Updates & News
Due to the recent influx of spambots, we'll be tweaking some permissions over the next couple hours. If your permissions get altered in some ways that you're unable to post, don't fret, it'll be resolved. If you have any concerns, feel free to use our Discord server!
All finished; permissions should be sorted across the board. If you encounter any issues, please contact a member of the Admin team.
Changes:
Changes:
- + Added security questions upon registration; these may become more difficult depending on their effectiveness, but shouldn't prevent a real human from registering easily.
+ Adjusted permissions for newly registered users. Instead of immediately being able to post everywhere, unsorted users are restricted to posting in certain places (such as the landing space and OOC areas)
+ Permissions are now determined by Human/Fledge/FP usergroups
Face Claim formatting has been updated. Going forward, we request people use the following format if their IGN is different than their forum account name:
IGN [Account name] - Claim
As always, please make sure to read the rules regarding the claim.
Note: this will not be applied retroactively; if things need updated, feel free to post those updates in the thread itself.
IGN [Account name] - Claim
As always, please make sure to read the rules regarding the claim.

The Current Events board has been adjusted a bit; instead of 'News and Reports' and 'Editorials', the two sub-boards are now 'News and Editorials' and 'Soapboxes'.
- + News and Editorials: news pieces submitted by anyone, and editorials from the staff
+ Soapboxes: opinion pieces by anyone, including staff
Reminder:
All content with a rating of NC-17 should be clearly labeled as such in the topic title itself (with either [M] or [MATURE] tagged on the end), and with trigger warnings displayed clearly at the top of any posts containing such. Please refer to Rule #4. Certain topic titles have been adjusted accordingly.
If any posts are not marked appropriately, let us know!

Updates have been completed. Unfortunately the old skin does not seem to be compatible with the forum guts, so please stick by the ugly default skin while we retool things. 
ETA: Custom BBCodes will be back ASAP - sorry!
ETA2: Most custom BBCodes have been re-added; if you find any missing or broken, please let us know in this thread and link to the post in question so we can verify our behinds the scenes tinkering has sorted it all.

We have a new skin! Milk v2, showcased as the default skin on login, is now available to those who'd like to use it. Change over by going to your UCP > Board Preferences and choose Milk v2.
Special thanks for Kris [Anders] for purchasing the skin! <3

The Human usergroup has been modified - this was done in order to prevent abuse going forward. Humans are no longer able to post in the subsections 'City News' and 'Hosted Venues'. Realistically, Ab is a forum for supernaturals. Human is meant to be a transition usergroup, and thus players of humans are still welcome to post OOC, write RPs, and otherwise interact.
If you're part of the Human usergroup and would like to be adjusted, simply let us know here.
