Did you manage to get this to work? I realize I'm way late on the response here.

Did you copy the link or title from ANN? Looks like it might be a unicode error, I know this forum doesn't accept some keyboard inputs.
Hours later, I managed to get it to work, yes. IIRC, I had posted a youtube link in the same session (not in the same thread), so... make of that what you will.

BTW, this happened on two different days.

The best part is that I can't tell if you're serious.

The people have spoken Ero! Your reign of perversion ends today!

<_< You baka! How DARE you suggest that we are tired of Ero's perversion? It's what adds spice to the otherwise dull staff situations we have. No, no, no! He was only proposing that we have an official disagreement. It has nothing to do with perversion!

Instead we will argue about what topic to argue about ... :wacko:

... :sweat:

I'm going to keep quiet now. :unsure:

I never heard of Discord until now... outside the dictionary definition that is.

Not even My Little Pony's Discord?

Anyways, chrono or Wata, maybe you want to make a new topic to mention the Discord chat? EDIT: Oh I'm stupid I missed it

Tee hee. General forum announcements are great. Still poking around to get something on the front page.

Is there a 'spoiler' tag in the forum? If not, is it possible that you'd implement it? I couldn't find such an option anywhere in here.

I wanted to post a snippet of my new story that's from the last few chapters of the Naruto manga, timeline-wise. Also, in case people want to talk about something like FFXV, it would be useful. (Off topic: congratulate me; I finished FFXV yesterday night. Yeah, I'm da man! :D)

We have one. It was the BIGGEST benefit of our move. Let's see here ...

This is how you use it,

Code:

Got it memorized?  B)  (to quote Axel from Kingdom Hearts)

And congrats on finishing FF XV! Is it worth purchasing?

Thanks.

Its gameplay (edit: battle system) is better than I have seen in a Final Fantasy game since... ever, really. Edit: it's also quite hard, especially if you haven't read a guide beforehand.

Its soundtrack is decent to good, but a bit too limited, unless you count the pieces from previous FF soundtracks (and yes, there are at least half a dozen from each previous Final Fantasy). Its side-quests are good, if limited (not in number - in variety: there's four kinds, which is still better than most: 1)Exterminate this and that monster. In Hunts, that's enough; in quests, you may need to get the item it drops; 2)Get this or that item from the 'Chests'*; 3)Go through this dungeon; 4)Pick up 3/5/10 colored toads/fireflies/whatever and bring them alive. They often overlap. Either way, the gameplay is still more varied than usual for a Final Fantasy.

It also needs a lot of hours of gameplay to even beat, let alone do the sidequests. Typically for an FF game, some sidequests and hunts are far harder than the final boss. I beat the game when I was at level 58-60, if you want to know, though I did do a lot of sidequests.

Its story is rather engaging, but gets convoluted and disjointed from a point on (don't worry; it's nowhere near Kingdom Hearts level) but the characters themselves are not all that interesting, mostly - you aren't going to relate to them the same way one might in X or VII (except maybe when watching the end-game cutscenes).

*Chests have been eliminated; what you're doing is pick them off the ground.

All in all, I'd say that it's well worth its money.

Blinks... the maker of that post sounds like he would get along famously with the luggage salesman from the old Tom hanks Movie called 'Joe Vs. The Volcano'

They weren't removed, there was an update for the site...which f***ed up things here a bit.

Mods are working on it, but it's been slow going.

To clarify, the web host did updates that fucked things up a bit- not the admins or mods.

The mods/admins are working with the webhost to try and get our shit back, though.
 
Okay, just asking.

Couple of general questions I'm not sure about:

Do our posts automerge at all?

What's the character limit on a single post?

How many images can we include in a single post and does that include the smilies?

(And wow, were we missing avatars for over a year? Longer than I thought.)

This is a horrible horrible feature, you really don't want it.

What's the character limit on a single post?
~16 million characters, but XenForo performance starts tanking after ~200000 characters.

How many images can we include in a single post and does that include the smilies?
It is permission based, and smilies don't actually count.
