I'm back!
|
|
Billy will be offline Monday April 28 thru Friday May 2. Everyone listed on the member listing as a staff member can do most things members generally ask Billy to fix/update, and staff members can approve pending board accounts, so PM/email the other staff while Billy's away and things should still get done. See you all in a week!

RS has reopened joining!
|
|
We are very close to reopening! I'm testing the new staff control panel with this post!
|
|
Alright, so the bank is done, the registry is done, establishments are done, landlord is half way there. Once the landlord is finished, the show results database is transfered over and the staff control panel is transfered & updated, we will officially re-open!
After we re-open, I still have lots of projects planned, including messaging, university and more! Check out the community for more details on that, and to put your suggestions in!
|
|
Alright, so it's been a while since someone actually posted something here! We haven't been sleeping, I promise!
Homework has slowed renovations down considerably, but I do entirely intend to finish the new coding as soon as possible! Current members have access to creditless horse & dog registration (PM me if you need the link again!)
No one can login to the main site right now, please don't panic! You'll be able to when the renovations are complete. If you could login, here's what's complete & incomplete:
-Registry is 90% complete (exports & search incomplete)
-Establishments Section is 50% complete (my establishments/approval incomplete)
-Bank is incomplete
-New Landlord is incomplete
-All other areas are complete

RS is being renovated! When the game "reopens," the following are new things you can expect: - Cats (Domestic, not exotic), Domestic Cattle, Donkeys & Mules/Hinnies, Zebras & Zorses, Goats, Sheep, Llama & Alpaca and Pigs will now be accepted
- Credits! General Credits for creation & imports, Adoption Credits for adoptions, and RevCredits [Credits earned based on activity, which may be traded for GCs & ACs]
- A fully-operational FAQ
- So much more open to guests!
- On site messaging, similar to PMs, which may be used by guests & members alike to contact registered members
- A place to track show records & points in the registry (Plus, the registry will automatically calculate titles based on recorded points!)
- ...and more!
The rules are being rewritten now to accommodate these additions. Currently existing members may continue or restart (see my post on the community for details) and unclaimed animals in the old registry will be dealt with appropriately. To view the old registry, go here: Old Guest Portal

RS is getting an overhaul! All members please read and reply to the announcement on the forum.
|
|
Well, that didn't take nearly as long as I expected! I got a new laptop, so I'm back online. Fortunately all the RS records were on my flash drive, so we still have a back up. Unfortunately, all my graphics stuff is lost. I have the softwear, but the pictures are gone *tear* so there will be no visual updates to the website on the current layout.
|
|
Bad news, my computer died! I'll be able to borrow my Mom's from time to time, but until I either get mine fixed or replaced, my online time will be extremely limited and I will NOT be updating any websites.
|
|
Our next promotional auction is here! Check it out on the boards.
|
|
Done! Phase 1 (the website) is complete. Phase 2 (the forum) will happen when our graphics contest ends. Phase 3 (creation credits & fees) will happen whenever I feel like modifying the registry code!
|
|
Renovations are almost done! *Gasp* Already? Yup! I should be doing homework, shh!
|
|
We are undergoing renovations! Viewing the registry, establishments, etc. is still possible through the "View Portal," and the bank is still online. Registration of animals, establishments, etc. is temporarily unavailable. Create/Breed/etc. as usual, just don't forget to submit them to the database when we're all back up!
|
|
Forum Graphics Contest on now! Check it out!
|
|
Our next promotion auction will be happening soon! Please go to the sale board and let us know what you're looking for!
|
|
Guests (anyone not logged in) may now view our database information, including the registry, our establishments and our show results, and search the registry & show results. We also have a board that is open to guest posting to allow all sim buy backs holders to easily notify the staff that they have reclaimed animals so that we can export them from the registry. This addition was inspired by a discussion on the all sim arena, and I'd like to thank Calista & Pia for their public thoughts.
|
|
A bit late, yes, but I just want to make sure everyone knows that they got paid on the 1st and that you should check your activity points so you get the biggest paycheck you can get! I looked mine up and found I had about 450 points! It's much worth it, if you ask me! So go for it!
|
|
You MUST wait to enter a show until it's approved. If you are staff, you may approve your own show. Add the show to the calendar & make sure there are no conflicts. Reply with "Approved". All entries between the Original post & the 'Approved' post WILL be deleted!
This effective immediately
|
|
We have been keeping track of new joinees as well as old inactive members. All members who joined prior to August 27th who have not signed the activity check thread by Midnight Padicific on Saturday September 1st (tomorrow - 3am Sept 2nd for Eastern) will be deleted and their animals sent to the HS.
|
|
Well I felt like I should post this as I am dean... Anyways, I have started th RS University on the board. I am hoping to finish tests once I get my home computer back and get it running again. I am going to transfer the paid students to these boards, but if you enrolled and didnt get a test finished but paid, you will be refunded. Just talk to me about it. If you enrolled but didnt get a reply, then you will have to enroll again. Hm.... I think that is all!
|

- Activity Check ends Saturday! I will be deleting the remaining inactive account immediately late Saturday night/early Sunday morning.
- Our poll to incorporate registerable cats, cattle and other farm animals has been voted down. Such animals may be listed on your stable & kennel websites but may not be registered, shown or bred for profit. Please also note that donkeys & mules are, however, permitted to be registered in the horse category.
- We now have a role play board for those interested! Please note that this area is for role playing as people, not as animals.
|
|
We've bumped the ending date of the activity check back to September 1, 2007, as opposed to September 15, 2007.
|
|
All current members and those who join by September 10th will be expected to sign the activity check thread on the forum. The Activity check ends September 15th. All member who fail to post on the activity check thread by the 15th will be removed from the website, and their animals put up for adoption.
|
|
looking to adopt horses or dogs? Now is the time! I've just personally gone through our registry and done a little cleaning, and we now have a total of 73 animals occupying the Humane Society. Remember, adoptions are $1,000/animal.
|
|
I'm very sorry that it took so long for me to get back, but I'm back! I don't know where to start, so please let me know what desperately needs to be done! Thanks to those of you who stuck around during my month-long inactivity!
|
|
I'm moving! I won't have internet July 20th-22nd.
|
|
There's a 16-horse auction going on as a pre-opening promotion for the Revolution Warmblood Society! Bidding ends July 2nd.
|
|
RS Construction opened its doors today! You may now purchase facilities and assign them to your different establishments.
|
|
Don't be scared! lol. I just thoughts I'd put a note out. Most antivirus and antispam programs such as Norton, as well as google itself in some areas, block access to any page or image with "banner" in the path (URL). Please do NOT name your layout images banner, as half of us can't see them otherwise! Thanks!
|
|
Is here! For the time being, please post under the new post on the staff board, as my inbox got a little full!
|
|
Emails have been sent to all inactive members. If you recieved an email titled "Revolution Sim: Activity Check" then you have until June 4th to register/post on the community forum. Any of these members who still haven't shown us that they are active will be deleted on June 5th. If we sent an email to you and it bounced back informing us that your listed email was invalid, you have already been deleted.
If you're a member and you didn't recieve an email, that probably means you're active, so thank you! Keep up the good the work, because you (the members) are the reason that this game is doing so well!
|
|
Thanks to me [ Sarah ] & Billy, RS has a new Show Fund. Now you can request money to make larger allowance/purses for your show! Please read the announcement on the community forums!
|
|
Just wanted everyone to know that I will be working on the university soon, so you can get your degree in Veterinarian medicine, Farrier, Breeding Management, Training, etc. This will increase the prestige of your establishments, so make sure to take your tests!
|
|
We now have a HOTM system! DOTM will come as soon as we get more dogs. Nominate a horse for May 2007 today, only 12 nominations are taken each month! Voting will begin once we have 12 nominees.
|
|
To all 20 of our current members, thank you! To the members who come after this is posted, welcome! To the visitors reading this now, come on in!
20 members in 9 days, we're cooking!
|
|
We're open! Come on in! And yes, I know the date says 27th, but it's still the 26th where I am. My databases seem to be on my host's time zone... So yeah, didn't fall asleep since the last post or something. :)
|
|
Almost there! The website is finished, and I'm in the process of finishing the community! Sit tight, I'll be opening the game in a couple of hourse!
|
|
Well, I've now improved our banking system once again, and I'm deep in the heart of the staff control panel project! The names of establishments and animals may now contain ' without any problems. Establishment bank accounts are inactive by default and must be activated by the owner at the bank login page. This will help avoid payments accidentally being made to establishments when the owner would rather recieve payments to their main account.
The salary system is now in place! Be sure to keep your Activity Points history, total & level up to date, as the salary program pays different salary amounts based on your level. Staff members can view the history & total you report, so please be honest!
|
|
Nope, not quite done, but I have now fixed our ' and " backslash issues! If you notice any forms that ask you not to use them, please give me a shout so I can fix that. Also, when you fill out a form, and it does it's nice little confirmation message, don't worry about slashes there! They won't show up anywhere else.
|
|
Yup, it works! Now let's see if I just solved the apostrophe issue...
|
|
Testing the staff posting cross your fingers!
|
|
Sorry I got a little behind. Trucking on though! Done with exams.
Library, Staff control pannel and forum are the only projects left to complete. We should be up and ready soon!
|
|
Just so that everyone knows, Revolution Sim is currently under construction. I have completed the bank system and perfected our login process and security precautions. I will now be working on the registry, establishments and staff areas of the website. Last will be the forum and the FAQ.
