Welcome to our new Forum!

We hope you'll take some time to take a look around the new forum and familiarize yourself with the available options. I'd like to give a huge shoutout to Kazyyk on the assistance setting up the bones of the forum and handling some of those finer pieces. We'll continue to make adjustments and add nifty features as time progresses. However, there are some key elements we want to ensure everyone is aware of:

  • User Registration
    • Unfortunately, due to the nature of our previous forum boards' legal requirements, transferring data using a system to farm the information is not allowed. Therefore, the transfer will be manual. However, simply copy/pasting your content in non-bbcode format should yield positive results in terms of like-for-like conversion.
    • You'll have the opportunity to connect your Discord account with the Forum. This is highly recommended. It's no secret that we leverage Discord more than most servers, and this will help make the connection between Forum-to-Discord-to-Server.
  • Discord & Wiki Link
    • At the top of the forum includes links to our Discord and Wiki.

  • Discord Integration
    • Several of the forum's post features integrate seamlessly with Discord, including Role management as well as postings that are specific to Announcements or other IC elements. This is aimed at encouraging engagement across Forum, Discord, and into the gameworld.
    • Details on how to integrate your Discord & Forum account.
IC Forums:

We've made some minor tweaks/additions to the IC Forums, as seen below:

Inside of the Biographies Forum is a Subforum for Character and Gameworld Artwork. "Announcements & Notices of the Lands of Intrigue" will be posting by the DM Team to indicate and announce current events as the world progresses around us. At times, these events will be unrelated to PC actions, and at other times, these will be directly caused by PC actions.

OOC Forums:

You'll notice a lack of a traditionally "Bug Report" forum. This is intentional. We track Bugs in two ways currently, through Discord and through Trello. Involving the forum in this workflow creates more trouble than it is worth. All bug reports should be submitted via Discord using our built-in Ticketing system.

We hope you find yourself well-suited to this new format, color-scheme and layout. We're looking forward to leveraging the new forum in a more dynamic way to create a strong roleplay experience for all players.

Thank you!
-Aschent
