  1. This has been updated, as we have a way to deal with applications via forms. I can create a form similar to https://saesrpg.uk/ban-appeal/ where you would select the club you are applying for from a dropdown list which would post within the clubs

  3. As the other poll has now closed and people want to go with clubs, I wanted to ask some additional questions. You can create the following with clubs: Member forum where club members can view and participate in topics. Public forum where club members can view and participate but public can only "view" topics there. It doesn't appear that we can allow public members to post within a closed club at this time. We are unable to create HQ only forums in clubs at this time either, but I'm not sure this much of a problem as you all have your own discord servers where you can keep HQ only data. I am exploring options that will give us greater control over clubs and possibly give us the features we need, but as they are all paid options, I will need to make sure we get the right one before purchasing. So I have two suggestions how we could deal with it going forward: USE CLUBS - We would create a form similar to https://saesrpg.uk/ban-appeal/ where you would select the club you are applying for from a dropdown list which would post within the chosen clubs for club moderators and leaders to deal with, this still gives you access to a private and public facing forum within your club and will allow self moderating without the involvement of admins. USE FORUMS - Use groups for HQ/moderators to moderate your current sections and use passwords for normal members to access your private forum categories (similar to how it was on archive.saesrpg.uk, you would still wait for admins to set these groups up and add people to them and change passwords when people leave/quit to stop them accessing your private data.)

  6. To whoever deals with this request, this donation is applicable for double donation rewards as it was submitted prior to the deadline but had to be manually approved which I overlooked. Cheers.
  7. As you've probably noticed, the side widget it back showing live server information, however, we have built upon the framework to show better information. If you click on the player count on the side widget, you will now see more information about the players on the server other than "ping" as we no longer use the built in MTA query protocol. Live server information: https://saesrpg.uk/server/live/ The plan is eventually you'll be able to link your forum account to your game account to show more information on the page and your profile. In other news, I've now shut down the RvB server completely as its not been used for years. View full article

  9. The topics are already in place in their original location and was migrated with the rest of the forum content, you just cant see them due to permissions. The move to the club would not change anything, it would be like moving topics from one forum category to another.
  10. I've fixed the youtube embed and pinned this @xBlue
  11. Hi All, Since we have moved to this forum software, we have been able to access a feature called "Clubs". Clubs allows people to maintain their own section, moderators, members and also allows people to setup forums, pages etc without the need of waiting for an admin to set them up manually. All your private topics, posts etc is still available and would be moved to either option you choose. With this in mind, I've setup a poll to decide what you would like to do going forward. Use clubs for maintaining your own private section of the forum with minimal need to contact an admin to maintain your area. (We currently don't have a way to make it partially open and partially closed in a club, so you would still need a topic in the gang/group/civ forum for your applications as clubs are private). Go back to the old method of waiting for admins to setup private forum sections for people to use, however this time round, we would not be setting up groups, we would set "passwords" on forums which you would need to wait for admins to change (which would get boring quick, as you would potentially need to change it each time you kick or someone leaves to stop them viewing your private content) You can vote and give your opinions here: The poll ends on Friday 6th Jan, 8:30am GMT View full article

  14. Happy New Year from us all at SAES. Thanks for being part of the community, especially those who have been in a position to help keep us running, it's really appreciated. I have a few things left to work on in the next few days in regards to the website, but once that's complete, I will start working my way through the suggestions forum and will look at implementing changes you guys want (and need). Unfortunately polls did not transfer with the migration, so please setup new polls and spread the word. Cheers 👍 View full article

  19. I will be hosting a power hour tomorrow (Thursday 29th Dec) from 7pm (19:00 GMT/Server Time) and will be hosting a few other events afterwards in which you can win various rewards. I will ping everyone again on discord, 10 mins before it starts as a reminder. I hope to see you there. P.S. A special thanks goes to @Yannick for sponsoring the event. https://discord.gg/saes-rpg-229936715383439361?event=1057678683818709153 View full article
