I debated converting all the users from the YaBB forum onto the new one, but then i realised that instead of writing a program to do all that for me, that it would be far easier to just ban anyone who attempts to register other people's names on the older forum. So please don't try, it just creates me work, and i'll only end up banning you. By not converting everyone, it also allows a fresh start and will allow us to see just how many people there are new signing up.
The YaBB forum will continue as is until the end of the month, where it will become read only, and will stay like that for a long time as it is a useful reference for both the users, in terms of old technical/help topics, and for the staff, for the staff map archives and development forums.
All game staff have full moderating control over the whole of the forum and the rules from the old forum still apply. This forum also offers the ability to merge topics together that are of similar content, so if you post something that has already been posted that you didn't read, it may get merged, forcing you to read it anyway!
