Voting for the third option because our featherland was taken away from us... however I will stand by that the NSMB2 forums should be somewhat condensed due to lack of use, and perhaps NSMBU/NSMBW be given at least a single subforum due to them having no 'forum home' anymore as far as I'm aware, and the name of the forum itself being 'NSMBHD' rather than say, 'NSMBDSHD' or 'NSMB Portable Systems HD' lmfao.

That board is dead, the GitHub repo is dead, and this part is pretty poorly written in any case. Perhaps a nod to Dirbaio's GitHub repository and rewording it to be related to finding any bugs/issues within the software, or wanting to see the internals of the codebase.


This really shows its age. ABXD was never even properly compatible with IE8 to begin with, which makes this statement even more amusing. Something like 'the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox' would suffice here, Safari is irrelevant outside iOS/MacOS, and everything else is either a fork of Chrome/Firefox now or is so irrelevant in market share that it can be ignored.


There's absolutely no info on what to do if you've lost your password, which could go within its own section. Enough users here have lost passwords/access to their accounts and been forced to rereg because they for whatever reason couldn't contact the staff outside the board.


The thread isn't actually linked, nor is the 'website talk' forum.


Simple typo.


This code was removed around 2016. This should probably be removed. Other info regarding retaining of IPs for logging incidents and moderation purposes should probably be mentioned somewhere since some might feel concerned about this. (It's a question people asked me about with my derpboards, the first thing was 'does it store ip's').

A few things could also be included that aren't:
- Profile image size limits
- What mood avatars are and how they work
- A link to Sherry's post layout guide
- Using certain 'special' bbcode tags that are fairly specific to ABXD, like 'thread', 'user', 'forum', the special table tags and 'imgs'

A better solution IMO would be to throw everything that's already there into an "Other NSMB Games" subforum, add an "NSMB2" tag, and then remove the individual subforums (and move any NSMBW/NSMBU related discussion - if it exists - into the new subforum, too)

Since the main focus of the forum is NSMBDS, obviously the remaining subforums will stay, but the other NSMB series games (IIRC) don't even have a forum home, and there's been historically a decent amount of community overlap (mainly due to AcmlmBoard secularism and RVLution/RHCafé/NSMB2Hax back in the day) that could warrant, at the very least, providing some containment zone of sorts confined to a single subforum at the most.

Bunging everything related to the other NSMB games in the general ROM hacking forum (which is also extremely low down at the bottom of the forum list, even lower than the two archived offtopic forums) seems a bit weird to me IMO given the name of the site is attractive enough in its own right to post a project thread for instance if they're related to any of the 4 games really.

Welcome!

Go ahead I guess. Don't expect too much activity, though. I don't really understand why Thierry archived Featherland at all, I tried to convince him not to, but... /me shrugs

Only  Dirbaio has server access and we see more of Hailley's bloody Comet than we do him these days. Also, that's something I feel like I put into the known issues list which got moved to the staff forum. Surprised the TLS cert still works on the 3DS browser if anything, HTTPS stuff almost seems like it's designed to break anything not from the last couple months at most...

It's not a problem unless it's made into one by misusing each component.

I saw a post from crook responding to someone asking for an up-to-date file or something with "it's on the discord, join there", which is extremely counterintuitive to the very purpose of a forum thread.

It'd be like making a thread on here and then muting the entire Discord in order to force people to use the board for discussion.

can't unsee it

I hate myself

The snow world and beach world maps are also really sweet.

I haven't even listened to them in years and in fact I picked the game up for the first time in god knows how long because of this thread.

Thank you!


ROM space would become a problem though, surely?

FUCK



also lol
