Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
Why are we looking for a new site instead of trying to fix this one?
Just an observation from the latest posts, and it still isn't getting anywhere.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
My initial vision was to not leave this site at all, but instead how it can be obtained from synth to update it where necessary (since a lot of the issues seem to be things only he can do)

I have the feeling if Tass or the Devo/aper was still here, none of this would be an issue and players wouldn't have to worry. Also the fact that FFR has a looming death has made me not want to play anymore because there would be no point.

However, its still a temporary fix to a large issue that still should be hopefully addressed. But at least it's a step in the right direction

I feel like this issue is as easy as 1,2,3 yet as hard as finding the Holy Grail.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
In all seriousness though, unless synth hands over the reigns FFR will continue to die. It may even die soon if/when this hdd fills.
I don't understand why people are so reluctant to migrate. FFR has so many flaws already, it's laggy. A lot of the files are garbage and out dated. Notepad files............ and the website is horrendously ugly, there is no freedom for the developers to develop. Sure say but thirdstyle failed, that's different, it doesn't feel anything like sm or ffr. FFr is like sm with a community. Aim for that and win... But regardless we're all going to do nothing, the site will die. Someone will make us a new home(or we'll just return to sm/smo) and we'll migrate. |

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
I can count at least 3 sites
There's probably 4 or 5.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
It's just really demoralizing to sit around knowing the only proposed action that will get us anywhere is "find Synth" and nobody has been able to find Synth.
Like... ugh I want to be able to do something.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
Certainly possible, made a hell of a lot easier if access to the database was given.
Only problem really, that would be tedious/need to be done manually would be "reseting" the passwords for users, if access to the database was not available. As scraping the information for accounts would not give you their email address so, you would have to enable accounts manually for people which would get old fast. Well the scraping would be tedious as fuck too but the password settings would be more of a blag But even then you would need an engine to actually play on, it's all good and well scraping the website but it needs a smarter mind than mine to scrape the engine.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
Or at the very least, remove some of the much older forum content.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
This entirely.
Either set a limit to how long a thread can last (unless stickied) or do constant cleanups of older content.

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
If someone wants to hit me up with some formal contact info for Synth, I may as well give it a shot. I've interacted with Synth on numerous occasions throughout the years on FFR.
I helped with a Flash project idea back in the widget days for promoting FFR. I met/spoke with him at the 2nd official FFR convention. I've been around the old administration he worked close with both in person and through the website to the point where all of them could trust me. I played some Halo 2 with him lmao. Point is, he'll remember me and maybe for some weird reason he'll give me the time of day even though he's ignoring the admin folks. I've had to get in touch with him on and off about random FFR things going on in the past and it wasn't difficult as far as I can remember. It might be somewhat worthwhile that I'm within driving distance of him and I can at least propose the idea of a meeting in person to show we're all serious. I personally don't think it is necessary but I'd do it, perhaps as some form of networking. The idea is more for the principle behind all of this. Sounds kind of hopeless if he's not talking to his own staff here but I've always liked this place a lot. I want to try. |

Re: Attention: FFR Administration and Staff
<3 Thank you hammy. I will take you up on that.
I'll be writing something up with Fission, if you/anyone wants to contribute hit me up via skype OR ~ If anyone can think of something more appropriate, perhaps a petition? Let's discuss that.
