Sully Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 Hi all, To decrease the amount of admin I've to do I'm going ahead with a project to merge the WarriorGuyver.com PhpBB3 forums (there's 2 there I've to keep up to date to stop spam bots....... etc) to that of the Japan-Legend.com forum. Basically this type of board (IPBoard) is a lot easier to admin and manage. Overall the only changes most of you will notice are the following new sections opening: Inside Section 9: Video Games Forum Below Section 9: WarriorGuyver.com (name of the boxed area) Warrior Guyver Discussion GWOTG Discussion The Basement Will contain archived sections of the board from WG.com that are no longer active. User accounts! If you've accounts on board boards (e.g. like me) these most likely will be merged by default. Note if you changed your name etc for whatever reason and want things merged anyway and the new name to take over please let me know. If you've any questions or concerns please let me know.
Sully Posted August 23, 2016 Author Posted August 23, 2016 I've being putting more behind this idea and in the future the Guyver.Net will also link to this messageboard. The basic idea is that anyone that visits any of the 3 sites I run will find a way here and from here to a Guyver info page. This page will either a) replace the wiki if I can never get it back up or b) Work beside it if I can get it back up so that there is never a lack of content. Note if I can't get the wiki back, I'll need someones help to get the: KAMEN RIDER SUPER SENTAI sections of the Japan Legend website working again and with information fans would find useful.
Sully Posted August 26, 2016 Author Posted August 26, 2016 FYI this will be going ahead this weekend. There will be possible down time and the board may look messy until the admins tidy it up after the two other message boards are imported here.
ROUGE Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Huh? I'm still new here but basically you're an admin elsewhere and wish to combine the other sites or allow users to move between each freely, I assume. Among other things like new sections and whatnot. But I am not familiar with those other websites. Are they other Guyver forum pages or something?
Sully Posted August 26, 2016 Author Posted August 26, 2016 I own 3 Guyver website. Japan-Legend.com (this site) which was started by Jess and given to me to run last year. TheGuyver.Net that site will become a Guyver info page, hopefully with the info from the Guyver Wiki that used to be on Japan Legend but has since being disabled. Japan-Legend.com originally was located here. WarriorGuyver.com my original Guyver website I've being running since 1998. It has an older messageboard but that website is more centered around Guyver fan-Fiction than official Guyver stuff. As I run all 3 websites I want to both improve things and lesson the amount of admin I do. So having one super messageboard is a lot easier than 3 which all need to be kept up to date so they don't fall over to hackers / spam bots.
Sully Posted August 28, 2016 Author Posted August 28, 2016 Progress report -> It's worked. Though not before I pressed a button 4 times that should have only being pressed once. So at the moment the messageboard is processing my old board 4 times..... So you guys / gals won't see the end result probably for a few days. For those that were a member of the OLD WG.com forums you'll either find that you've an old account you long since lost the email address of or that your current JL messageboard account now has messages in it from over 10 years ago. Given that the board is still converting it'll be next weekend most likely before a lot of the mess is tidied up. In the mean time to the public members of the board chances are you'll not notice much difference. Once the conversions are finished from the first forums merger there will be permission changes happening on the forum so things tidy up and are usuable for Staff from both sites.
Sully Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 Part 1 of this is done. The older archived forum is now merged with this board (hence why some new sections to this board have posts in them from 2004 ). Now to merge up the second and most up to date forum from WG.com and to go from there.
Sully Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 Finished the merger and all the 3 boards are now one and the old Guyvers smiles transferred as well!!! whoho 1

Bio-Boosted Dude Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Blimey, that thread of Jess' talking about a 'new guyver form' is surreal to read. I wasn't part of the GB when it first started out (I think I joined around 2007) but to think it was all 12 years ago.
ROUGE Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Awesomeness! I am totally digging the new Guyver emotes. Thank you. Btw who is this???
Sully Posted September 2, 2016 Author Posted September 2, 2016 It comes the message board that was on http://warriorguyver.com/ my fan-fiction character Warrior Guyver. Those emotes were made by Matt Bellamy.
