Site ???? What's New!?


Site Questions


Obviously there's a lot that's new but I'll try to highlight some of my favourites changes :)

Besides the increased functionality there's a lot more SPACE.  We can now spread out across the screen and on to more pages including a dedicated Marketplace forum. 

Given this new wealth in tools & real estate, we've been able to relax some of the old rules which had been implemented because of crowding.  See Guidelines for the complete details.

Events: Can now be recurring.  This should save a ton of typing AND help showcase more extended events that cover more than 24hrs.

Marketplace: Posting frequency has been increased for once a week to once a day.   All site members are now welcome to post in the Marketplace (as opposed to Site Supporters only).  Marketplace topics can now be categorized making them easier to find.

Blogs, Images & Videos: Can now be categorize, again for easier access. 

Profiles are a new concept.  Each User (what we use to call Member) has at least one Profile and may have more than one.  Each Profile may have more than one User.  This has some interesting implications for roleplay as it is possible to set up a Profile (Marie Antoinette for example) that is managed by a number of Users who take turns playing the role.  Profiles will be discussed in more detail at a future date.

Guest Books are a great place to welcome newcomers or say hello to old friends.  Similar to how we used Comments but you can only place one Guest Book entry per Profile.

Following is a bit different than the Ning Friends.  If you Follow someone, their actions will be shown on your Profile Timeline so you can see what they've been up to.  You can also send a Private Message to people that Follow you (as well as to the Admin).

Exciting stuff!!  What do you think?

Site Guidelines


Site News & Guidelines


USERS, PROFILES & GROUPS

Users must maintain at least one Profile which reflects their unique avatar information.  This Profile cannot be used for stores, companies, groups etc.  A user may mention his/her business in their Profile Biography.

In some cases a User may have more than one Profile to facilitate their roleplay identities.

Duplication of Historical Groups & Figures is allowed. However, new users are strongly encouraged to educate themselves with regard to currently used Historical Groups & Figures and adjust accordingly. Let's face it, being one of twenty "Marie Anotinettes" can lead to confusion and will probably not be as satisfying in the long run as carving out your own special niche.

Advertising is not permitted in Profile Pictures or Groups.

Musicology of Marie Pleyel


History

Sounds like a very interesting project. Sorry I don't have any information that would help but hopefully someone else here does.

Queen's Hamlet Co-op: A New Community Activity!

Bonjour Jacon

I think it's wonderful that Antiquity has experience with G&S. We'll have to brainstorm ways of working together. Right now the QH has a few fish and some grain growing (and no money) so it will be nice when we are able to buy/trade for exotic stuff from our historical neighbours :))

I agree, Tiamat.

Look at the challenge of creating a tapestry. First you grow the grain, then you raise the sheep, then you shear the sheep, then you spin the wool, then you weave the wool. You need a source of clean water and you have to find a way to acquire the grain, sheep, spinning wheel and loom. You also need to keep yourself healthy and find the time to do all of these activities. No wonder working in a community was a life saver.

This example can be repeated for carpentry, blacksmithing and culinary adventures including vinting/brewing.

In today's "available on demand" world we often ignore all the steps that go into the production of items. No wonder Minecraft is so fascinating to kids :)
