Future of BSH

[Samuel Lion]

@ Roger well darn that sucks but the good news is i will be able to research a lot for both of my characters and get a pretty darn good history for them.

I like Sid's idea about six months. Played at a decent pace then slow things down after the attack. that way we have some time to get certain Lt Jr promoted to LT *cough* me*cough before the attack. I think maybe war games and possible a skirmish with pirates.

So glad I went back and read stuff, because I was going to suggest mucho peacetime rp. I'll still second the motion, thought. That way the relationships are there and the attack can be the big to-do it needs to be.

Well, I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we are 100% without a doubt going through with the reboot. The bad news is that we're absolutely doing it because, well, the archives got deleted. Oops.

The short story without my excuse-making is that I was trying to clean up the archives. Sid did me a solid and dumped all the IC threads into it. That left tons of little subforums in there too so I was deleting the subforums that were empty so it wasn't such a huge cluttered mess. In the process I accidentally deleted the entire damn thing.

Although the loss of the archives is not a huge blow to the site (especially since we're rebooting) it was 18 months worth of writing and had some real gems in it. I'm still in shock from what happened and I'm sure that many others will lament the loss of some really great threads along with me. You all have no idea how sorry I am for what happened.

In closing: I hate the proboards admin system so damn much and am actually considering going to invisionfree or some other more admin friendly system and giving up on this particular site before I inadvertently delete the entire damn thing.

Don't worry yourself to much Roger. I debated the idea of getting rid of it all anyway. Sure there were some good gems in there as you said but the cool part is we get to look forward to making plenty more new and great threads as we begin the reboot.

Let us move forward with a clean slate and make this site better then it has ever been before.

[Samantha Casey]

Don't worry Roger, what Sid said, we will make plenty more amazing and fantastic threads. *hugs Roger* I'm excited for a reboot, it should be really fun and we will make it better than ever!

[Azura Lockhart]

At least it wasn't the application archives like it was when that happened on the 'verse

[Samuel Lion]

Nooooooooooooooo! Well that sucks however there where only a few threads I will miss.
Jerome's first post was by far the best post I have ever made. I don't think I will ever be able to recreate it.with that said it's a reboot so sacrifices had to be made. you have done a lot of work for this site Roger don't beat yourself up over it.

[Roger Davis]

You may have noticed tons of Roger posts recently, many of them creating nearly blank threads. Hopefully we'll be able to fill them out shortly. If you're looking for the older thread then it is in the archives (and not deleted this time). I've also posted up a WIP of the new rulebook/guidebook.

Finally, I've updated the Current Sitewide Plot. That is our current story and the outline for our first round of posts. Feel free to use that information to aid character creation and soon the start of IC threads.

I still need to go through Fleet Command and also shortly I'll transfer all the character apps into the app archive so don't be surprised when that happens/don't keep using Fleet Command stuff that is not updated yet.
