Hello all,
Along with the new quarter, we will be sporting brand new forums. These new forums will replace both the blog and our previous forums, and will serve as the club online meeting place for announcements and development. The reason for this change is that our previous system was clumsy, slow, had little online storage, and worst of all - ADS.
As a temporary measure, the new forums will be hosted on my personal web space until we acquire a suitable domain for the club. This transition will require brand new registrations for all members, because we were unable to transfer over the old information to our new server.
Registration has been made more simple, and safe (no more phishing ads asking for your cellphone number). As with the previous version, manual activation will be required before you can use the forum, which in turn requires that you use your real name during registration.
A recap for those who prefer bullet points:
- tdcnoho.blogspot.com and tdcnoho.freeforums.org are being phased out.
- The new forums will replace them, and temporarily be hosted at the link below.
- All members will need to re-register regardless of their membership to the above forums.
Registering for lots of things can be a pain, but with this change, future changes will be painless. If we ever need to migrate servers or anything of that sort, we now have access to the database to do so, so this is most likely the last time you'll have to do this (I hope).
As a reminder: The forums are private to club members. Our "public" face has yet to be unveiled, but is in the works under the Hydra Interactive Studios name.

Thank you,

President, TDC.
