Forum updates.

Sorry for the unscheduled downtime yesterday and this morning.

This down time was to allow us to merge the user databases from all of the RunUO network sites (RunUO (www.runuo.com), ConnectUO (www.connectuo.com), UOGamers: Hybrid (www.uogamers.com), UOGamers: Demise (www.uodemise.com), UOGamers: Divinity (www.uodivinity.com)) into one central database.

Among other benefits, this will allow you to use the same login information on any and all of these RunUO Network websites, and will allow you to have the same Private Message Inbox on all of those forums.

Many users had an account on more than one of our websites, we have attempted to merge users accounts from all of the websites as follows:
  • Accounts with the same password OR the same E-mail address were merged into the existing higher-priority account (see priorities below).
  • If the password and E-mail address were different then the lower priority account's username now has a string appended to the end of it specifying where the account originated. Example: If you had registered "Superman" on UOGamers: Divinity's forums but someone else had registered "Superman" on RunUO.com (or you had registered it with a different password and e-mail address) then the RunUO.com account has remained unchanged and your UOGamers: Divinity username is now "Superman-divinity".
  • The suffixes are as follows:
    • UOGamers: Hybrid = "-hybrid"
    • UOGamers: Demise = "-demise"
    • UOGamers: Divinity = "-divinity"
    • ConnectUO = "-cuo"
  • The priority for each of the websites is: RunUO > Hybrid > Demise > Divinity > ConnectUO
  • If you are having trouble logging in to one of the websites, try appending one of these suffixes to your username.

There are no expected issues from these changes, but please keep an eye out for any odd forum behavior and report anything that you find.

Thank you for your continued support,
~The RunUO Network Staff

Ryan talked about doing this for like over a year, I remember a post awhile back on invision power service's support forum asking about a feature they had made public, said feature is not finished ( they have a habit of making their new projects known to early ).

I think there actually is a news post about his plans to merge the databases, but I sometimes merge private conversations so who knows. I am just shocked it happen, and this means alot can happen, just don't get banned from UO Gamers :)
 
damn it. See I was trying to phase out the Anti-Basic name cuz someone on another board I goto had it. So all the others I registered as Nar Matteru. Being that I registered here first, is my Nar Matteru on connectuo changed to Anti-Basic or do I get both now?

I can merge them all.

I'm glad you got it all back up and running, to be honest I felt a bit lost yesterday without the forums to read. RunUO has become a part of me that I honestly care for and my day isn't right without it.

Great work as always!! Thanks for getting it back up and running.

:D :D :D

Not exactly a forum issue .. but on the main page I'v been getting the text overlayed on top of itself using Firefox .. its fine if i use IE.

Its like the main body of text layout is mixed up and 2 lines of text appear one over the other.. when i checked it in Internet Explorer the text layout was normal.

It only happens on the main RunUo page though nowhere else.
