Announcements & Such / Major downtime and upgrade
« Last post by Trerro on May 06, 2018, 05:29:56 pm »
The bad news: Our OS is ancient, and so is our forum software... to the point we can't even get security patches anymore. To fix this, we'll need to nuke the server from orbit and rebuild it. This will take quite some time.
The worse news: With Tinywarz, RO, and KoC all pretty much dead, activity here has dropped to near zero.

The good news: Sonya and I aren't stuck in the job from hell anymore, and actually have time to fix the server and get the community going again.

2 days after posting this, this website will go down for a very long period of time, including not even loading a homepage initially. Barring anything really unexpected happening, it will be back up by the end of this month.

Once we're back online, we're going to be putting in a large effort to contact as many old CCers as we can, as well as getting groups going in multiple games.

Our Discord is of course up and running, and will not be affected by the site going boom. If you don't yet have access to the Discord and would like to join, please ask pretty much any CCer by pretty much any means. (We don't post the link because we don't want to deal with spambots, but everyone is both welcome to join and invite others to it.)

CC General Discussion / Re: Looks like there's finally a viable XFire replacement
« Last post by pilz on January 10, 2017, 09:07:33 pm »
Is there a CC room for this? I've seen some people using Discord, I'm not a huge fan but its certainly a popular choice these days, and with so many versions of the app its very portable which I'm sure boosts its popularity.

I tried it and there are some things I'm not too crazy about (one thing being that it wouldn't log me in for some reason until one day it just FINALLY worked). I don't like how the channels are set up so the voice chat channels are separate from the text chat channels so you can't really talk to people in the same text chat if they're not tuned in to the same voice chat channel. And this is why I prefer to stick with RaidCall, even though the international client is being managed by Russians (less chances of DDOSing maybe?).

CC General Discussion / Looks like there's finally a viable XFire replacement
« Last post by Trerro on May 15, 2016, 06:34:39 pm »
There's a program called Discord. It lightweight, free, doesn't appear to have any ads, and seems to basically be what XFire should've been.

-You can create a server for a group, under which users can be assigned any permission settings, including allowing multiple admins.
-You can run multiple rooms, both text and voice, and they'll be under the same general side icon. These can also be sub-controlled, so if we need say... a more private room for strategizing as opposed to a public one that gets posted everywhere and is fully publicly accessible we can do that. It also allows to us split off general chat and RP, for those who are looking for one and not the other, or simply want them on separate logs. Rooms can be freely made and deleted, so if we need say... a temp room for one battle in one game, create, use, poof.
-It appears to support both the "Here's who's playing what" and the ability to run via overlay inside a game - the two main things that made XFire famous in the first place.
-It has a downloadable desktop client, downloadable phone client, and an in-browser version for when you're somewhere you don't want to or can't downloading.
-It puts everything into one icon, so you click the CC icon and there's all of our current rooms. No need to play the "where did that Skype room I haven't touched in a few days go" game?
-So far, I haven't seen any ridiculous start-up times, random crashes, rooms disappearing/renaming/changing owner for no good reason, random errors, or any of the many, many issues XFire had.

If you'd like to try it out, here's the site:

Here's the quick overview of what it does (including what it does that Skype won't):

WOOT! ;D Still waiting for that file upload thingamabob to work on the Wiki.

Also, do we have an email server set up for account confirmations and password resets? I'm guessing the inactivity in the forums could be due to people being unable to reset their passwords themselves and not having ways to contact you for that.

Also, in terms of design, are we still going with what inuko23 mocked up? http://forums.chaoscluster.com/index.php?topic=518.0
