AethyrNet Forums

So we've been talking about getting our own Ventrilo server up, and after looking into it a bit, we've decided on a provider.
Though unless largely requested, we probably won't set one up until around October, so that everyone's got the hang of XIV before we start doing anything requiring a Vent server.
Anyway, after looking around, we've decided we'll most likely buy a 35-slot server from LeetVoiceServers, which will cost $50 for six months. Not too bad, for the great quality of their servers.
Now for said servers, we'll be taking donations. That's where the PayPal donation button comes in.
If you want to donate towards the price of us buying a Vent server, you can just click the button below. (Okay it's not a button yet, just a link. I'll make it a button soon.)
Though I'd advise not donating just yet, since it'll be a month or three before we actually buy the server. (I'm really just posting it here to remind myself that the damn thing exists, when we need to actually use it.)

CARRY ON, MEN.

WELL THEN. For now, this post can be entirely ignored, because Metal Smith was kind enough to let us use his …

After a few hectic days of fumbling around with the layout and structure and all that, we've finally got the forum up and running. It's a little empty at the moment, but I'm sure we'll be active in no time.
As you've probably guessed, the forum isn't entirely finished yet, but we're getting close. We still need to make a few more graphics for buttons and such, tweak the nav bar, and probably mess with the color scheme a little more. Other than that, we'll just be tweaking little things here and there. So don't be surprised if you see the forum slowly improve, as this will be a continuous project of sorts.

Also, if you guys have any suggestions for the layout, color scheme, graphics, new boards, pretty much anything, you're encouraged to post a topic about it on the Questions, Comments, and Suggestions board.

Big thanks to Corronet for making this possible, she's done almost the whole layout, and I'd say it's looking pretty good so far.

And I guess that's it for now, so... Welcome to our new forum.
Glad to have you guys with us.

~It's hard to define what we plan AethyrNet to be in a short, neatly-formed paragraph, but that won't stop us from trying.~
Generally, a friendly group of people who love to poke fun at each other and not take things too seriously. A group of ultimately harmless assholes. We're mature enough to know not to take offense to every little insult thrown our way, and will call each other names freely, and make fun of each other, knowing it's all in good fun. If you need to be handled with kid-gloves 24/7, this is probably not the group for you.
We'll accept anyone and everyone willing to join, as long as they have the ability to use common sense, and know how to take a joke. All we ask is that you're seventeen or older, or at least act like it. We won't be kicking people left and right, but in the rare case that no one likes you, or you start acting like a douche, you will most likely be kicked from the group. But it shouldn't be too hard to avoid that here, just don't make an effort to get on everyone's bad side.

We've got a few rules for the forum, but you don't really have to follow them to the dot, Just take a look at 'em and keep …
