exit: Feel free to come up with whatever you like, but keep it not too much larger than the current image. Also keep in mind - we can have different images for different levels, it doesn't have to just be an increase in number.
Mindless: Yep, these can be added. When we have a full set, let me know and I'll pop them in.

Lemmings Main / Re: Original Lemmings Level Voteoff (Round 3, Section 7)
« on: December 24, 2014, 09:12:57 AM »
Qualifying levels this round are:
Tricky 18 "It's Lemmingentry Watson"
Taxing 28 "POOR WEE CREATURES!"
I might wait until the move is all done until doing the next round, as it'll be simpler than moving mid-round (and I don't want to just start the next round on the new board until everyone's moved over).

I've now given the new site a proper domain name instead of just a subdomain on NeoLemmix.com. From now on you can use the following link to access the new forum:
www.lemmingsforums.net
This should be pretty easy for people to remember, since it's the same as the current one except .net instead of .com.
Any links using/containing the old URLs will just redirect to the correct new ones, though if you chose the "keep me log in" option you will have to log in again. If you can't access the site at the moment, just try again after a few hours - it should already be working for the majority of people though.

I haven't done the actual coding for it yet, but I've pretty much worked out everything needed to import the posts from here except exactly how to add attachments properly to the database - once I work that out, that's all the pieces and I can start actually putting together some code to import them.
EDIT: Change that "pretty much" to "completely". The last thing remaining was how to add attachments to the database; it is a bit complex but I think it's doable, and if not, I have a plan B that definitely will work at the cost of not exactly replicating the normal attachment configuration. (Specifically; uploading the files themself to the server and adding links to them to the ends of the messages they're attached to.)

Ignore this post, I'm just doing it to test how various BBCode tags here are rendered in HTML. The reason I'm posting it rather than just previewing is firstly, in case there's any rendering difference between various ways of viewing (eg: as a guest vs logged in vs preview), and secondly so I don't have to remake it later if need be.
NOTE: It's likely the more complex tags, I won't "translate" back but will just directly put the HTML into the new database. This will only matter if someone attempts to later edit the post, in which case they'll have to manually fix these tags - if the post remains unedited, the direct HTML will work fine.

If you make a PM backup as ccexplore described, you'll have a backup of your PMs for your own purposes. My first priority is on importing the posts and attachments; after I've got this working I will definitely look at importing PMs from these dumps next.

Site Discussion / Domain Name
« on: December 24, 2014, 04:39:10 AM »
Since it seems unlikely Adam is going to respond to any contact, and thus we probably won't get the www.lemmingsforums.com domain, I've gone ahead and registered a new one for this site.
The address is www.lemmingsforums.net
Due to how domain registration works it may take up to 24 hours for this to become fully functional, so in the meantime, this URL just redirects to the current link (lemforums.neolemmix.com); once it's up and working fully, I'll make that the main URL. Don't worry, this won't break any links; they'll redirect properly (eg: if you were to go to http://lemforums.neolemmix.com/old/index.php?whatever=123, it would redirect you to http://www.lemmingsforums.net/index.php?whatever=123).

Site Discussion / Re: Moderators / Administrators
« on: December 24, 2014, 04:32:00 AM »
At this point, apart from myself we also have geoo and ccexplore as admins, and Clam and Akseli as mods (as well as Simon and Tsyu as moderators only for the Lix and SuperLemmini boards respectively). I've also sent Proxima a PM to ask if he'd be interested in retaining his status as moderator of the Challenges board or even a global mod position; depending on how he responds, I may look for one more moderator. I don't think we need any more admins at this stage; as a precautionary measure all admins will have server access (though at the moment, server access still needs to be set up for geoo and ccexplore, but they already have database access), and on the staff board (which is accessible to all admins and global moderators, but not board-specific moderators) are details of how they can contact me outside the forum if it ever becomes nessecary.
Additionally, if for any reason I'm unable to continue supporting the site at some point (which is unlikely in the near future as the host used is extremely cheap), ownership of the site can be transferred very easily to someone else with at most a couple of minutes interruption to its availability and no need to re-setup anything. If for any reason this can't be done (for example, if I disappear off the face of the earth and can't transfer it), either of the other admins can as a last resort backup the database and download a copy of the files on the server, and reupload them elsewhere without having to lose any data at all. I know this sounds pessimistic, but it's more just a matter of preparing for the worst possible scenarios to minimize hassle.

I quite like the Lemmings 3D one. I wonder if I can make a script to randomly rotate between them, since I don't want to waste the effort you put into the unused ones...
EDIT: Done. I added all of them except the first Star Trek one, since the second one is pretty much the same but with an extra lemming.
