I'm doing grouped updates of all the sections. Section 1 is "Community", so here we go:
Portal
  • Filled in most of the boxes now
Members
  • Fixed times from a previous mis-edit
  • Added sort by clans and groups
Clans (small edits to get the rest of SEN ready for new clan updates)
  • Fixed up displays for the skins
  • Edited it for the ability to join multiple clans
  • Clan description for clan splash now available to edit
  • settings for changing clan tag display
Gatherings
  • Added. The idea for this would be to give such events and news a permanent spot to exist. Joshgt2: Give me better descriptions? Eventually, this will probably be postable to.
Shoutbox
  • Ability to share static pages of the shoutbox
  • Ability to save shouts into a quote and share the link (don't save whispers if you don't want to share them)
Mod Night
  • Mod night number added (and auto updates)
  • Mod night 'mods likely to be played' resets to nothing after mod night ends now
  • Mod night 'come play' invitation now works (gives notice on top of every page for x minutes that mod night is happening)
  • Better mod night information

Hawtness. I'm not sure if this is what you meant by 'Gatherings', but I had an idea for a shoutbox with multiple channels. If the merge is ever to happen and we get many more members, it would be helpful. Basically, there are a maximum of five renamable channels, tabs to switch between channels (and an option to display multiple channels in one tab), and channels are erased and renamed back to 'channel 2' or whatever after 3 hours of no activity.

How do you save shouts?

Gatherings, lol... I couldn't think of a better name. It's basically a spot to post things like "Hey, Sen members are grouping HERE... Come with us." I'll probably add all SEN clans/groups on any type of game or network.

Shout channels is doable, though I don't know how meaningful it is right now. A topic can be made about this specific issue when it is more reasonable to suggest. I've added it to my ideas/suggestions notepad though.

Save shouts, just click on the boxes next to the shout and then when you are done, push save shouts to the right. The system needs a bit of re-working though. I'm going to continue to update the community section probably for the rest of the day before moving on to the next group.

IP, I'm using the Carbonite skin, and the Trigger tag (in the tutorial system) doesn't have a background or a border or anything to really make it stand out. Add some different colors for it, to make the tag prettier :P.

nice updates. The file links work now.
I don't see any "boxes" next to the shouts. Also, how do you whisper?

EDIT: nvm, i see the boxes. but i still don't see where to whisper

Map night shouldn't be every night, that just ensures that it never happens. We need another big friday night!

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
