  1. *nods* They've made a lot of hype about the new 'activity streams' also, but it just seems like a bother to me. It might be useful on a high activity forum. Rather wish they'd added the 'Pages' feature instead of making it an add-on extra. I can see uses for that feature.
  2. And a note to everyone, the editor in version 4.1.xx doesn't fully support bbcode. The editor is a WYSIWYG Rich Text Format instead of bbcode. IPB beleives bbcode is archaic and to be phased out everywhere. We'll see. There are plenty of people upset with that, but IPB has made it perfectly clear they have no intention of going back. The skins/themes for this version are scalable: ie, the same theme works on desktop, tablet and mobile. And the editor is scalable along with it. You will have a smaller set of editor controls on it's toolbar with small screen devices.
  3. Life happens, 'tis fixed. Welcome to TWP, make yourself at hone.
  4. 'Tis done Lemme see here.... Removing .... YakuzaTriad Servus Domini Casper_Pwyll Fratellnoir Updated masking... Little Sealand 'Tis done!
  5. Welcome to The West Pacific Thank you for the introduction to the ESU, I appreciate it.
  6. Not sure I see the purpose in a separate thread. To Admin, masking requests are all the same regardless of their purpose. And it's certainly much easier to keep track of a single thread. But it's Winnie's call.
  7. Interesting, I had a good friend long ago that was Nigerian/Trinidad and Tobago. His father had been in the government, but was booted out and they moved to his mother's home in Trinidad and Tobago. From there he went to High School in London, and the the US for college. He had problems with his English at times and would ask me, "What word am I thinking of James?" I would say the word and he'd say, "Yes, that is what I am thinking of, thank you." in his staccato accent. He always liked when I was smoking my pipe, he liked the smell of the pipe tobacco. "Fire it up James!"
  8. I recent tried TAILS 2.5 OS, same OS that Julian Assange and Edward Snowden use. Anonymous and leaves no trace. Thar be a dark net out there to explore. Looks like there's a way to bypass TOR blocking (as NS does) in there. Not that I would want imply that there's a way in there around NS rules.
  9. The "protected" notation doesn't apply to you, it looks that way to me as an Admin too, yet I can access it fine. It says that because the forum in question has a password on it. However, as a Guardian you don't need the password.
  10. Dateline The West Pacific, NEWSFLASH!!! A time vortex opened up on The West Pacific forums due to "military exercises" at the TWP Armed Forces Headquarters. Forum administration reported some "pretty neat duplication loops" as a result of the supposed "military activities". What exactly was the TWP Armed Forces up to? What new and devious design are they implementing and planning on unleashing upon an unwitting NationStates? Stay tuned!
  11. Sigh indeed. *nods* Well, I can change it for you, but you'll always be TWP Mayor in our hearts. The Mods usually say that they usually don't act until someone points it out or notices that someone DoS has created another nation. Sometimes they don't know until they get a GHR with a tip. But that's just a guess for this case.
  12. *nods* Once upon a time on a different forum there were links in the profile box that connected to your nation ingame. But not on this forum.
  13. Welcome! How many political parties are there in Europeia ? Having parties is something that often doesn't work in NS regions, but it has been successful in Europeia.
  14. It was fun to watch at a distance too.
  15. Oh no, not the Order of Gryphons. Yup, I remember them..... and you too, though I only seem to remember the second and third names. Although, my NS memory is hazy is spots. Welcome back
  16. I miss them on one hand, and on the other I don't. I lost much too much sleep. I think the time I visited the Meritocracy, the only one I really talked much with was LadyRebels.
