Honestly, the devs have created what apparently is a very addictive game (called forumfall) and it seems like a shame to block out 30% of this game's user base.

Maybe I missed it somewhere, but unless a person tells you their characters name, or makes their forum handle the same as their game character :ohno:, how will we know who they are?

Regardless, glad to see them get this going. Now let's see if the update will go without a hitch. :rolleyes:

My state will not switch from Alabama. Someone else told me this happens with them, too, so it might be for everyone.

I also wasn't allowed to use any "." or "#" in my address. It would successfully update until I took those out.

Wow, so you can't post about Darkfall at all without a subscription? Except here which will be heavily moderated. What happened to them saying it was a sub forum, rather than the main forum as its become now? Guess forumfall will move to MMORPG or something

I am subbed btw, just haven't linked to my account yet

Same here, cant switch from Alabama to the proper state. Also worth noting is that the archive section has been removed from the forums. Tis is a sad day :(

Not sure if you're getting a different page than I was but it was there for me but very easy to miss. Took me 3 times to find it. It should be on the profile and billing page of account managment on the line below your date of birth.

As it is, you can "pick" the forum account you want the subscription linked to whenever you want. In short, trolling is just as feasible now as it was before.

Not really. All that it means is say I have a manin account named Adam and a troll account named Burt. If I want to post on my troll account, all I need do is switch my forum account in account management to Burt. Then, whenever I chose to post on my main, I can switch the name back to Adam.
As of now, there is still no way for people to know the "ingame" name behind forum accounts. In short, trolling will be just as prevailant as before among those who still play the game.
Forumfall never died, it merely mutated.

Guess so. AV will always be able to ban you tho now if you are too critical. Without forum/account linking I guess that would be a lot harder?

They can't ban you from the game for being too critical.

Not really. AV could always check ips in the old system. If they arent banning people for hacks/dupes/exploits, I doubt they will ban for forum insubordination.

10-31-2009, 10:27 AM
Well the main point was that trolls without subscriptions were hanging around forumfall and talking crap about the game when they weren't even playing. Now if you want to troll at least you have to own a subscription...

how do u add the account?
Go to the accounts page (EU (https://accounts.eu.darkfallonline.com), NA (https://accounts.us.darkfallonline.com/account/index.php)), go to the profile tab, and at the bottom click the button to change the account... It seems like it might take a while to go through or something though... People have posted on Technical Support, which is new with this change, so it definitely works for some people...

Ya I mistakenly linked my forum account with a mule account without a sub. It also let me link my community account with my main account. I still wasn't able to post. I sent in a ticket about it. They gave me a link to the Oct. 22nd News post about it not working correctly.... jee thanks AV.

The account management page is still broken. Itdoes not store state info, automatically setting it to Alabama. Because of this, new cards cannot be added to purchase a sub as the state info does not match credit cards.

I am talking about those who add new info. If for any reason personal info is changed, it will auto-pick Alabama as a State and billing will be denied due to an inconsistancy in states.

Yeah this I don't like at all. That will very possibly scare away people and not bother to post something. I know quite a few people that would react to that something like this "What? I have to wait for them to approve this thread? Bah screw it.. *closes down the webpage and browses another homepage without bothering to check back on the thread*"

That is really cool and needed. A lot of fail trolls can stop forumfalling then.
I guess Aventurine was finally sick of the garbage spread about their game by non players.

Your thing being set to Alabama, I think is just how it works, cause mine is that way, and my dads is that way.

I gave myself a headache one day trying to set it to the right state :ohno:

This is my concern. Maybe the forums are online, but I still consider it downtime when nobody can connect and post messages. It's like saying your telephone is connected but you can't call anybody.

Not only does it hinder the actively paying player-base communication, but can also cut into player-created events that we were so proud of our community for taking the initiative to host.

You can move running it over to the public forum (http://forums.darkfallonline.com/forumdisplay.php?f=73) until AV gets their shit together (this means permanently).

About a minute after I posted that, people started using the sub forum again, so it seems like it did work for some, but others were just beta testers...

All those it is working for seem to have early join dates or be members of clan usergroups though.

We're told that these should be in place by tomorrow and there will be some forum downtime involved. Update: there will be no downtime. Just everyone will be locked out of the forums for no reason for several hours, possibly longer with no dev post explaining why or what is happening.

Fixed.
