Karsten, If theres anything we can do to help, just ask. As far as gaining another forum to look at, well you would lose one also.

Help is only a post away. With all the talented folks we have, nothing is impossible. Ian

Change channel to: #NPLB and click connect now

Uses java and works, no ads, dp would love to see you there :)
You can also use mIRC, which I use mostly, and I'll keep it open for awhile.
For a quick and fast chat thing, you can use the java client.

Use it anytime you like.

Cool, that works! Much better than what I'd set up.

I tried it but Willie Windows won't download the ActiveX control. It says the file has no publisher. Any other way of getting the ActiveX control I need? It asked me if I want to install anyway, which I respond yes to, and it just sits there (probably counting up Willie's money).

Do you have Java installed ?
Chat app needs Java

Got it fixed. It was an IE8 problem so I switched to Firefox.

Thanks Brian

Hi all,

I am pleased to announce that the new forum is, for the most part, set up! We don't have any of the old forum's data transferred just yet, but the forum itself is working and ready for action.

The whole administration squad has been pre-registered so that we could get all of the fancy behind-the-scenes stuff set up.

mdettweiler (myself), Bok, AMDave, and IronBits are administrators; gd_barnes and MyDogBuster are super moderators; and kar_bon is a moderator for the NPLB and ROLP groups of subforums. For those of you who weren't already involved in the setup process, I'll send you your passwords via email. Most likely you'll want to change them after your first login.

I've placed a sticky thread in the Forum Feedback subforum that describes the permissions and capabilities of all the different classes of users, as well as how to distinguish them at a glance.

So, without further ado, here's the link to the new forum:

http://www.noprimeleftbehind.net/forum/

All of our members are welcome to register there as soon as they like; please keep in mind that if you want your old posts from this forum to be connected with your username on the new forum when we do get them imported, you'll need to have your user ID on the new forum be the same as on mersenneforum. (Note that even if you don't pick the same username, we're pretty sure that your mersenneforum username *will* still be identified on the post. The only difference is that they won't be included in your postcount, etc. on the new user.)

Enjoy!

Max

I give up. What the h*ll is a super moderator. Sounds like something I'd find at an NHRA race. Can I get a job description for that? LOL

Maybe a DC-Vault.com Admin group would be nice...

IronBits · 2009-04-22, 01:09

We added 4 new members today

I suggest all new members get registered at the new NPLB forum, as well as all the other members of NPLB.
It will come in handy later on with the stats I'm sure... a little birdie told me

Also, the admins, super users, super moderators, moderators and anyone else that wants to ask questions or answer them even, should be using the Free-DC chat server.

All you need is Java installed and click this link: http://www.free-dc.org/chat/chat.html
Change Nickname to: ScreenName
Change Channel to: #NPLB
Click on Connect Now and you'll be there.
There are many IRC clients that can be used as well. I use mIRC myself.

Just do it

It's all described fully in the "user privileges and name colors" thread in the Forum Feedback section.

Essentially a super moderator is like a regular moderator, but they can moderate all subforums, not just selected ones.

I'm awaiting moderator approval for my account to be allowed to do, well, anything. Is this really necessary for new members? There's got to be better ways to prevent spam bots.
