Obviously not. Now that you've said that, we're expecting it. If that was indeed the case initially, Z has to now sit around and come up with something else simply to present us with something unexpected, a task that grows harder as the months drag on. I hope you're happy with yourself.

robertthebard 06-26-2006 09:46 AM

The truly unexpected part of the unexpected is that there are no changes, and Z started this topic to get the buzz going, and to see how many times it could be necromancied.

So many guesses.. C'mon there has gotta be at least one correct answer.

Cloudbringer 06-27-2006 02:08 PM

I dunno, I think you'll look good in smurf avatars...but that taco idea is pretty appealing!

Ok, Ok, you wrung it out of me... Larry really IS going to post in his miniskirt and we're all taking a group photo for the cover of People magazine... *goes off whistling...remembers she can't whistle so starts humming* La la lalalalala

Expect the Unexpected?
Coming this Fall, Ironworks will be upgrading the Forums! Nothing this big has happened since 2001. It's time for a change, and let me tell you.... It will be a change.

SpiritWarrior 09-27-2006 03:09 AM

Well all I know is I've been on the edge of my seat for almost a year now, watching for any sign of 'the unexpected'.

Over a year. This thing was presented in like August 2005 first. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Cloudbringer 09-27-2006 08:42 AM

Teehee.. yes, keep watching, it's coming soon to a forum near you! :D

It's not going to come unless you stop expecting it.

Will it influence the content of your reasonable posts ?

Dang, and here I was thinking you meant the other thong... *snicker* and we were gonna get some underwear shots ....but then that'd exceed our family-friendly rating... ;) [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

It's been quite exciting, and there've been a good bunch of weeks as well. One has to wonder though, do these new changes hail from some distant star system, or did their car simply break down?

Dundee Slaytern 11-07-2006 04:46 AM

You guys are still expecting. You can't expect the unexpected, if there's expecting! The universe would implode!

Ziroc 11-07-2006 04:47 AM

Smart ass ;) .

Nope, simply still working on my patch for my NWN Mod. It's taken more time than I figured it would. (wanted to add more goodies).

Don't worry Legolas, it's coming. I am one person remember. Why the attitude? I pour everything into this site and my NWN mod for you guys.

One thing.. will probably do a vote on this, but should I have more than one color scheme for the new design guys? Like choose from 3 or something? Maybe have all the colors of past boards--blue, brown and the new color?

Believe me, I wish I could clone myself and do it all at once, man! WOOOHOO!

what i only want is quotes wherein it doesnt automatically adjust the spacing into a single space. [img]smile.gif[/img] hope that feature comes along

Bungleau 11-07-2006 07:58 AM

Ahhh, grasshopper... you can defeat the evil board software, if you choose... quote this post to see how....

Yeah 3 schemes would be nice. I like the blue personally.

I have always felt a "threads you recently posted in (or created)" button in your profile would be a great idea. This way if you were looking only for threads that moved too fast you don't have to go searching through the forums for them. Say dor example, if you just needed a quick answer to a question. If I came on just for the answer i'd hit my profile first and go check my threads.

Link 11-07-2006 11:50 AM

I don't think Legolas meant bad, Z.

He's just saying that "It's coming... SOON!" gets old after a while. I need only refer to the highly anticipated update for your Undermountain MOD, which, eventually, came a year after you originally announced it.

And don't you worry either. You may not be able to tell for my frequent lack of smiley thingies in text but there is neither demand nor complaint in my post. If anything, it's a mix of curiosity between what the great plan is and how much longer the thread remains relevant - I don't believe we have a great many aging ones outside the dismally silent rp forum.
Having an undermanned, ongoing NWN project of my own, I've wished for clones on more than one occasion myself. Some things take time, others a mood, still others take grit teeth, dogged determination and a willingness to suffer for what is hopefully the greater good of the project. I rarely manage deadlines, there's always more to do and everything needs improving, but until I'm getting paid for it only my fellow contributors have a right to complain. A little.
However, if I ever should post a rant, I'll be sure to make it clear.

Great news! You can have that *NOW*, without waiting another moment!

Just go into a post you've made and hit "profile" next to your post entry. You'll then see an option for "view recent posts", and there you are!

You can also search for yourself in the directory, where there's a link to "posts" for your ID.

And if you click on your name in the Recent Visitors area, it will take you to that same profile listing where you can view recent posts.

Unfortunately, when you click on "my profile", it takes you to a different page, and that is not in there (at least, not where I can see it).

machinehead 11-07-2006 08:03 PM

Was the site being down it? Sure was unexpected. :D

</font>[/QUOTE]Yeah, I knew about that option. Ideally what I meant is it'd be nice to almost have a bookmarker system to build on this one, where you could track posts and not just those you have posted in. Such as a thread for fixes or news about games or other events. As you pointed out, half of that is already implemented.

Sir Goulum 11-07-2006 08:48 PM

So this has been delayed for over a year... but it's just around the corner! For real, this time!

HAH! yeh. Woke up, wondered why I didn't have my network icon on... the router was in some cycling thingy looping. Must have had a power spike or surge. My home PC was also rebooted. :(

Anyway, all is good now! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hey, that WAS unexpected! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
