    Hey, there's a Russian spambot running riot over the forums. can someone please ban this idiot? Thanks, so far the first 3 pages of the threads list have been swallowed by this nonsense. Already reported the member and as many of the posts as I felt like, so it should be easy to find.

    i have a feeling that there's nothing we can exactly DO about all the spambots. they've been a problem for a WHILE. and. well, i'm guessing we can't exactly IP ban them, because the bot farms that run these pieces of shit like, have a billion vpns, so you can't exactly get rid of them. it's like a hydra, you cut off one head, two grows in its place. and this forum's honestly fucked in that regard. eventually, i think all of the activity here WILL be spambots. dead internet theory and allat. but i guess best thing we can do is just. report the bots. easy as pie.

    Not sure if it's just me, but there seems to be a small visual bug where certain links aren't visible unless you hover over them, illustration attached and spoilered:

    also while i'm at it, a couple of suggestions for the site
    -on the pixel's works overview page, under gekiai, typo: 'colab' -> 'collab'
    -under megane, it may be worth mentioning that darkman (kuroihito) now goes by room_909
    -the page for haru to shura could use a bit of a blurb or description of the game's contents, like there is for most other games here
    -in works lost to time, it may be worth including the description for pixwatch that rain found on the archive (mentioned in the dev. room pixel discord)

    Are there sources on the room_909 = Darkman thing?
    Also I have no idea what Haru to Shura is even about, plus I heard that it is super open to interpretation, so I have no idea what to write as a blurb.

    There's this press release on Raindrop Sprinters where room_909 (Shuhei Miyazawa) says he used to go by the handle name 'kuroihito', which literally translates to 'darkman'.
    For Haru to Shura, how about this: "Haru to Shura is a side-scrolling story-focused adventure game where you play as Chihiro, a high-school student with chronic medical issues filled with uncertainty about the future. Returning from a doctor's appointment during spring break, you suddenly find yourself being ferried to a mysterious land called Eden, where there is no suffering or fear of any sort... but is there more to this place than meets the eye? Make new friends, meet new enemies, and unravel the mystery of Eden as you try to find your path in life."

    A couple typos on the special thanks page:

    Pixelさん,
    洞窟物語のよな楽レいゲーム
    を作ってくださって
    どらもありがとらございまレた！

    I don't know if an OCR or something was used here, because some letters were replaced with similar-looking ones that otherwise sound totally different. It should be

    Pixelさん,
    洞窟物語のような楽しいゲーム
    を作ってくださって
    どうもありがとうございました！

    (I don't actually know Japanese, though, so perhaps go over this with someone who knows more. Just bringing it to your attention.)

    Hello. I no longer use this account. Would it be possible for you to delete this account?

    Thank you.

    You guys are going to have to be waaayyy more specific. This isn't some simple one-size-fits-all operation.

    Are you wanting content to be removed?
    If you are after content removal then keep in mind that I cannot delete thread-starting posts, but I can edit them. Also I will not do anything about quoted text in other people's posts unless there is something specific that must be edited for privacy concerns (like you putting personal details in the contents of a post). On this note deleting content breaks the flow of conversation in threads, so think carefully about whether you want to do this. Of course given your low post count you can do this yourself if needs be.

    Are you just wanting just the security of not having your password or personal details associated with a website you no longer use?
    So long as your account is associated with content then I can't delete your account outright. That said I can change the password to something random, replace your email address, remove your avatar/banner, remove/edit your signature/about text, remove any sort of identifying information, and/or even permaban the account. You just need to tell me what you specifically need.

    Are you moving to a new account?
    I could merge this account's contents into your new account if that is the case.

    Sorry to bother you over something so minor, but in the forum rules, under the section about ragequit threads, there's a typo: "...indeterminably long period of absen*s*e."

    Done. Also I fixed "surprised" missing an "r" while I was there.

    Hey andwhyisit~ Was there a way to embed orgs on the forum? I noticed the update on the site. Guessing it's just for the downloads page? Still neat.

    Nice! Seems to play! Though, only org I could test with was a link from cavestory.org. Almost any other filehost I've tried doesn't allow hotlinking org files, or something else is going on I'm not noticing. And attach files won't allow an org file to be uploaded...

    Try using qu.ax, it worked for me.

    I've updated organya-ui.js on github with a minor visual fix (note tails disappearing when their attached head goes off screen). If you want to make the corresponding change on the site, go ahead :mahin:

    Hey andwhy, another bug report: clicking on an old link to cavestory.org/forums redirects to a broken forums.cavestory.org link instead of forum.cavestory.org

    Another one (Aar posted this a couple of hours ago so I'll just add it here).
    The logo in the top left doesn't appear to be loading for anyone/most people. It's gone in the main themes.

    The broken images should be fixed now. I also fixed an issue with the preview button and have set up the forums.cavestory.org to forum.cavestory.org redirect.

    For some reason, my profile is playing music on some browsers and I have no idea why. Can you look into it?
