Updates for SeptemberWell Hello there! Been quite a while since we last had one of these. Overall counting away certain particular happenings FeralHeart and it's site has been a very calm place around updates and changes done lately. However there has been some stuff going on, and there's more interesting things coming up soon so it would be nothing but justified to try to catch up for some lost time on these.
Let's get started shall we.
Board & Site changesThere's been several board changes going on, one of these is that the Offtopic roleplay section has been quite modified and it now Holds 3 Child boards known as "
Animal Roleplay", "
Human Roleplay" & "
Misc Roleplay". Now of course we are a site and forum aimed towards FeralHeart as our main focus, but due to spiking activity in these boards and the need from users spending time in there these boards have been added to give some more structure and help those using THIS very forum to roleplay having an easier time locating the type of threads or roleplay they are after. For this section WhiteLightHeart has also provided a nice sticky explaining the new boards and what sort of content it should hold, overall a much more cleaner place than just one board holding all of our Offtopic roleplays.
We are also happy to mention here for those that haven't noticed already by themselves seeing the "Sp" option when posting a thread, we now have a "spoiler" function on the SMF forum. This has been suggested and discussed a few times during this forums existence and for you that wanted one, well here it is! Just to click the button below and it will explain how it works for those who're unfamiliar with how this spoiler function works.
New stuff
All the other codes should work fine within this one, which means pictures and other stuff should show up just fine.
This will give users the chance to narrow down posts and let users see content only when they choose to, it can be for creations, it can be for roleplays, or in general it can be anything that could be new and interesting
The code is fairly basic
[spoiler][/spoiler]And can be found to your left above the smileys.
You can also set a title for it
[Spoiler=New stuff][/spoiler]But even nest spoilers within each other.

Going onto roleplay boards again we have also modified the FeralHeart Roleplay Section here on the boards. The most drastic change is really that the whole board "
Free For All" has been removed completely. The reason of this was really that users were not following the actual guidelines when posting or just not quite understanding the concept of it, this left us with a board that lost it's purpose and instead now we will be focusing on two boards only which is the Group board and Group advertising board. We will most likely end up doing some sort of modification on the Roleplay Board sticky in a short future.
If you haven't seen the post in this very news section regarding the Preset contest already, we are currently having some issues keeping it running smoothly and well so it has been put on hold for now until it can be taken care of properly. Hopefully it will not be too long until we will be able to see it back up and running but we do hope it's understandable non the less. If you wish to read more in detail regarding this click
here.
Some months back we posted a notice here in the news section regarding account usage
(IMPORTANT NOTICE (Regarding Account Usage). Since this thread is, and still remains relevant towards users actions and choices they make with their accounts or accounts bump into, the thread mentioned above has been moved into the "Rules & Official Information" board. If you haven't read this already we strongly recommend you to do so. The game rules has also been slightly modified since a while back to put some light on the matter of account usage around the game in general.
Our staff page here on the site linked below the banner will be undergoing some changes in the upcoming times and might not look that pretty as things are being modified and structured up again. We will try to keep active and online staff listed so both new and old players will be able to click and find the information or contact they need there never the less. Chances are also that more than just the staff page will receive some changes and addition when it comes to the site links provided under the banner but we will see when or how this will take place as time goes on.
People in this community enjoy sharing their events and activites, make up new things to do with new or old friends really that they meet in FeralHeart. In the past users have been posting threads a little bit here and there around the Forum regarding activities such as livestreams or ingame events. In an attempt to make the boards less cluttered but also to make a go-to place for these sort of things we now have a completely new board in the offtopic section called
Community Activities Hub. This board should make everything a bit more structured and fun for everyone so if you have anything fun you wish to structure up or do with players in the game or around this site, don't be afraid to take use of it.
We have also, with the help of Kiraralove and microfloof here on the forum, added two new translations of the FH game rules in Italian and Romanian. This is of course a rather good thing and we thank you two for providing this and hope those who need translations in these languages will take use of the new posts. As always, if you guys want to translate the FH rules into a language that isn't already translated it's not harder than to fire off a PM to us and we can get it up there sooner than you know it.
Events & kewl sturfNow we do have quite a lot to mention here as well, especially when it comes to the MOTS we have and had. Since we haven't posted any news update post I really do believe it wouldn't be more than right to also mention the Spring MOTS along with the Summer MOTS we have now. So lets start out with what we missed mentioned here. Big and late congratulations to the Spring MOTS users.
~Shallow~,
BouncyLion101,
Feareh. You guys are still rocking.
The Summer MOTS However~Lady_Alizarin,
Thierry,
Hugrf. Congratulations on becoming the Summer MOTS, we are happy to have you guys around being a nice face in our everyday around FeralHeart. Keep it up. Also don't forget Autumn MOTS is just around the corner!
We got fun stuff coming up for you lots very soon and if you have no clue what it is about then keep on reading. Our closest upcoming event here around FeralHeart.
FeralHeart Official Roleplay Day (FHORD)! If you haven't clicked and read the thread like a maniac just yet, this event is something that last for a complete day of 24hours. The point is really to encourage roleplaying inside of the game and create a more interesting gameplay experience in FeralHeart. All the information regarding this event can be found inside of the thread/link provided above. We also would appreciate any sort of help possible regarding advertising for this event, journals or blogg posts, signatures here on the forum or other forums, any help is welcome to make this really special. Depending on how this event turns out we might make this a standard around our community and a common thing.
We are not quite done yet with the events, but as you know and feel that the Autumn times are here, what usually comes with it every year is an official Halloween party hosted for all our players, a time to meet up and show off your scary presets, listen to music or just do whatever a feral can around here during Halloween times. Of course we want as many to join and the information thread is already up here on the forum for you to look over. It will be held the weekend right before Halloween and of course things like times and preset submission and eventually party map will be explained in the thread provided below!
http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=39307.msg545736#msg545736Side noteOn a side note this time around we wish to mention that we had an MIT around for a while now, and this MIT is no one else but our DoctorFlob! Flob has been nothing but helpful around the game and site and we will see where things will move on from here. Big nuzzle to them!
With more fun things though to some less fun. As it is no secret by watching the official staff list here it has become a bit thin lately. Many of our staff is currently on a break from FeralHeart due to other activities or duties they might have in their lives. So with this said, Delay, Wolffox, Crin & Ramine is currently not listed as active and current staff. Now nothing says that this they will leave permanently but first things first in this case and we hope that they will find their way back to us sooner or later as staff. If this wouldn't be the case however we all appreciate the dedication and time spent helping around the game and community since it is a big task and means heaps to some of us if not all, not to mention that everyone deserve a break once in a while.
Now we do have many friendly and hard working faces in this community so of course things will keep on rolling here. I personally hope to see you guys on FHORD and the Halloween event coming soon and big sorries for being rather quiet over the summer when it comes to these updates. We will see when next one comes around.
Thank you for reading and stay awesome! Redlinelies outz~
