A Small Beacon Of Hope For JA+

The year is 2023 AD. JA+ is entirely occupied by the "clan" that must not be named. Well, not entirely... One small server of indomitable Italians still holds out against the invaders. And life is not easy for the NPCs who stumble upon the =SF=SaberForceClan Server (51.89.3.221:29070) only to end up confronted with @shox and me.

Anyway, check it out if you still play JKA. It is worth it.

Birthday Time

20 years ago, @SNAkE and some friends (among others @Chrono and @V3xX) founded "TnG" in JK2.

10 years ago, during the night between the 12th and the 13th of September, a spontaneous Xfire conversation between @soFFe and me led to the creation of this website.

TnG has been associated with loads of crazy things, has accomplished impressive feats, was (and probably still is) the overall most infamous and admired group on JK3 and has overcome every obstacle in its way.

But most importantly, it still remains what it was founded as: A group of close friends.

The small community it has gathered is still keeping the old forums alive. Awesome, given we never really had any concrete goal or plan for this website in the first place.

On to further awesome times!
All Ez.

Modal Image Functionality Added

Greetings.

You can now click images in the Forum to open them up in a responsive box that is displayed on top of the current page and can be closed again with another click.
This handy technique is only like 15 years old.
The sky is the limit on this website.

Merry Provider-Fuckup - Uh Christmas

As some of you noticed, we had a brief downtime thanks to our previous provider being the very incarnations of uselessness.
Those measly morons actually managed to not only break server and hardware our stuff was hosted on but to also break the backup of it at the same time.
Since we are quite familiar with the everlasting disappointment most people embody, we obviously had backups ourselves.
Now to the details below:

Since the website is not really big, the backup was sadly no daily thing.
Therefore:
1) Content created / added between the 07.11.2020 and 16.12.2020 was lost.
This is mostly shoutbox posts, profile edits and forum posts. The shoutbox posts are negligible but as for the rest:
The following users have made profile updates in the timespan mentioned above and have their avatar/userpic/userbanner reset:
Avatars:
@Kykio @Perso @davidino @wotan @Bishop @reboRn. @joi @Boots
Userpictures:
@davidino @Bishop @reboRn. @Cyb3rst0rm @joi
Userbanners:
@davidino @Artemis @Cyb3rst0rm @joi
Miscellaneous profile edits:
@soFFe

Please update your profile again to fill that gap.

The missing forum content is mostly the "Videos" and the "Game Footage" thread. I will make a post in the latter and contact people who had contributed recently personally so we can fill that gap together again.

2) Backend / Code changes since January 2020 are reverted.
You will see a few changes and optimizations that I made this year are no longer present. I will have to recode a good portion of that.
A few parts of the website might not work as expected yet either. Please inform me or be patient, since it will take some time for me to fiddle with all of this again.

On the bright side, not much has been lost and this incident provides us with a good opportunity to improve some things and shows me that I have to make even more frequent backups, since

most people are completely useless

the website has received enough content updates in 1 month for this to create some holes in the page!

All of that aside, a fairly early Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you.

Minor website change

Salutations.

To help the

numerous

visually impaired users on this website, the messenger icon (that is the envelope in the top right corner in case you have not noticed yet..!) will now show a little effect instead of just the

super obvious

change of color, when the user has unread messages.

If you do not have any friends but want to see the ultra-amazing 4K 60FPS effect anyway, you can message @<s>Test'</s>. You might just receive a reply. The messenger (and a few other parts of the website) will surely undergo some more changes in the course of the next year. Any reasonable suggestions posted in the Suggestions Section or the comments below will be taken into account!
