Eupedia Forum Migration

[thomas]

Dear members,

I would like to inform you that in the course of this week we are going to migrate all fora and subfora related to Europe to the Eupedia forum on our new server. This move requires us to temporarily lock all fora concerned in order to back up the database and to prevent new posts and topics.

Once the database has been imported to the new server all JREF members will be able to participate in Euro-related discussions on eupedia.com using the same credentials as on JREF.

Thanks for your patience.

all JREF members will be able to participate in Euro-related discussions on eupedia.com using the same credentials as on JREF then .

Thanks for the notice Thomas ! I'll keep a watch on it, and hope for the best--all the while sending my best wishes.

I still have some concerns, such as if there will then be two 'Introduction' foras and some little things like that, but will just wait to see what transpires.

Thanks for all the hard and surely involved work !! 窶堋ｶ窶堙｡ﾂ、窶堙懌?堋ｽ窶堙?!

I wonder when can we post on the threads in the Europe forum section?

I tried to post just then but they was no "post reply" icon?

 

[Maciamo]

Here you go, I have finished the set up of the new forum on eupedia.com

 

[Maciamo]

IMPORTANT NOTICE :

Now that Eupedia has its own separate forum, I have deleted all the threads and posts in the Europe Forum on JREF (including Linguistics and Religion & Philosophy). Therefore, all users who had ever posted in these subforums will see their post count and reputation points diminished. (Don't worry, it isn't lost, all has been kept on the Eupedia Forum).

 

[Mars Man]

OK...I'll check it all out, and will give it all my best wishes and efforts and love. I do hope for a fair and well balance, democratically-like run and operated forum there as well. I hope to give as postitive and active an input into as I can.

Thanks for all the hard work, and all, and keep it up !! MM

 

[Maciamo]

From now one, all the General Discussion (Opinions, Serious Discussion, Religion & Philosophy, Linguistics...) will take place on Eupedia, so that JREF can concentrate as much on Japan as possible (which is why we split the forum in two). Thank you for your comprehension and cooperation.

Thank you both, Maciamo and Thomas !!!
I don't even mind the name never returning to Japanese Reference as long as the appropriate content is here to stay. :sing:

 

[Elizabeth]

This may not be the appropriate place but the immigration/passport thread for instance isn't any longer in American Affairs (I only found it through a search)....So did everything make it safely over to the other side or has there been some shifting in the process, or maybe the transfer is still a work in progress :?

 

[Maciamo]

I moved a few threads related to Japan to the All Things Japanese forum. I think that the thread you are referring to is still in the old American Affairs subforum which I haven't deleted yet, but is still searchable (though closed to posting).

Thanks Maciamo for doing it so quick, I visited the forum late last night and I noticed you have a different avatar from here, I tried to give myself a different avatar too but it didn't work. I wonder why?

Also may I make some suggestions to the list of choices of avatars in the Eupedia forum? Would you mind to put Asterix and Tin Tin characters in there?

That's actually a great idea. Thanks !

Btw, I don't know why you can't change your avatar. Did you pick one from the list or uploaded one ?

I tried to pick one of my own, but it said something like invalid, then when I returned to the forum I was still with the avatar I picked for the Japanese forum.


I think I can change my avatar in the Japan forum, but I want to have a different avatar in the Eupedia forum, like you, is that possible?

 

[Maciamo]

Could be that the new avatars are too big. I will change the permissions. Try again to see if it works now.

I have tried just then it is written invalid file.

But this time I notice I need to re-log into the Japan forum to post in here.

 

[Maciamo]

I told Thomas about this, but he probably won't be able to look at it for a week.

Thanks for your assistance, I can wait. So when would you put up Asterix and Tin Tin characters in the EU Avatar list?

 

[Maciamo]

So when would you put up Asterix and Tin Tin characters in the EU Avatar list?

I did so yesterday already. I also added other Franco-Belgian comics.

 

[Tokis-Phoenix]

I tried posting on some threads in the general topics section, i now cannot because i am not a member of the europe forum, when will i be able to post on it or will i have to sign up to another forum?
The other thing is, isn't it a bit pointless banning certain members on here when they can interact with this forum none the less in the general topics section?

You should be a member of the Eupedia forum too. Didn't you forget to login ? Otherwise just sign up again.

I can log in now.
What about banned members though? I noticed for example SVF got banned a little while ago, but he can still access this forum via the general topics section- sorta defeats the point of banning in the first place considering thats where he spent half his time anyways etc.

Edit, he is unbanned in Eupedia!
