Title: Announcements
Post by: coolzeldad on December 14, 2015, 09:14:47 PM
Hey everyone!

First of all, I hope those of you who visit the forum are doing well!

Just so you know, I am not dead but I am in a busy state yet again.

I just want you to know that I am in the first stage of site downsizing, especially the forum because a lot of it is unused and unnecessary to navigate.

However, I am keeping all the old data, just in a form that is read only for now.

I will post announcements here from now on.

Feel free to make topics here without worrying about which section the post should go in.

Have fun!

Yeah, this sucks. We had a good run, but now that people are in school, the servers = dead. Man I miss the good ol' days of rNd. When ZS was populated like a motherfucker.

But either we got bored of GMod and played other games, we left rNd, or got banned. Now rNd is on life support..

:(

I'm still onboard till the end though.

But what if the rNd community wasn't dead??

Post by: ○ Μαρία ○ on December 17, 2015, 05:54:59 PM
The fact that people still are coming here and posting on this thread, shows that it isn't dead. It is as Monorail said, dead when it's dead. When people stop giving a shit.

Hey guys!

I just finished coding the new winter raffle, it's accessible in the announcement on the top left of the forum screen.

(https://randomgs.com/images/holiday_raffle/winter_raffle_location.png)

You'll be prompted to enter in a game you want to vote for, and then click the vote button.

The game appid can be easily found by browsing to the game in the steam app store and copying it from the url.

Hope you guys like it and let me know any weird issues!

Just a question, do you ever think you will reopen any of the servers?  I know zs 2.0 is broken in lua, but is there any way to fix it? I would love to see some of the old community playing together again!

We've already done this several times with initial popularity but it dies down after a while.

Better to just do zs 3.0, possibly have snivy's fas2 weapons in there, with random stats each purchase.

Well it's been two weeks since my last post...

While I've been busy, rest assured that 4 games were selected at random from the suggestions until the funds ran out.

In addition to other prize packs I have, I will be selecting the winners of these games to be announced.... hopefully by this weekend.

So, look forward to that, see you soon!

So I redistributed them as we talked about... sorry again!

Hey guys, quick update on the website.

I've worked on cleaning up a lot of stuff that will let me more easily make changes.

Part of that is that the forum experience should now look nice on your mobile devices.

Let me know if you have any issues  :)

Edit: Disabled video (youtube, etc.) embeds for now as I'm going to do a new html5 implementation of that for: mobile devices, less js/nonsense loading, to avoid insecure flash loading (the only place where it happens on rnd lol), etc...

Edit 2: Implemented YouTube html5 video embedding so you can see videos on mobile devices/no flash requirement for desktops (should now work for most posts - will finish full support soon including on demand loading to reduce load)

Edit 3: I allowed multiple embeds per post and implemented a way to defer loading of actual youtube content so that threads like "Rate That Song Above You" don't waste your bandwidth and beat around your browser for a few minutes everytime a page loads lol. Should be done with youtube stuff now so let me know if you have any issues.
