In each forum section, there are great threads that have gotten buried and asked again. I'm thinking that there should be one thread w/ internal links to the main, most interesting, and best reference threads in that section. This way, there won't be too many sticky/pinned threads at the top of a section (keeping it clean), while still having a way for someone to find a relevant w/o having to dig through piles of replies. Ex: In Captain Twill, there are great threads on flags, cannons/guns, various historical elements (like the period company logos one I just re-asked). A way to format a one thread "To good to be buried" would be: Flags- -Construction- Thread thr…

I can see that there are more than a few members in the database using an @pyracy.com email address, I’ve only heard a couple people complain. Since the domain has been redirected to new servers – the previous service will not work. If you are one of those that have a piracy.com email address and don’t have an alternate or you’re one of those that have paid to use a piracy.com email address, please send me a PM - Personal Message through the system and I'll see what I can do.

For all those of you that have contacted me via PM over the Tavern to ask about the issue with the wait in between PM's this was done to protect against Spam. I do not have the particulars on if this will be permanant or not. I do not know if we can shorten the time between PM's. I sent a message to the other Mods as well as Stynky and WE shall let you know when we find out. Till then carry on as normal as you can. Regards, Syren

I'm sorry, I did not know where to put this question. It used to be that when I opened a thread, all the replies were posted in order and readable in their own little boxes and I could just scroll down and read them all. Now it is all in an outline and I have to click on each to read.. I don't know if I messed something up in my settings or this is the new format but it confuses me. =( Did I break something?

The Pub is doing some major renovation and reorganization of the Raids, Boarding Parties & Pyrate Events forums. Those of you that Moderate Event Forums in the Raids, Boarding Parties & Pyrate Events section will likely be bumped from your Moderator duties, with the threads in those event forums being consolidated into a single event thread. In rare instances where the amount of conversation threads warrant the need of an event forum – a forum will be made to support that event. Until this mess is cleaned up and gets it's sea legs, the Raids, Boarding Parties & Pyrate Events forum will be closed until further notice.

This may not affect anybody, but with the Pub changing hands and it going through several Administrators, the Permission Settings for the Pub were all over the map. In an attempt to get things organized – I’ve done my best to unify the settings and remove seemingly unnecessary profile settings. If this causes anyone any trouble – please PM me right away and I’ll figure out what the problem is and make it right.

A little over a year ago there must have been a gap in security and someone got in and posted comments on a bunch of photos in the gallery that were filled with SPAM links. The gap has been closed, but the comments are still there. They look like this: On the plus side, these links are only possible to see if you actually happen to be looking at the photo. On the minus side, they're just that much more SPAM. So if you happen to be looking at the photo gallery and you see such, please click on the 'Report' button and we'll go in and delete them. At least one user has been doing this for us which is why it was even noticed in the first place. So if you happen to see it, …

Ahoy Shipmates, A couple days ago, on January 20th - the company that hosts our Pyracy.com web and email servers had a security breach. Unauthorized activity was detected in one of the company databases and immediately shut down. No one's email, user data, or personal information was accessed. However it's strongly advised that if you have an @pyracy.com email account, that you have your email password changed. If you have an @pyracy.com email account, contact Stynky to have your email password changed. As a precautionary measure, I urge everyone on Pyracy Pub to change their Pyracy.com login password. If anyone has any issues or problems accessing their Pyracy.com o…

It appears the Pub has had a bit of a hick-up - our anti-spam flags have been set too severe and a large percent of our new registrants have gotten deleted before they could get approved. So if you have trouble becoming a registered user – please re-register.

Does your pirate name have to be your login name? If so how can you change it? I put this as my name to see if it was the right site and it was but I can't find out how to. That is if you can.

After careful consideration, weighed against cost and use, it's been decided that the image gallery should be removed. With so many popular, online, image storage sites available, we feel that we cannot justify the cost of maintaining an image gallery. There are more simple ways to store and link images to the Pub, so we'll be taking the gallery down at some point in the next few weeks. Please save any images that you don't have stored or linked offsite. We will continue to archive all other materials on the Pub, as we always have, but the gallery's time has come and gone.

I just created/setup a new Facebook App for the Pub. It's suppose to integrate your Pyracy.com and Facebook login. Users should be able to sync their Pyracy.com avatars & Facebook profile pictures and broadcast their status. Pre-existing users should also be able to associate their accounts through a settings page. Please give it a try and let me know how well (or if) it works.

Is there any way that the pub can support the tapatalk app for smartphones? I tend to check it more than my computer.

Wonderin why some of my conversations have red X's in front of them, and wont let me reply? I just had one happen after conversing with Animal about stuff. I'm pretty sure I didn't piss him off or nuthin so's he'd block me. Same with a couple earlier ones with Silas Thatcher, and again, he just got a striker kit from me, so I don't think he's pissed at me either. WTF? Bo

Not seeing any new topics (the lazy person's short cut--that would be mine!) Looks like there haven't been any new conversations in the last two weeks, and I know that isn't right. Or is it? Hopefully when I go back and check, this will pop up. We'll see!

Some of you who do not follow the Pyracy Pub's status on Facebook will have noted that the Pub was down for many days. Please let me explain. The company that handles our overall service and carries the Pub on their servers were updating their entire system and software. The Pub has a number of custom written codes and protocols that help reduce spam and traffic issues, and which also increase our posting capacities and archiving. So in addition to new software, these custom codes for the Pub created a connection issue during the transition, so some code had to be re-written. We appreciate your patience. We assure you that everything is carefully archived and we kee…

OK, it looks neat with all the nice banners, but it makes for a slog if you want to find forums past the first couple. Scroll and scroll and scroll and scroll... The Outline format wasn't exactly pretty, but it was simple and the forum layout was clear. Just MHO.

I have used links to the forum in many places - on my website, in social media, here in the Pub itself. They used to be in this form: https://pyracy.com/index.php?showtopic=10480 They are now in this form: https:// pyracy.com/topic/11787-bale-seals-company-emblems-makers-marks-trade-symbols/page/2/#comments When the mods were trying to sort topics out of the huge pile a few months ago in preparation for restarting the Pub, the old form worked. (I checked a couple at the time.) It no longer works. Can we adjust it so the old form still works? It must be able to be done because it was working before forum was restored by someone else. Otherwise, the…
