The edit feature for locked topics over on BG is missing.
If you start a thread with what threads to unlock, someone may be able to get to that.
Done.

Can we enable the viewing of messages in our outbox over on BG?

you should not have lost that. Double check and pm me if you still cant

A question of forum legality for whoever knows the answer:

Am I within my rights to post class redesigns of non-OGL classes that are not different in every aspect from the original? Say, for instance, I want to post a redesign of the Complete Warrior Samurai that consists of only 5 levels, has the same named abilities as the Complete Warrior Samurai, the same BAB progression, and the same saving throws, only the volume and order of the abilities is different (as it is a five-level class rather than 20); I would not be posting the text of any of the abilities taken from the Wizards of the Coast printing because, I understand, that would very clearly violate copyright.

Or would I have to stick even further to safety and say something like, "BAB: same as printed in Complete Warrior," etc.?

Given the masses of warlock and ninja rewrites out there, I think it's cool unless you lifted the whole class.

Childe · « **Reply #103:** November 14, 2011, 01:51:26 AM »

I'm going to PM an example just to make sure, since "lifted the whole class" leaves me still a little unclear.

Would it be possible to remove or change the 8) smiley? That smug little bastard is kinda annoying when he trolls my posts that include numbers before closing brackets.

Can you make the 'go to the first new posts in this thread' button a tiny bit bigger so it's easier to click on my phone?

I take it you don't have a zoom function on your phone's browser?

At present, we have to capitalize the word Jumping to keep it from changing to this: jumping. Could that tag be changed to have a colon in front of it?

Yes.

Thanks.

Garryl · « **Reply #110:** November 15, 2011, 02:59:48 PM »

Would it be possible to have a colon or similar in front of the 8) tag as well?

It doesn't work particularly well or quickly.

And about 10% of the time I'll accidentally click a link when I try to use it on forum pages which are basically walls of links.

... come to think of it, why do our forum profiles have a "website url" bar? I've never used it ever, and it seems like it'd get filled up with spam posthaste.

Is there a better way to make tables than [ table ] tags, or am I better off inserting an image?
Particularly the lack of borders between cells is an issue, though the lack of cell merging is also a bit of a problem.

Are we going to be porting all the handbooks over? There is a lot of great stuff that I don't want to see lost.

veekie · « **Reply #114:** November 18, 2011, 10:51:26 AM »

Theres efforts made to port them over, but its somewhat difficult with some of the original writers long missing.

Prime32 · « **Reply #115:** November 18, 2011, 11:46:10 AM »

There's some discussion of that here.

Mooncrow · « **Reply #116:** November 18, 2011, 05:10:19 PM »

Reformatting isn't as much of a problem now - mostly I'm worried about pissing off authors that are still active here

So for now, I'm trying to limit my transferring solely to threads that have been abandoned.

Small (and possibly dumb) question: I have some homebrew stuff I'm working to move to our new home, but I wanted to know where I could put it.

Currently, I have here:
-My bestiary;
-My Class fixes/remakes;
-and this.

Still need to move:
-My library;
-and this.

All this could be posted at the Homebrew and House Rules, or I should post them at the When Inspiration Strikes?

That looks like a good fit for the Homebrew section.
