Infamous sire.

Post by Elijah »

Hey admin,

Lindsay asked me to post something here. So on the status page we have the neat little + signs to show when someone has prestigious sire. However Lindsay mentioned that if she added a - sign, the system sees that as a positive status and reorders the person higher on the page.

(Also, I for one hadn't realized that the page was ordered by status, but that's pretty cool!)

Can we please have a way to indicate infamous sire that doesn't break the ordering system?

Perhaps in the short term we can just have a forum thread somewhere with infamous (and perhaps prestigious) sired and why they are so well known. It could add some fun role-play.

Thanks!

I suggest that we add a place in the Wiki for all the prestigious / infamous sires, and have the status page link it. This will allow everyone to view what they should already know, assuming they have the appropriate cam/kindred lores/kindred politics. This also forces the person to create a detailed explanation of their sire prior to it counting for status, not to mention giving the staff a group of NPCs created by pplayer to wreak havoc with.

Alright, rewrote a couple dozen routines, and I think I've got it working.

Lindsay: I'll PM you for how to adjust this in the DB.

Um.

Thanks for doing this, but...

Now the Status Page is center-justified.

I've been working on the css as a separate project. Getting rid of tables and moving up to an up to date HTML model.

The page is supposed to be centered in the window (it was only broken in IE before) and there is a weird glitch currently with long status lists. Everything else is as it was originally intended.
