Forum Avatar:
1 - Due to FTP communications failure the previously uploaded avatars got deleted.
2 - I took the opportunity to adjust the forum settings to generate the uploaded avatars into a dedicated server folder created by me.
3 - For that reason, everyone that is with a broken avatar, needs to re-upload their avatar. Apologies for the disturbance, thank you for your comprehension.

Website & Forum:
- The top main menu, has been replaced by a javascript counterpart. No longer based on flash.
- Livestream.com solution replaced by Twitch.tv

- Teamspeak viewer code corrected, it now shows all icons correctly.
- Shoutbox, radio and obsolete pages removed.

- Shoutbox, radio and obsolete pages removed.

[Jonybat]

The main purpose for the shoutbox was to be a quick way of contact, especially for guests. Since the 3 different solutions that we tried all had problems of their own, it was removed from the forum. Being on a separate page removes the visibility almost entirely, hence making it pointless and misleading for those who were still using it.

We searched for alternatives, but with the functionalities that we want and without ads or other annoyances, are not available for free, and since it is not fundamental, it will stay like this until we update the forum software.

Hey guys!

I am moving RS site/forum to a new server (with cool new features) so expect some downtime till DNS servers do their job. I just hope I wont mess with databases 

Tried to reach Whitehorse but he seems too occupied with painting his new house

So, keep fingers crossed and wish me luck. I do not expect much downtime but due to RL issues it may take me more than few hours.
