Barrowmaze: new requests

#1 Post by Spearmint »

Hello team.

Thank you in advance for administrating the forums and facilitating the campaigns.

I would like a new forum for my new campaign please: Barrowmaze (1st ed D&D mega-dungeon).

I will also post requests here for additional player forums as needed.

A new forum -- Barrowmaze (1e) -- has been set up for your campaign, and placed beneath your existing 'Tour of Duty (Revised Recon RPG)' game.

You have been set as the moderator for your forum, and you should also be able to make 'sticky' posts.  To add users to your group so that they can post in your forum, follow the instructions outlined here: How to add players to your campaign.

Please consult the 'How to make and find your campaign ID' if you're unfamiliar with the Unseen Servant dice roller.


Feel free to reply if you have any questions or issues and an admin will be able to assist.

Good luck with your campaign, and have fun!



Thanks,
Dave

My apologies. I should have asked for a Spearmint private forum for my GM campaign notes.

Thank you.

Thank you. I can see you are busy Dave with your own new projects.

I have a new request or question. I see my Spearmint forum which only I can see and access. That is great. I won't ask you for player ones at this point.

However I would like to replicate having forums that I could put multiple topics in that all the players may access. This worked really well for the (in character) settlements that we used in the archived (completed games) Lab Lord North Marches. I don't expect so many as the campaign is not so open world, but would prefer to use that model if I can.

To begin with I would like two.
Settlement: Helix
Settlement: Ironguard Motte

Thank you.

I've gone ahead and set these up for you.

They may, however, require some permissions tweaking. For now, they're just set up as general public forums, but as sub-forums under your game. In other words, they're organized in such a way that you'll only see them when you're looking at the forum for your specific game. But, they're "open" forums, in that any user on the boards will have access to view them if they find them.

If you want them hidden from general view, but still available to just your players, we'll need to make some tweaks.


Just let me know.

Thank you. I went to make coffee and came back and get presto, they were there.

I don't mind at all 'lurkers' viewing what goes on as they are public not private and might encourage interested people to future recruitment.

Thanks again.

Forum looks great and a hundred posts up.

I had a player preempt me creating a seperate topic (I think we were posting at the same time) and would like his topic deleted. I tried to delete it but it still shows. If it cannot be deleted can it be renamed as Helix: Mercenary Guild though I would prefer it to be depleted.

It is the one in the Settlement Helix forum listed by Jedion as 'chapel of St Ygg' which duplicates what we already have.

Did I not follow the delete procedure properly myself or can only folk delete what they post?

I think GMs only have the "soft delete" feature. Which should hide the posts and thread from everyone but you and the Admin team.

In any case, if no one has posted after them, the first poster in a thread can delete that first post, which will delete the thread. So what you could have done here was to delete your post, then had Jedion delete their post, and the thread would be gone. :) But this only works if there is only one post in a thread. So once you get too many, an Admin can delete it for you.

But to make things easier, I'll just delete it.
Have fun and game on!
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Thanks. I understand now. I could still see it but I didn't know others couldn't. So that is okay as players are not confused and add to it.

Hello again.

One month in and must be 500 posts made. Phew!

Despite my initial reluctance, I am fielding requests for private forums and as the game has developed, they will undoubtedly assist players who are doing lots of behind the scenes in explorations, conversations and future planning.

So I would like private forums for my current batch of players please. Thank you.

Just seeing this now. Apologies for the delay.

I should be able to get these set up... hopefully later today, but potentially tomorrow.

Actually, I have a decent backload of other things I need to do, so I will just go ahead and do this now. I can see this being something I forget otherwise.

It's no problem.

That particular request just came in during a rough spot so I'm a little behind. Very temporary situation.

These should be done, with:
  1. The individual player forums arranged alphabetically;
  2. The new 'settlement' sub-forum arranged beneath the other two, but above the players; and
  3. The 'Completed Expeditions' sub-forum at the bottom.
