    Terra Arcanum's main page is going down for a while as I make some changes to the layout. It might take me a day, or it could take me a week, depending on how many unforseen problems I end up running into. Note that our <a href="http://www.terra-arcanum.com/phpBB">forums</a> will still be operational during this time.

    Who is the true Diablo would be more appropriate. Just take a look at his picture.

    I think he has no left mouse button anyway, so we are safe. At least for now.

    Actually, the avatar is from the inside box of ToEE. I needed something for a button on the front page that links to the ToEE content and I kept a theme of faces happenin' for each game. The button looks like arse (the one for Vampire is better) but it'll do the job 'til our graphics Monkey does a run over the design.


    Generally they're left behind and they become posted by "guest". Signature and other info is gone from the post but the contents are still there. If I want to delete the posts, I can run a query that'll delete all posts by user 'x' (which is run before the user is deleted).

    Also, the new site will be up in another day or so. I just have to fix the existing Arcanum content (as much as I can in two days) and we'll worry about adding in other game content as time goes on.

    ... and yes. I did enjoy quoting this entire message twice. :)

    That's why banning a member is the prefered method. If said user ever returns, we could just compare some IP:s, and flame the poor sod into oblivion by using his previous idiotic posts against him.

    Ah, the joys of flaming.

    I'm very sure you did. I guess you can't help your fondness for quotation curves.

    Speaking of which, would you mind if I began refering to you as "Curvy"?
