If you go for more then might end up with what you originally want

Interesting question but its one I have no idea about

I know you can prune the accounts on VB.

HW forum is all right you just need someone who moves threads into there correct forum, it should help increase other forum usage

I wonder if it's like the forum accounts which seem to last forever, despite 4 year inactivities

Never you mind.

 

[raw.]

I think its a good idea also, i know you said dont worry if your forum account doesnt match your barrysworld account.

I just wanna see how it will work..

My BW account name is "raw-" and my forum account is "raw" when they are merged, will i be known as raw- or raw ?

Also, whoever registerd teh account "raw" with bw, was a clan ages ago that now folded sometime ago, any chance of u pwning him and me having it back ?

 

[shadow`]

that's _exactly_ my problem raw

people registering names, being inactive for aeons and taking up valued nicks :|

 

[MYstIC G]

Stupid Question Number 1

Will the merge have any effect on the usernames themselves though, i.e. will I have to lose the space in my nick & become mysticg or mystic_g, or onewhosforumtitlegetschangedbythatgittrebzatwill

it's all good
the version upgrade Summo mentioned would be really cool tho

el updated versions don't really add much tbh. From what I could bring myself to read, the recent ones have been "this is a bugfix release" then the one after is "whoops our bugfix actually pissed stuff up, our bad, heres another bugfix"

 

[.cage]

Yeah, the smilies are largely shit, with the notable exception of the roll eyes one

Accounts do not expire, they will last forever, unless we decide to do some clearing out. If we ever do a clear out though people will get due warning and we do check for activity on the account so even if you miss the notices if you collected mail the day before the clearout you wont be deleted.

Regarding mystics comment on the forum username, your name will stay the same, the forum will use a membership alias rather than the membership name. (from what im aware)

Also regarding mystics comment, I will change your title at will and unexpectedly at random, fear me.

sux0r

I hope you're going to kill all the shit inactive forum accounts that are just excessively clogging the system (whether that slows the system at all, I don't know or care)

 

[Summo]

I like the smilies. All of them. I fought for them. Leave 'em alone!

No!

Feel free to add this one, in fact.

They're fucking atrocious. They should be bottled and tossed out to sea (ooer) where they can inhabit that Davey bloke's locker.
