Re: Stepping down
We should all thank Shurijo for that. He's done a lot of work in the past few weeks to make this happen.Blubbo_Baggins wrote:Wow...I've only just joined (Sept) but sad to see, and thankful it's not just disappearing!

I also want to just say a big thanks to Brennor and Bitom (and other Admins) who made a great site and help build a great community of players. We're not the largest pbp RPG site out there, but we have a good group of players, GMs, and admins that I'm glad to call my friends.

I've only played with you a little I think, but I'm still sad to see you go. And thanks for hosting the site for so long and trying to ensure there's a transition that enables its future existence.

Re: Stepping down
SVGs, applets, WebGL, those kinds of stuff. I don't know if other forum do. I just want to know if they are supported or if the GMs are limited to images.

Re: Stepping down
We could do it. Brennor could do it here. I'm not sure there's a need/demand for it. If enough people needed it and there wasn't any security issues, then I don't see why not as long as it's vetted via the admins with pros/cons.brunotr wrote:SVGs, applets, WebGL, those kinds of stuff.

SVGs shouldn't be a problem. Applets and WebGL requires browser plug-ins/addons. While technically possible, I'm just not sure if there'd be a big enough demand for it. If there's a good justification, then we (admins/mods) can look into it.
There's nothing technically preventing us from doing it here or there, but every thing like that has it's ups/downs and mostly in regards to security, exploits, etc.
Once we get moved, we'll have another "how can we improve this site" thread. The suggestions will be vetted on demand, complexity, labor/time, skills needed to code, etc.

Re: Stepping down
That is definitely possible. Shurijo already answered the other part of it. They are disabled here because they required plugins. It was easier to keep everyone from using SVGs than having to deal with funky svg plugin brokenness with IE6. IE6 still had a significant userbase when that decision was made though.brunotr wrote:SVGs, applets, WebGL, those kinds of stuff. I don't know if other forum do.
