      IRC Nickname: Maths Group: Ex-Member Posts: 1855 Member No.: 54 Joined: December 31, 2007 Total Events Attended: 286    | I know we have a lot of trial raid leaders, but no wonder you're pulling terrible to planned wars when your war forum is looking as terrible as this. Circled in green is the standard that all topic in the forum should represent. It a ) Tells me its upcomming b ) Tell me what type of war it is (f2p/p2p/matched/fullout) c ) Tells me the date of the war; all before I open the topic itself. With so many war topics in the forum, I want to find the war that's coming up first, but atm, to do this, I have to open every single topic. No wonder your pulls are terrible, if people are checking the forum the night before, I honestly can't be bothered spending 10 mins to find the next war. Following on from this, every single one of those war topics has a really poor layout. I do NOT want to scroll through a whole page to find out the rules/times/location. Honestly, go to the forum, open up one of the war topics, and you have to scroll through a whole page to even get to the times. Banners are stupid at the top, this isn't tipit/rsc, if I wanted to see our clan banner I'd look at the top of the forums. Spacing on these topics is terrible as well. You do not need 50 spaces between lines when you're stating the rules of the war. Basically, the things I need to know are - a ) Times of the fight b ) Who we're fighting (inc. memberlist) c ) Rules all in 1 condensed space, so I can read it on 1 page. The part that I do like is the sign ups and war times. Spacing is perfect and its just plain + simple. Make the whole topic like that please. --------------------  "Journeys are what brings us happiness, Not the destination." ~ Two time ex-raid leader of wg ~  | ||

 IRC Nickname: Armybuilder Group: Raid Leader Posts: 1468 Member No.: 2173 Joined: December 6, 2009 Total Events Attended: 227 | My bad on the tipit war. Hadnt finished sorting it yet i just wanted to get it on the boards before i closed irc and i had to trail through logs until i found it again. At least my first one was right. As for the Format of the actually posts. That was what We were suggested by Darth and then we just edit. I can write a new one up thats alot more simpler if you wish though. --------------------     | ||

 IRC Nickname: Darth Group: Ex-Member Posts: 4601 Member No.: 838 Joined: June 12, 2008 Total Events Attended: 558 | I just changed the template around a bit so it now looks like this Date/Time Mass 30 minutes before these times PST:Time/Date EST:Time/Date GMT:Time/Date AEST:Time/Date Summary of the war. Rules: -Location: -Type of war: -Who initiates the fight: -Fighting styles: -Sniper cap: -Fog items: -Gop items: -Dungeoneering gear: -Corrupt gear: -Rings: -War world: -Retired allowed: -Fansite posting: Sign Ups Signing up is Mandatory. If you are unsure then leave it for a few days until you are, but it's best to signup as a No and attend, then signup as Yes and not. Yes Look better? --------------------  | ||

| IRC Nickname: Maths Group: Ex-Member Posts: 1855 Member No.: 54 Joined: December 31, 2007 Total Events Attended: 286 | Yeah thanks kyle, looks at least a bit more condensed. If you're making a war, try not to put banners on the topic, but include the memberlist of the other clan. -------------------- "Journeys are what brings us happiness, Not the destination." ~ Two time ex-raid leader of wg ~ | ||

 IRC Nickname: Kcross|RDC Group: Banned Posts: 2535 Member No.: 1723 Joined: February 16, 2009 Total Events Attended: 202 | I'll take some responsibility for this. However, if you look at the events tab at the top of the forums, I always put [WAR] in front of any wars, along with a general description of the fight. The time/date is there if you hover your cursor over the event, too. -------------------- Kcross73 – KevCross – Kevin Proud Trial Guardian: December 24, 2009 – January 10, 2010 Proud Guardian: January 10, 2010 – February 13, 2010 Proud Event Leader: February 13, 2010 – November 27, 2010 Proud Council: November 27, 2010 – July 5, 2011 | ||

There's a problem with the clock on the events tab.. the minutes section (when it gets down to single digits) has no zero. It goes from 10 minutes to 9 minutes.. not 09 minutes. "3 day, 12:1:19" seems wrong. it should be "3 day, 12:01:19". -------------------- They call me the Master woof | ||
