Well, I am sure that when I went to bed last night that I was green and now I seem to be in the pink, Could that be what you are talking about. And all this time I thought it was the troll drinks. 

If you could good sir, I would love to be my usual sickly shade of green, all this healthy pink is scaring me.

It's not easy being green!

Some guy on another job is mister Green. You're mister Pink!

Not green any more, either. Which isn't that much of a tragedy for me since I googled for "define:munchkinnery" and found my J on green as one of the top ranking images associated with that term. In that light the sickly greenish gold I am sporting now is an improvement.

Edit: Now it is a very nice blue. That's a real improvement. Let's see how long that holds.

Some forums have a feature where there is a button under posters' av that can be clicked to show all their posts in the thread you're reading. Would it be possible to get that feature in here too?

And Brootse, seeing as you ar already familiar with this little trick what say you to featuring how to pull off this site magic in the Forum Tricks - Its Magic Innit thread here in the Inn?

I think that it's done with a PHP function, so it needs to be coded. If you move your pointer on the arrow at the top right corner of a quote, you'll see the command that's passed to the server, ie. find the correct post in the correct thread. And if you move your pointer over someone's av, you'll see their user id. Using the thread and user ids you could make a button that shows a specific users posts in a specific thread. Most of the threads here are quite short, but there have been a few times when I've wanted to use it.

The Magic Innit thread shows you how to put Runes into a post.

I'm having problems editing posts on a mobile device. Specifically, it seems impossible to delete a quote once you've inserted it. You can remove content from within the quote, to the point where it is empty, but that box is there for ever, or until you remember to get back to it on a regular browser.

Same seems to apply to emojis and URL preview boxes.

Does anyone know of a workaround? I think I have a login on the forum software producer's site, I might ask there when I get back from my hols.

Can you edit posts made on your mobile devices later on on a regular computer?

This is a real question - I found myself unable to edit some of my own posts after a while, whereas I was able to insert corrections to necroed posts at other times.

There seems to be a best before date on the ability to edit post, Joerg. After enough time has past, editing is not possible (I am guessing on all medias), and I guess this has something to do with storage.

I'd like to suggest adding an LFG subforum for BRP and Chaosium-family games.  (Looking for group, looking for players.)  Examples on: reddit, rpg.net, enworld, Design Mechanismpeginc.

There's more online gaming now and a lot of games are advertised in more than one place.  I wouldn't expect a forum here to get a ton of traffic, but every outlet helps since BRP is a bit niche.  Seems like good business to me.

I'd add a top-level forum and make it prominent, placing it just above or below the Cult of Chaos forum, for example.  For comparison, I don't remember ever noticing the Alastor's Skull Inn forum before today.

Woah, site looks different! Was there an announcement thread for this? 

There wasn't that I saw.

I did notice mention of an upcoming upgrade that would be hoped to fix a site-search function (in the thread where it was reported broken; which, come to think of it... <exeunt, stage elsethread>).
