RoleplayWeb
(Need Cool Logo Here. Make me one please :)
- Site News -
Back on-line after an extended outage.
Due to severe weather, I was forced to bring down the entire computer room. Power was interrupted for about
17 hours caused by the storm itself. It took about a day to physically get things back to a point where
everything could be brought on-line after the weather cleared. Thankfully, there was no significant damage
and I don't expect any issues with the site or data as a result.
New servers.
The site has recently been migrated over to new hardware. Although the new web and database servers are faster,
I was unaware of any specific performance issues to correct and this change should be fairly invisible to users.
Site Domain Name changing.
The site is changing names.. Beginning immediately, the site can be reached at www.roleplayweb.com
and the old domain will vanish on August 10. Updated your links by then as the old domain
will no longer resolve afterwards.
Added a secondary Journal.
Now there is a Journal and a Stats screen. Each one is limited to 7500 characters and the both can only
be edited by the DM. This should help for those that use the Journal as a rolling character stats page.
Player Actions are now archived with the Scene.
By default, the submitted Actions are displayed/expanede, but the view can be minimized from the Post bar.
The process to submit Actions, clear them, and edit them has not changed - you are still limited to a single Action per scene.
Added basic File Upload Support. This functionality is limited to the DM of the game.
Files uploaded are linked to the current Scene as a Post from the DM and are archived with the Scene.
Uploaded files must be smaller than 384KB and be one of the following file types:
htm, txt, rtf, jpg, jpeg, gif, png, bmp, img, zip, arc
