Hey everybody, Here's a preview screenshot of the new front site. If you have a sec and want to share your off-the-cuff impression, that would be helpful! Otherwise, there will be a closed beta that starts once the new front site is successfully re-deployed on the server. I hope to launch the site for-reals next week. Thanks!

It's been years since thoughtcrime was made an official bannable offense. How have you escaped my wrath for this long? Nevermind. Don't answer that.

Firstly, @voidpointer, take note of the gentleman quoted above. His name is Tiagofvarela, and he's widely regarded as dangerous. Despite a generous bounty put on his head long, long ago, he's managed to dodge the judicious arm of the law, and even infiltrated deep into site staff. Just keep your eyes open. You never know when he's going to pop up. Secondly, you got lots of good advice on this! @Decay and I write VN translation status updates on the blog every week, so that's worth tuning into. I don't blame you for missing it, though: we actually have several "sites" as part of Fuwanovel, but they're currently a bit disjointed. That'll hopefully be fixed this weekend/next week, when they're all combined into one (at http://fuwanovel.net). So once that's up, you'll have to tell me if you think things improved on the visibility front. Thirdly, VNTL-Moon (http://moon.fuwanovel.net) is pretty cool, but it IS a bit outdated. I intend to get to it after the front site business is stable, though, so it should be a good resource again, soon. The way it works is that we pull the feed of translation teams' blogs. That means some groups (who don't have blogs, or feeds) can only be represented as links on the side, so that's a notable problem. The easiest way to keep up with news is thus ultimately our weekly VNTS posts on the blog. < 3 - Tay

Regarding Thing 3: it's working exactly as-advertised. If you don't like it, use This or That from the last update. RE: Spoilers/formatting changes - One of the GMs can do that for you. This is why they have ACP access. RE: Front Site - Just waiting on Nay's schedule. I'm otherwise ready to put it up.

Maybe it just had feelings for the site?

Okay, all done. (Note: Also made that post in the GM board)

NP. I'll also post a guide in the GM board for how to take it off, in the future.

List of new features: Thing 1 Thing 2 Thing 3 The other thing The thing you've been waiting for If you run into bugs, post them here. NOTE: The FuwaFabulous theme is still broken, so until I can fix it, please use another theme.

You may have some problems with your PM inboxes. Let me know if that's the case. I need to do theme updates, and will do them as soon as I can do some tricksy front site stuff (which, if I don't do now, I'll risk forgetting stuff)

It's good for the soul, from time to time.

My bad. Fixed it.

Nah. It's a feature.

: P Sorry, I'm a bit busy trying to do everything I can to prep the launch of the new site, and so I just threw a post together. (I'm still waiting on Nay's help to do a bunch of fancy prep, but otherwise we're pretty much there)

New features: The thing The other thing That This Possibly that thing over there Post any bugs you experience in this thread. Thanks!

Note to staff: Order 1788 is still in effect, which reads:

Welcome back : ). Here's hoping the next year is a bit... quieter... than your last. Best wishes to your mom's recovery!

It was epic. Flutterz was raised from the dead at one point, and I'm pretty sure Rooke was running around without a shirt for a while. Can't be sure, though.

If you run into bugs/problems after tonight's work, please share them here. Thanks! NOTE: The search functions, post counts, rep counts, etc., will likely be wonky until the site fully re-indexes itself.

Update: Confusion and rioting in the streets as Invision misplaced all the pennies we sent them. I contacted them and gave them the peoples' demands: chat, forums, and liberty Invision was like, "Nah, bro" I was like, "Yeah, 'bro.'" They were like, "Oh. Okay." TL;DR: Should be back up shortly.

I'll be working on improving VNTL-Moon today, so plan on it being broken for most of the weekend. ; P Also, I will not be available for much of tonight and tomorrow. If you have problems on the forums, the GMs should be able to help you out (they have access to the ACP). < 3, Tay

Sent you a friend request! Be my friend!

Friends forever < 3

I goofed somewhere along the way. Sent you a friend request, should now show up in the app. : D

I channel Rooke's sass and summon them from the depths of the chatter boards hell

Added you on Twitter. If you add me back, we can be friends forever! (@ArchmageTay) Added you on Twitter. Add me back and we can fight evil and pick on Silvz, together! Bwahaha
