I copied what you wrote and PM'd it to myself so I will have it as a reminder (dont see how to bookmark that post, so figured that would work).
Thanks again, hope I meet your expectations.

Question: do all new posts made to the SEE mod forums get sent in email or just the subscribed threads (or subscribed forums). Just looking for a way to make sure I stay on top of anyone posting on here with a need in this area.

Thanks again! Feels good to see the SEE team quite active once again!

Here's looking forward to the first post by Sul after his time away

[Nazgûl]

Nah, it all works as usual: you only get mail from those threads that you subscribe to. But don't worry, when things get rollin we'll just post a note on how often you plan on poppin in there. Say, twice a week for instance (or whatever you want), and that way noone can shout about not getting help more often. It's important to keep all things away from "musts". I mean, if you show up several times a day trying to help ppl (assuming that the next beta will make these forums as crazy as they once was) it could soon overflow your motivation and ppl might get spoiled. You're not supposed to do it for them, but merely help them on the right path by clarifying the already existing and quite thurough instructions

Before you, Clonecommand had this position. He was (is?) a very nice young man and he was a great asset to this mod by taking care of all things like that. But eventually he tried to develop his own solutions and variations (due to all the n00bs that simply wouldn't read the instructions carefully) and the whole matter of installing this mod grew into an redicilously enormous project of its own. That - we don't want... hehe

Anyway, we seem to be on top of most things now, so all we need now is to hear what Sûl's next move will be... =p

[av8r]

I will stay on top of the calls for help. I was thinking of replying within minutes, at most hours, not days so hopefully will keep people happy.

And as you say in so many words, no need to recreate the wheel. It's all there, sometimes folks (like myself included when I first got the SEE Mod) just need a little *nudge* in the right direction

I will bookmark the subforums to make it easy to check since I cant "subscribe" to the sub forum itself.

Crack the whip if I slack off LOL Actually, my 12 yr old son is so stoked at the news of this, he will probably check the forum for me several times a day and "remind" me if theres anything new LOL Oh well, it'll keep him (and me) out of trouble.

Thanks Nazgul

-Aye, I remember reading over some of the posts he put on the SEE forums. The way you wrote that makes it sound like he was Smeagol in possesion of the one ring, though... a man who got overly excited about the power he had been given and went eeeeever so slightly down the wrong path and ended up putting the mod in danger. But hey, I'm sure av8r will do fine in his new position! Anyway, he's acted decently towards me, (and even though I'd act decently towards anyone...) I'll act decently towards him and support him in what he has to do in any way I can.
By the way Naz, I made another advancement in trying to bond units in BFME II, I'll post the news in it's respected thread though, If you don't mind. And I hope all that stuff I tried to write last time trying to explain how to do it all wasn't too much for you to read, I feel bad about writing all that now, I just can't think of a way to edit it all and still help other people in the community understand what I'm trying to do.

Anyway, we seem to be on top of most things now, so all we need now is to hear what Sûl's next move will be... =p

-Well, HOPEFULLY It'll be a move towards coming back to SEE (hell, you wouldn't believe the argument I've been having in that blasted 'Ban the Person Above You' Spam topic over how people don't play BFME II anymore and how SEE is dying and how everything rests on Sul's shoulders... nobody knows what it's like to make a mod for a game, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication! I seem to be the only one fighting to argue that SEE will survive it's time of trial... at least I'm arguing for what I believe to be a worthy cause...) but really, I'm not going to put him under any pressure as a) I have no right to, and why would I and b) I know what it's like to have times in your life when you seriously just don't want to go on the internet for a while and you just want to sort your own life out, I had that once with the Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis modding team. (I made them a full-blown mod, a complete reconversion into something along the lines of the Dino Crisis game and they've deleted it all just because I haven't been on the site for a while... people on this site don't have enough modding products to s**t about like that with people, that's what I like about SEE, everything counts and everything is appreciated...)
And finally...

Dr. Kirk, pleased to "meet" you! See you in the Beta test area, for certain!

Pleased to meet you too, it's good when people notice you and are polite. I'll hope to see you in the Beta testing area as well, I've already spotted a few problems...
Like being able to spawn two Smaugs on one team...
...but I like that bug! Naz, don't remove that bug having those two Smaugs owns!

That's all from me.

I haven't seen you active a a couple of days Kirk... you're still up for Beta Testing 4.6?
I just wanna check one more time before I promote your status...

Also, I'd like you to remove the "Contributor" banner. At least for now, since you're not really a Contributor yet. All official Contributors are listed in post #1, and it takes some hefty donations to carry that banner


EDIT:
Two new banners pposted... first up is the Coder-banner which you hopefully can wear soon Kirk
The other one is the which is a special banner for Sûlherokhh, Robnkarla and Mordor Slayer!
You don't "have" to wear them off course, but you all earned them

New banner...



- LAURI

[Nazgûl]

New banner for Jonasking...

[Nazgûl]

New and polished SEE Banner...



Adress: http://see.the3rdage...Banner_2008.jpg

*updating post #1 with this banner* =)

[Mordor Slayer]

Nice work! The text under S.E.E. seems a bit too small though.

[Nazgûl]

Yeah but it's not really meant to be read at this size. It's more of a graphical thing, like a base for the logo. But I'll see if I can increase it a bit and see how it looks.

I will update all Team banners as well, like I did with mine. A more clean look...

[Nazgûl]

All banners updated with the new (more subtle) look! =)
Those of you who do not link to your banner here at T3A, should do so

[Nazgûl]

I'm listening... Just one little Off Topic thing

Wouldn't your sig look a bit better adjusted like this?

[Anarion son of Eldarion]

It would and with a player/fan thing too and a lore master one. Have you got those?

[Anarion son of Eldarion]

Haha. I'll try see if i can get that sorted.

[Nazgûl]

*more Off Topic*

You'll find all current banners HERE!
I have no Lore Master atm, and I know to little about you yet

Edited by Nazgûl, 28 September 2008 - 12:00 PM.

[Anarion son of Eldarion]

Yeah thanks i looked before you said. I'm confused. Not that i'm funny but why and what do you want to know? Sorry i probably should know but no i don't know. haha

[Nazgûl]

I never accept anyone in the Team that I don't "know" Meaning I have to know about their activity and personality AND particular skills that would fit the team in one way or another. I recently made an exception from this and "hired" a Coder, that proved to be useless. The work of promoting and handing out passwords for staff forums, access to private Betas and all that is rather unnescassary work unless I know for sure that the person can contribute with something useful. Or I'll have to undo everything I've given them. I'm not saying you're not good at the Lore, or that we don't need Lore guys, but there are guys here that I've seen and talked to for months that have that skill too. Some of them are already in team as Beta Testers and such. So, before I take anoyne else on board with a position like that, I have to know more about them, and evaluate the need for it. So far you're just a new Member in our forums But you seem interested and dedicated. Stick around and we'll see what happens

[Anarion son of Eldarion]

Oh. For being part of the SEE team. OK sorry didn't have such lofty ambitions. Well if there is anything you want researched movies or books or anything else and you want someone to do the legwork send me a mail specifying what you want and need and i'll do it. OK shot i'll look in again tomorrow.

[Nazgûl]

Ok, thanks

[Nazgûl]

*UPDATE*

It's with a GREAT pleasure and honour that I can welcome SÛLHEROKHH back to the SEE Team...
Sûl will start off "gently" this time as AI Coder, and we'll see where he wants to go from there. His former position as Head Coder is naturally always open to him.

Secondly I'd like for all you Fans and Players to note that the great RADSPAKR has joined the team as a Coder. Rad will primarily fill in, where I "left off" after I burned out a bit last summer and fall, doing the EvilMen faction... Rad is a master of coding BFME1, but I have high hopes he will have no major problems doing a lot of needed things for SEE, even if SEE is BFME2 based

Myself, I will only do minor coding such as balancing, which is a very important part of SEE though. Other than that, I will once more concentrate on organizing the team efforts and the continued production as well as doing all art, skins and textures needed =)

Thirdly, I want to promote one of my best Beta Testers to official Production Staff section with the title of Modeler: TTANDCHOTMAIL, aka "TT"! He has proven him self to have skills at the same level of Digi_Byte's fantastic structure models...


Welcome guys! And may 2009 be the big year of SEE's return to production!
