Re: Password requirements

I hadn't changed my password since 2015 so I probably just misremembered it then. Thanks for the prompt response! :beer:

Re: Password requirements

There was nothing suspicious about me needing to reset my password. I probably just forgot it or used the wrong one. My post was meant to be objecting to the fact that phpBB's password rules have changed to forbid the style of password (actually passphrase) that I normally use. The XKCD post that I ...

Password requirements

I had to reset my password today. Not sure if was bit rot in the brain after so long away or something to do with the database corruption mentioned on the login page, but whatever, nothing worth grumbling about, right? Except Nesdev wouldn't accept my usual four-word pass phrase because it didn't co...

Re: The [code] tag should not have its height limited

Perhaps nesdev should switch to a host that's actually administrated by someone who isn't absentee? Unsarcastically seconding this. I take a break from Nesdev because the update to phpBB 3 made the site unusuable, come back a year later and guess what's still above the edit box as I type this? &quo...

Re: What happened to the Nesdev phpBB theme?!?!

None of this happens for me. Because you don't visit sites that force an #^@$%&^% unreadable font for the entire site, and thus have not blocked remote fonts, which the new board software is abusing for icons, like all the other "cool" sites with no regard for usability do these days....

Re: What happened to the Nesdev phpBB theme?!?!

Finally, our absentee admin returns. Glad to see you again, WhoaMan. I mean it. As for the ongoing discussion: I could hardly care less about the theme. My beef is that everything is broken . <rant> Every single button (and some things that aren't buttons) on the site has a box full of hex instead o...

Re: What happened to the Nesdev phpBB theme?!?!

WHO MOVED MY CHEESE!? Now I can't find anything, 90% of the site is unreadable because it depends on 11 different scripts and remote fonts, I can't move my mouse without some popup obscuring what I'm trying to read, I can't block said popups because half the links I want to find are inside them - wh...

Re: How do I shot web[site]

Okay, let's say I have a VPS or something, where I'm doing all the software myself. Does anyone have a checklist or summary of things I have to set up? I'm asking because I only just now learned there are a bunch of 'standard' email addresses every domain is supposed to have, and I'm wondering what ...

Re: Nova the Squirrel 2 (WIP)

Looking good! Just be careful not to add so much detail it becomes hard to tell what's important to the gameplay.

The springs, for example, currently have similar low contrast to the tufts of grass, and if you're red/green colorblind probably similar color too.

Re: Just wanted to say thank you to this forum

Yes, thank you! To everyone who helped make Nesdev what it is and everyone I've had the pleasure of talking to in the four short years I've been a member. Marscaleb was on the money when he said there was a lot of intelligent and professional people here. It's been a blast and a learning experience ...

Re: Character Art ]|[

Man, you have no idea how long it took me to make these. Actually, given how long it's been since your first thread, I think I just might! I spent months where I drew these characters several times a day, every day, trying to get the proportions right. That only makes me respect your skills more. I...

Re: Character Art ]|[

I can see you've teaked the mage's facial hair already, but it still looks a bit... not wrong, just not as slick as the rest. Feels a bit tacked-on. Otherwise he's very sharp, I like what you've done with him. For the reaper... I know the character is supposed to look like that, but I'm firmly in th...

Re: How do I shot web[site]

Thanks for the links, tepples. I feel I should clarify that a) the site I mentioned in the OP is going down because it's on a private server, which they no longer have anyone to maintain, and b) my interest in so-called 'silos' is so low that the articles you linked to read like a strawman argument....

How do I shot web[site]

I've somehow foolishly gotten myself tangled up in an internet community that's about to shut down due to their sysadmin retiring at the end of the year. I can't actually help them directly, because I know exactly two things about running a web server, those being jack and squat. But I've always wan...

I was hoping the downtime yesterday was because someone was finally getting these problems straightened out. Where the heck is WhoaMan? I hope nothing serious has happened to him...
