CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | nah riel |
Riel_Fury | PAYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW |
W02_Sheepy | i saw your posts on comnet |
| * GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw flips the switch marked "Smoke and Mirrors" and suddenly things look professional around here |
Kadann | Go ahead Talon |
Kadann | Forgot it was daylight savings time |
| * GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw passes the mic to Kad |
Kadann | Ok....Welcome again to another Vast Empire meeting |
Kadann | Forgot it was daylight savings time, as here in AZ, we don't have it |
Kadann | Been working on getting the domain switched over to the new server |
Kadann | I am very close to completion |
Kadann | only a few minor tweeks here and there |
Kadann | I am thinking I will be able to start transfering the DNS later tonight |
Kadann | that means that sometime tomorrow, we'll be on the new server |
Kadann | there may be a few things that aren't working, so send me a note if you see anything |
Kadann | I'll give 50K to anyone who finds things not working |
Kadann | Only to the first person who notices it though |
Kadann | Fury, you have the army report today? |
MG_Fury | Sure thing |
MG_Fury | After a fashion anyway |
MG_Fury | This week some more behind the scenes discussion on ways to keep you all active |
MG_Fury | More on that in a couple of weeks but basically we want you to have ready access to some form of leadership figure at almost all times. |
MG_Fury | That way you can't say no one was around to ask questions of when you sit around idle. |
MG_Fury | Double negative. I should be banished to Alaska for my impudence. |
MG_Fury | Anyways... |
MG_Fury | I see a squad story lurching along. Get it moving. |
MG_Fury | I also know that another squad...at least one...is considering another story. I like the sound of that |
MG_Fury | You may be noticing some cleaning of the ranks. We are running AWOL and activity checks and need to clean out the dead weight. |
MG_Fury | The problem is, we have nothing to fill those holes in. If you can find anyone to do so, now is the time to try. |
MG_Fury | And if anyone has any ideas on how to get activity and recruitment up, my door is usually open to those types of discussions. |
MG_Fury | By "door" I mean, post it on comnet and let's all talk about it in the open. |
MG_Fury | I'd like to see some regular squad reports coming in from every squad. Let's make it a goal, shall we? |
MG_Fury | I'd like to say I have been really productive lately, but that would be a lie. |
MG_Fury | RL adventures of the expensive kind have taken up a lot of my time. |
MG_Fury | I should have a couple productive weeks ahead of me though. |
MG_Fury | That is all for this week. |
GM-Kadann | Thank you Fury |
GM-Kadann | On another note |
GM-Kadann | With this new server, all members who have a @vastempire.com email address will need to change their outgoing mail servers to mail.vastempire.com |
GM-Kadann | change this when the server changes |
GM-Kadann | both incoming and outgoing will be the same |
GM-Kadann | Another thing with the new server..... |
GM-Kadann | they offer unlimited ftp accounts, but they are restrictive as to what directories you can upload to |
GM-Kadann | So, I am going to write a ftp program for those members who have ftp access to the domain |
GM-Kadann | so they can upload/change their pages |
GM-Kadann | bear with me while i get this up and going |
GM-Kadann | i will open the domain before i start writting this |
GM-Kadann | if you need some changes, send them to me or someone else that has ftp access |
GM-Kadann | Anyone have the navy report today? |
CAP_WM|2LT_PM | i have something |
GM-Kadann | Ok...go ahead |
CAP_WM|2LT_PM | allright, short note. I got now finally the last applications for the Kaph SC position, till the next meeting i grap them for a personal talk that we can anounce the new SC at the next Meeting |
CAP_WM|2LT_PM | thats all. besides, go out and recruit ! |
GM-Kadann | Thank you Warmaker |
GM-Kadann | Swomz, you have something to add? |
MG_Fury | gah |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | oh |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | hi |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | Well, for Navy members |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | I have some cash to burn and we are running low on members |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | so I will give 10k for every member recruited that stays with us for a month or longer |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | also |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | For World of War, if you aren't playing it, you should |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | I am not sure exactly what the VE stuff is right now...so maybe Fury can help you with that |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | Finally, we had a VE RP going, it is still up |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | if anyone is interested, email me |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | and I am spent... |
GM-Kadann | Thank you Swomz |
CPLSwomzCRWJacenFESSGMSwomz | no prob |
GM-Kadann | Talon, you have something to report? |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | I do. Thanks. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | First off is the poll that's been up on the domain for a couple of weeks now. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | It offers your opinion (for once) to the High Council as to what we should do with the change of servers and domain names. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | You've all voted to keep ComNet named ComNet. You got it. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | When the changes go through, ComNet's address will be http://comnet.imperialnetwork.com/ How purty is that? :D |
| * GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw winces and continues |
| * MG_Fury leads the OOOOOO and AAAAAAHHHHHH chorus |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | That's all in that direction. Two more to go. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | Chapter 8 is constantly being changed and I think we're finally pinning it down. I know we've been saying that for a while, but I've been having a hard time with this one. Just bear with us and you'll enjoy the results. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | and finally, I had the surprising pleasure of roleplaying with two retired memebers last night (first RP) and enjoyed it. I will be doing what I can to help with the setup and playing. I'm going to ask Sess to show me the ropes of GMing so that we can get this going again. |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | That's all from me today. |
GM-Kadann | Thank you Talon |
GM-Kadann | Associated to the domain change, there will be some down time |
GN_KPX_CEO_Talon|COM_CE_Claw | Boo! Hiss! |
GM-Kadann | The down time will be as long as it takes me to get the database all uploaded to the new server |
GM-Kadann | shh |
GM-Kadann | so, hopefully, it will be a few hours |
GM-Kadann | Once I get everything up and running, I'll send out the urls so everyone can visit the new pages |
GM-Kadann | With that, this meeting is over |
