A note to those affected by the archival bug

[Dio]

As many of you know, we have been fighting the old forum software since before the server move, especially the archiving system.  There was a bug in the system that caused data loss in some old threads. As a result, some older character applications no longer exist, even if the character is still in play and the player is active in the community.  After some discussion we have worked out a bit of book keeping policy for this problem.

 

Let me make this clear from the start: your characters will not be unapproved or taken away for lack of application.  This announcement is simply to provide a pathway to rebuild an old application without having to submit to the entire applications process again.  This process is optional.  If you do not wish to build a new character sheet for your character, that's okay, too.

 

The process will be as follows:

1. If you have a character who was affected by the archival bug (ie: lost application data), you may create a new application for that character using our current application form.


2. At the top of the application form, please link to the damaged application thread for that character so we can verify that this is a character you own and that you were a victim of the archival bug.


3. RPH will verify your information and mark the application for proper sorting once again.


4. Now you have a restored reference sheet for your prized RP character!

As usual, if you see any bugs or glitches, please report them to the staff via PM or email at Canterlot.Guards (at) gmail.com!

 

Thanks for sticking with us through everything thick and thin, everypony!  You guys are what make this community great!
