While attempting to do some basic maintenance as well as work on something else this morning I accidentally deleted dragonfactory.org. Not to worry, backups are all there, but I thought that rather than wait a while for things to get restored I would do something that I’ve been intending to do.
The site has been really really dead, and the managing it the way it was was starting to aggravate me. So simplify simplify simplify. I got a number of complaints about how the old site worked and it never seemed to get better. The new one should be significantly easier. There’s a very basic forum that should be straightforward and easy to use. There’s no hidden categories, no complicated hierarchy or anything like that, its just easy to read posts. You’ll need to sign up again, because transferring accounts would be a lot more trouble than I have bandwidth to deal with right now. The main page will be used for posting important news, and the forums will be there for anything and everything else. I’m not planning on doing much else other than rounding out our about us page, although if we have needs come up I’ll add more.
