  2. Open test of new board software

    Later in January I'm going to upgrade the board's software to Xenforo 2. Right now I'm running a test of the new software, and I'd like you guys to check it out. The test is using an old copy of the board, so you'll only see posts from April 2019, and it will only exist temporarily. When the...
  3. Commissions

    How many people on this site are taking commissions to do stuff? I'm wondering if there should be a central place (thread or whatever) for people to announce that they're taking commissions, post examples, link to their Deviantart or Patreon accounts, and so on.
  4. Need example of a "south wins ACW" timeline for reporter

    I did an interview for a minor media outlet about this site, and I'd like an example of a certain kind of timeline to give to the reporter. Specifically, a timeline where the south wins the civil war and then gives up slavery on its own. The kind of thing that makes favorable assumptions about...

  6. Retrospective elections must be posted in Chat

    When polls were removed in Chat, the retrospective elections threads were "grandfathered" in here because there were a few very popular, long-running threads on the subject. However, Books and Media is now overflowing with spammy retrospective election threads. They seem to involve someone...

  14. Help test new server

    I'm going to move the board to a new server in order to speed things up. However, I want to test it first. If people could go to https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion and see if they can break anything I'd appreciate it. This has a copy of the board from a few days ago, running on the...

  20. Splitting the map thread

    Just as an FYI, in the future I will be splitting the map thread into two halves (one with the first 5000 posts and one with the rest), and locking the first half. It's getting big enough to be annoying for performance reasons.
