THIS WEBSITE WAS CLOSING DOWN! (But now it's back!)
Sad days, but it makes sense. Hardly anyone has visited in the last week and even noticed that it was up for discussion.
With luck (Nominet may pull the domain name sooner) the website will vanish on 11th March.
WE HAVE FORUMS NOW ON OUR DISCORD, WHICH HAS BEEN TRANSITIONED TO A COMMUNITY SERVER!
I added all the names I recognised as Elders' Members. But some will be using different names on Discord. If you can't see the forums and you're not listed as a Member, there's one Public Forum. Post there and tell me who you are, and I will add you - any other Officer can add you too. Or, if you're currently playing, just catch one of us online.
There is also an Elders WhatsApp group. If you're a Member you are welcome to join. You need me to do that.
Elders' Members include anyone who was once a Member. Doesn't matter if you're on a break. Doesn't matter if the break has been 10 years! If you want to stay in touch, you're welcome. Once a Member, always a Member!
Incidentally, I have a full backup of the website. There's nothing I can do with it - I don't understand this stuff. It's 1.6gb in size. If anyone has a website and would like to host it, really as a Read Only site, please let me know. Monthly traffic to the active website is in the low 100s mb per month.
This is our Discord link:
https://discord.gg/DwFPaSErFS
There is also a blog page under development so that people who might want to join us can search and find us online. The link is
https://theelderskinship.blogspot.com/
I hope this covers everything. If I've forgotten something, please let me know.

Getting the hang of Blogspot. The page already looks very different. I might play some more yet...!

Indeed it is! Haha
Please let me know if anything is not working as it should.
I still have a bit of work to do, getting the folder icons right, etc.

I've now added some new icons. Let me know what you think. Anything not clear? Any improvements to be made?

Will do. Everything looks great so far. Really nice.
I guess we've got the newer version of phpBB as things look a little more modern.
I have just had to delete a spam post, so we might need to take a look at new user security.

Just had to delete another 4 spam posts. I'm not sure how we prevent bots from signing up but remember we had this issue before, and we fixed it.

We used a question about fast travel that everyone who played the game knew, and worked 100%.
Trouble is, after all this time I've no idea how we set it up.....

Found it, updated the wording, and re-enabled it! <pretty pleased with herself>

Unfortunately not enough these days- once a spammer finds out the answer, it spreads. I deleted lots of spam accounts this morning. I've set the new applications to have to be approved by an admin, hope that fixes it.
