Today is a momentous day in BZPower history, for I can now go into the Archive forums, log in and out there, come back here, and will still be logged into these new forums.
Yay!

I mentioned it on my blog earlier, and was told it apparently happened a few days ago. Black Six mentioned it on his blog. IMO he should've mentioned it elsewhere too, for those of us who don't visit the blogs often.
This should take the stress out of referencing an archived post when the need occurs.

Yes, this is indeed awesome; now we can browse the archives without any worries, and stay logged into both at the same time. =) I haven't needed to go onto the archives that much recently, but it's always nice to have the option, right? =D

Zelda RPG unfortunately dead. =( Will look into eventually reviving it as a second RPG, or finishing it in an epic. Signature in progress.

Awesome! I can finally see what this site was like before without painfully logging back in (I'm usually too lazy to log in and out 
).
).
Credits go to Strack for the awesome sprite.
I'm an Emerging Fluidic Master (again). Time to start working on my Waterbending.
I'm still a ninja although I think I'm losing my skills as one.

Well, that's a relief. I've got a couple of dear old epics in the archived forums that I still reference, but doing so always used to log me out. Not anymore!

As usual, the most annoying problems can be solved by the smallest tweaks.
Not like I ever turned my cookies on when I went to the old forums, but it's nice not to have to go to that step.

YES!
For a being who frequents the archives for various reasons, I am most glad of the change. One less cantankerous obstacle to getting things done.
Hats off to Black Six.

I was wondering when they'd get this done, although honestly I don't use the archives too often, but who knows maybe I will now that I don't have to worry about forced logging off. It's great either way, IMO.

I was wondering about that right yesterday, now I see why! That's just useful. Even if I do not go very often to the Archives, I'm pretty sure it'll be easier now.

Finally! I hated the logout issue. I can't believe something so simple as needing to rename a cookie could get overlooked for so long. The new Tracker is awesome.

Well, us BZPers have a habit of just eating those delicious delicacies, rather than taking a look at what was going on with them, so that may have been part of the reason it was overlooked for a year. =P

Actually, I think we actually did figure out that the cookies were replacing each other whenever one logs in, but because the Tracker did not exist, it never caught the Staff's attention, whereas now, we can directly communicate with them to swiftly fix any bugs. Look at this old topic, where B6 even agreed that it was the cookies but never got around to investigating.

It's nice to be be logged into the archives again... it's almost like it was before the downtime.
I do not think words can describe just how badly my heart aches to be able to post in the archives again though. Rawr nostalgia.

I can't say I've ever needed to get into the archives, but it's a nice feature for if ever I accidentally fall down an inconveniently placed link or something. Or if I just want to look at the way things once were, who knows?
I went on last week when I first got the news, while listening to Sora from the Escaflowne soundtrack. Gosh darn that somehow made everything way more depressing than it should have been.
