Location descriptions are fine, especially if it's a faction HQ. That's a plausible use.

BBCode should now work on profiles. Let me know if you find any bugs. I tried to match the codes we had on the old site. The list is configurable.

I'm pretty sure it's a ProBoards thing. I was getting that error message last night as well, even in the Admin panel. It seems to be gone now?

The Whills are aware of this thread, and are giving the idea careful consideration. At this time, I am not endorsing or prohibiting the idea. There are pros and cons that must be weighed.
A few quick comments and warnings:
1) We did not intend to move the data, nor are we asking anyone to wait while it is moved. Our intention in opening the site was to allow people to get on with their storylines. The old site will be archived in it's present format or another format.
2) The majority of the cost of the old site came from the volume of traffic it was seeing, not the size of the data. After a few months, the archives won't see a large amount of traffic, so the expense should be greatly reduced.
3) It may not be legal for you to blanketly copy other players' posts to this site, due to technicalities in the ProBoards Terms of Service. Refer to the sections on User Content and on Intellectual Property, if you're curious.
4) I should note that copying your own posts (or your friends' -- with explicit permission) shouldn't be an issue -- so if you want to go back to the start of your current storyline and re-post some stuff, or something like that, go right ahead.
5) If, after consideration, the Whills were to decide that the data can and should be copied over, I can provide that data to you in a MUCH quicker, more useful format than can be obtained by copying and pasting individual posts. From a technical standpoint, I could grab each entire thread out of the database and format it as needed.

Atlantis is right on both questions. We may be able to add a setting so that you can switch the order of posts. I will add that to my list.

We had platinum permissions on the old site, is there any way to get those permissions returned to myself and Ice? Ditto for me and Raven Alora on Felucia, please? It's coming. In the mean time, are there a few threads you'd like created?

No video (I've removed the button). We would greatly prefer that images be limited to OOC areas.

Smuggler's Run, please. (Wild Space/Within Hyperspace) -- I know it was a faction HQ before, but it's a necessary locale for many crews. I got you covered. One of us will set that up when we set up your group.

I went ahead and made the three threads. I'm not as sure what to do with the RDMC. You might want to go ahead and request a usergroup, for OOC purposes if not IC.

And as for the Platinum planets thing - stand by. We're still sorting that out. But if you're still active and Platinum quality, you really shouldn't be worried.

Faction headquarters can be re-requested along with your faction usergroup. As for other locations that weren't faction headquarters (single threads, at least), we can go ahead and create those as long as they were in use on the old site. I'm going to see about creating a request thread for those.

Had no luck, I'm afraid. Can the Username be just changed to Dav Poodoo. Apparently my fix only works part of the time. Let me see what I can do.

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but will the announcement on the jedivsith page be changed? There may be some non-twitter users who may be unaware of the new url. Yes, it'll be changed soon.
