TheSkeletonMan939 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 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!

Makuta_of_Oz Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) 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.

Blessed Blade Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 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 The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFlash Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 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 ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballom Nom Nom Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 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! ~B~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rarity Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 This is cool. I don't use the archives, but now when I try to tap blogs on my phone, and accidentally hit archives I won't get logged out! >Not reading the first greentext story on BZP >2013 Be a cool kid and vote for mighty morphin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 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. avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishers64 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 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.

TNTOS Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 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.-TNTOS- "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Theodore RooseveltA Writerly BlogThe Tasty Library of Sugary Goodness(My Little BIONICLE: Friendship is Explosive Completed 01/05/14){The Shika Trilogy Omnibus Completed 03/31/14) (Review Topic)(In the End Completed 09/01/14) (Review Topic)The Biological Chronicle: (2001) (2002) (2003) (2004) (2005) (2006) (2007) (2008) (2009) (2010) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mare Tranquillitatis Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valendale Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Not only is this great in and of itself, it is also one of the many little things that contribute to the overall greatness of BZPower. I look forward to using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blessed Blade Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 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 The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at this old topic, where B6 even agreed that it was the cookies but never got around to investigating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenebrae Invictus Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I'm very glad that this has been fixed. Thank you, whoever is behind this. I go back to the archive every now and then, and there are also some times I accidentally end up there. So this is neat.

Protodite Karzahni Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 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. I wrote stories once. They were okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
