11/28/09: Just finished installing the latest version of Wikka here, hence the theme change. Nice look, but it's not Descent!
6/20/09: Well, it's been a while since I've updated this! So, let's see, what's new? Well, most recently, the ACL system has been changed to allow logged in users to edit pages, no need for me to put you on the Access Control List now. Let's see how long it takes spammers to pick up on that and start flooding the pages with pron links. This move was predicated by the recent upgrade to the latest version of Wikka, and the captcha system. Since installing the captcha a year ago, spam-bot registration has been near zero! A short while ago, a hacker messed up the site pretty bad. It's all been fixed, but in the processes I deleted the custom skin I had made for DescentiaPedia, and haven't gotten around to restoring it.
I haven't been keeping track of all the new tutorials, and changes to existing ones. There are lots of new D3 tutorials to check out, have a look at RecentChanges to see what pages have changed.

6/07/08: I've been tweaking DescentiaPedia... layout, navigation, installed a 'captcha' on the registration page to cut down on spam registrations. And speaking of spam, I've also set the comment section so you have to be a registered member to post a comment. I really hated to do that, but I was removing several spam comments daily. So, please register and/ or login to leave a comment. To edit a page, I have to add your name to an Access Control List (ACL), so please let me know if you would like to edit pages here, and I'll add you name. Well, I am struck by the parallel to Descent, MD1032 fought viraly infected mining robots, I fight spam bots who are hell bent on destroying P4D. I am still working on a matching theme for the forum.

5/8/08: Ok, I got a little carried away, and completely re-wrote the skin for DescentiaPedia. I also added an extended footer, with recent changes, comments and some other stats showing, and linked to the relevant pages even! I've started writing a new skin for Descent Guides Project Forum too. I have a forum set up on my own machine, running under EasyPhp. That way I can develop the code, test for bugs, then upload it all when it's ready. Prepare For Descent's home page will also get a matching skin, too. Please let me know what you think of the new look!
