Alrighty you guys, take a nice gander at the forum now. First and foremost, if you had to log back in at all and don't have your settings to be logged in forever, you should right away notice that RTC has a brand new, spiffy looking default skin based on the Mystery Dungeon series as promised. If you haven't taken a look at it yet, go to your profile and under your skin settings, look for the skin called "We Are Explorers".
Aside from that, a number of boards have been moved, rearranged, created, or deleted. All posts have been relocated to a hidden trash board, so all posts are still on the forum, just unaccessable. Anyway, here's the jist of how some boards went.
If you read the spoiler, you should know that we also have our RP Boards up. Now keep in mind that they are not complete. These boards, in a sense, a on trial. That basically means we're testing them out to see what kinds of results we get and better tune it as we go. Since we never did a plot RP before, we want to see what happens with them. But if you have questions about the RP boards, feel to ask away.
Anyway, like I said, this update is unique because we're still updating as we go based on the results we see. We hope for some good results from our members, that being all of you.
Oh, and yes... new profile feature. We sacrificed the "Location" option on your profile for "Favorite Pokémon." Choose Master Bidoof as your favorite to be awesome.
And lastly, if all goes as planned, the first YouTube video of Heart Gold will be presented on Monday the 14th along with a set of fresh screenshots and photos.
And if this didn't make a lot of sense, then shut up; I'm half asleep and exhausted today from my job and working on the site constant since getting home. Stop yelling at me. ;_;
Aside from that, a number of boards have been moved, rearranged, created, or deleted. All posts have been relocated to a hidden trash board, so all posts are still on the forum, just unaccessable. Anyway, here's the jist of how some boards went.
- Contests board has been removed for obvious lack of contest. If any are to occur, we'll make an announcement on it or something.
- Site Relations as been split to no longer have sub-boards and to be two separate boards- "Newbies & Guests" and "Site Feedback"
- R.T.C. Station renamed to "Newbies & Guests" to make it less confusing on new members and easier to find.
- Even if hardly posted in, Site Feedback is still open because we are always ready an willing to hear your opinions on how to make the site better!
- The Advertising Board has been removed since we don't get much advertisiments from other forums anyway. May make a comeback someday.
- The Mystery Dungeon Category has been deleted completely, though the General Mystery Dungeon board is now under the category "Pokémon General & Media," right above the General Pokémon Chat Board
- The S.O.S. board has become a sub-board under PKMN Mystery Dungeon General and the previous sub-boards in it for the different versions of the game have been removed. We don't seem to do rescues much anymore, but what the hey... its our start.
- The Pokémon D/P/Pt & PBR has been renamed to simply "Pokémon DS Games" for the sake of a shorter name. Sub-boards within remain.
- "The Music" has merged with "TVs, Movies, & Anime" to become "Entertainment." You can also discuss books in here as well.
- Three new main-frame RP boards have been added in the Creativity Outlet category! "Constupro Elementum" is our typical Trainer RP brought to you by Lexy, Explorers of Distortion is our PMD RP brought to you by myself, and the Party Board is where any other RP goes, be it serious or random that doesn't contribute to the plot RPs.
- There is now also the Character Audition board. This is where you post character profiles.
