Is This Thing On?

Sorry about yesterday if you weren't able to access the site. Telefragged took down the servers for upgrades, making them even more monstrous than they previously were.

On a slightly more important note, I'm decided to try a "dry run" of the comments system I'm busily adding to Doomworld. There are still some kinks in it right now -- for one thing, the server often won't update the number of comments listed underneath each news update, and it's also not on a permanent databse so anything you post might be erased in a few days. But whatever... try it out! Give me a good reason to make comments a permanent addition to Doomworld.

Remember that you can register by clicking on "Create an account" next to the "Username" box.

What does this system need in a browser? So far my account creation requests have been met with a dialog box that asks for authentication and wants my username and password (which I don't have yet, obviously). I have Java and JS turned off, so is it that, or is it something on DW's end?

i would assume that this would work in almost any browser that supports input boxes.. etc

?

I'm Canadian!

I think this works pretty well, I say you should keep it! Karl-Oscar Olson karlo@mbox302.swipnet.se

These boards are a very good idea, and I like it when news sites provide a board related to the stories. Definitely a keeper. BTW: Are the old message boards that were on this site a couple months ago still active? I couldn't find a link to them anywhare on the main page. balanco00@my-deja.com

Probably because there never were any?

balanco i think ling would know if there weren't any .. him being the lord and master of all things doomworld and all .. youre probably thinking of forums.doomnation.com

Odd. --balanco00@my-deja.com

Does HTML work on this thing?
