[ATTACH type=full" size="284x189]1285[/ATTACH] It is with great pleasure that I announce we’ve hit our 15,000th post today! I’m not usually one to highlight milestones, but I wanted to celebrate this one for two reasons. First, the amazing growth we’ve been experiencing lately - it’s been a joy to be part of this community and help make it as enjoyable as possible. I hope your time here has been nothing short of fantastic! 😃 Second, I want to take a moment to thank [uSERGROUP=2]@everyone[/uSERGROUP]. I sincerely appreciate all of you, especially those who frequently visit and engage with the community. Your contributions make this place what it is - so thank you! We’ve got a new Administrata Essentials edition coming soon, along with something exciting and refreshing. Stay tuned! 😃

Hello [uSERGROUP=2]@everyone[/uSERGROUP] We just wanted to take a moment to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a holiday season filled with joy, laughter, and good times with loved ones. As another year comes to a close, we’re so grateful to have you as part of the Administrata community. Your support and contributions have made this space what it is - a place for admins to connect, learn, and grow together. Take some time to relax (or maybe even work on those plans for your next big project 😉). We’ll be here cheering you on when you're ready to jump back into the admin life. Here’s to a fantastic 2025 ahead! Stay awesome, Cedric & the Administrata Team P.S. Keep an eye out - we’ve got some exciting stuff planned for the new year! 🎉

Hey [uSERGROUP=2]@everyone[/uSERGROUP] We've rolled out something that we think you’re going to love – the Administrata Task Hub! (Submenu: Shop & Orders => Credits Task) This is a new way for you to earn credits by doing simple (and sometimes pretty fun) tasks that will help our community grow. You know, those credits that you can use to trade services with other members, grab cool items from our shop (coming soon 😋) or get some quality content and design services. Or just unlock special perks on Administrata (Also coming soon. 🙈) [ATTACH=full]275[/ATTACH] So right now, we’ve got a variety of tasks to get you started, from community support to creative challenges. And here’s the best part - we’re just getting started! We’ll be adding even more tasks over time, so if you have ideas, we’d love to hear them. If your idea is accepted, we’ll add it to the Hub, and that’ll count as a completed task for you. Easy credits, right? ;) So jump in, explore what’s available, and start racking up those credits. And if you have questions or ideas, reach out – we’re always around to help. Thanks for being such a great part of the community! Also, have you spotted our cool Halloween banner? Credits go to [mention=36]BRANSOL[/mention] :love: Happy tasking, The Administrata Team

[ATTACH type=full" align="left]339[/ATTACH]Welcome to the Thankful for You: Community Appreciation Event! With Thanksgiving just around the corner, we wanted to create an event to celebrate the incredible members who make Administrata a great place to be. We're taking this chance to recognise and celebrate the people who make Administrata feel like a true community. This event is about showing gratitude to those who’ve made a positive impact here big or small. This could be in the form of advice, support, or just being a friendly face, these moments matter. Let’s take a moment to appreciate each other and give some thanks, and win some awesome prizes along the way! How it Works: Nominate a Member: Think of someone in the community who’s made a difference. Maybe they've offered good advice, showed support, or kept things interesting. You have until 14th November 2024 to send in your nominations. To nominate, send to Al: Their name A short note (50–100 words) explaining why you’re thankful for them [*]Anonymous Voting: The entries will be collated, anonymised, and posted along with a poll. Members can then vote for the one they think is best, focusing on the impact rather than the individual. [*]Vote For Your Favourite: Voting will run from 17th November 2024 until 27th November 2024 so everyone has plenty of time to participate. After the voting period ends, we’ll reveal the people behind the winning entries. [*]Winner Announced: The winning nominee and nominator will be announced on Thanksgiving Day. The nominee with the most votes will win a prize of 1500 credits and the person who nominated them will win a prize of 500 credits which can be spent in any way they wish. Remember, this event isn’t just about winning, it’s about taking a moment to reflect on what your fellow members bring to the community. Every nomination is a way to show gratitude and recognise the positive impact we have on each other. So, let’s celebrate together and make this Thanksgiving one to remember! Nominations are open NOW! Send a PM to Al with your nomination and let’s get this celebration started. The Small Print: Each member can only nominate one person, so choose wisely. You can nominate members and staff, but not forum admins, as they’ll be privy to the identities of nominations. We reserve the right to edit, amend, or cancel the event at any time for any reason. In the event of a tie, admins will decide the winner. Nominations and results are final. No Take-backsies.

Welcome to Community Events & Challenges! Here’s your chance to connect with fellow members, showcase your skills, and have some fun along the way. We’ll be hosting a wide variety of activities, including auctions, giveaways, contests, and events - something for everyone! [HEADING=3]Why Participate?[/HEADING] Engage with fellow members Showcase your skills and creativity Win cool prizes or earn community recognition Join auctions, giveaways, and exclusive contests Have fun and be part of something awesome! Stay tuned for announcements on upcoming events, and don't hesitate to jump in when something catches your eye. Let’s make these events a blast!

Greetings [uSERGROUP=2]@everyone[/uSERGROUP] ! We’ve been discussing a new event behind the scenes and we’re finally excited to announce a new monthly initiative to celebrate the incredible work of our community leaders: the Admins in Action spotlight! Each month, we’ll showcase one inspiring admin who has made a positive impact in their community. This is your chance to nominate someone whose story deserves to be told! Here’s how it works: We’ll host a live event featuring the selected admin, where we’ll ask them questions about their journey, successes, challenges, and tips for managing and growing communities. Once our questions are done, the floor will open up to member-submitted questions for a more interactive discussion. After the event concludes, we’ll compile the highlights into an overview and post it in our Articles section, so the whole community can learn from their insights. Who would you like to see featured in our Admins in Action spotlight? Share your nominations below! If you’d like to nominate anonymously, you can DM me the name. :) Together, we can continue to empower and inspire each other as admins. Thanks!

I didn't know at the time, but the first forum I joined would eventually, one day, belong to me. It was a previous iteration of Paranormalis. Back then, it was called TPN: The Paranormal Network. I joined because I wanted to join various discussions about time travel theories and whatnot. Here's what it looked like, back in 2005. Man, that old style felt good. vBulletin 3 Forever baby!

I'd like to start off, since we've done quite a few promotions the last few days and I wanted to list the complete team so far: Administrators [mention=1]Cedric[/mention] Moderators [mention=5]Cpvr[/mention] [mention=98]InMyOpinion[/mention] Design Team [mention=36]BRANSOL[/mention] Content Team [mention=48]Nomad[/mention] [mention=62]Ravenfreak[/mention] [uSER=47]@Uptrendfinancialsignal [/uSER] [uSER=97]@fdk1971[/uSER] [mention=141]1stop[/mention] [uSER=191]@Scorpion[/uSER]

Hey [uSERGROUP=2]@everyone[/uSERGROUP] A few weeks ago I launched ForumDir.com - initially a promotion avenue focused on the Topsites and the Directory with no intention to have a community. After some good conversations with [mention=2]Al[/mention], it became obvious we both wanted to do something more. We started brainstorming, talking to other people, gaining feedback and insights. Soon, we had a plan, a mission and a vision. So after a few more weeks of rebranding, setting things up correctly, etc.. Well.. We’re incredibly excited to officially introduce Administrata! This platform has been built from the ground up with one goal in mind: to empower community leaders, moderators, and owners with everything you need to help your communities grow and thrive. Whether you’re just starting out or managing an established community, Administrata has the tools, resources, and support to guide you at every stage. You'll see that we've decided to start differently than most admin communities by focusing primarily on empowerment.. We've tried to hold the same consistent design throughout the forum as much as possible. [HEADING=2]What You’ll Find Here[/HEADING] Support & Technical Discussions: Strategies for building and growing your community, discuss platform optimization, and explore long-term sustainability solutions. Resources & Growth Tools: This section houses essential resources like guides, tutorials, and networking tools to enhance your community-building skills. From Resource Articles to the Growth & Exchange Marketplace, we provide the infrastructure for leaders to trade services, collaborate, and grow their communities together. Community Showcase: Share your community, discover others, and find inspiration through mutual promotion. Whether you’re seeking feedback or simply want to connect with like-minded leaders, this is your go-to space. Content & Design Orders: Need professional content or custom graphics for your community? You’ll find services that cater to your needs, from SEO-optimized articles to eye-catching designs. (Coming soon) Growth & Exchange Marketplace: Engage with other community leaders through peer-to-peer exchanges for posts, services, advertising, and more. Looking to hire staff or find new roles? The Job Board will connect you with talent or opportunities in your niche. [HEADING=2][/HEADING] We’re just getting started! Administrata is built with flexibility and growth in mind. As the needs of community leaders evolve, so will we. [HEADING=2]Get Involved[/HEADING] We encourage all members to dive in and make the most of Administrata. Introduce yourself in our Introduce Yourself forum, participate in discussions, or share your community in the Community Showcase. As we grow, we look forward to building a thriving network of community leaders who support, learn from, and inspire one another. Let’s work together to turn your community vision into reality! Thank you for joining us – Welcome to Administrata!

Hi everyone, I've just rolled out a new sidebar widget that allows you to see who was online today. :) It’s a great way to keep track of the activity and see which members have been active on the forum. Additionally, I’ve added a member legend to help you quickly identify user groups. For a more clean look, I’ve also removed the bold styling on usernames. Feel free to let us know your thoughts! 😊 [ATTACH type=full" size="288x324]1227[/ATTACH]

Hey folks, Just a quick heads-up, AgoraForo has merged into Administrata. Nothing’s really changing for you; Administrata will stay pretty much the same. This merge helps me focus on one direction instead of juggling two platforms, which means I can give more attention to improving what we already have. For starters, I’ll be putting more energy into the marketplace over time. On top of that, we’ll soon be adding a dedicated resource manager to make sharing and finding resources easier. There’s still a bit of cleanup to do, and it’ll happen gradually. If you spot anything that needs fixing, just let me know, feel free to use the report button. Thanks, Cedric

[ATTACH type=full]399[/ATTACH] It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries The Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die. Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the Warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor’s will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the ever vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants – and worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods. [HEADING=1]Welcome to 40K Games[/HEADING] In the abyss of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, where the light of hope struggles against the encroaching shadows of despair, there exists a bastion—a sanctuary for those who seek solace in the digital realms of conflict and carnage. At 40K Games, we are the keepers of this sanctuary, dedicated to chronicling the trials and triumphs of the warriors who tread the blood-soaked battlefields of the grim darkness. [HEADING=2]Our Mission:[/HEADING] In the relentless expanse of the void, we stand as beacons of knowledge and guardians of lore. Our mission is to illuminate the darkest corners of the galaxy, revealing the secrets and sagas that lie within the annals of Warhammer 40,000 gaming. [HEADING=2]What Sets Us Apart:[/HEADING] With hearts as black as the void and minds as sharp as the fangs of a ravenous tyranid, we delve deep into the heart of darkness, uncovering the truths that lurk beneath the surface. From the roaring thunder of bolters to the whispered secrets of ancient relics, we leave no stone unturned in our quest for enlightenment. [HEADING=2]What We Offer:[/HEADING] News: Amidst the clamor of battle, we bring tidings of war—updates, revelations, and omens of things to come. Reviews: Like Inquisitors scrutinizing heretical tomes, we dissect each game with ruthless precision, delivering judgments as uncompromising as the Emperor’s wrath. Previews: Through the haze of war, we glimpse the future—a tantalizing glimpse of the horrors and wonders yet to be unleashed upon the galaxy. Retrospectives: In the ashes of memory, we unearth relics of bygone eras, exploring the legacy of legends long forgotten. [HEADING=2]Join Us:[/HEADING] Whether you are a battle-hardened veteran or a neophyte seeking enlightenment, we extend our hand in fellowship. Follow us into the darkness, subscribe to our transmissions, and become part of our legion of souls bound by a common creed—a love for Warhammer 40,000 gaming. In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war. And at 40K Games, we are its heralds.

Social media platforms have absolutely changed the landscape of the internet, but I don't think that's anything new. I think what we as "golden age of the internet" veterans are seeing is another version of Eternal September, but perhaps in reverse. Back in the days of BBS systems when it was mostly colleges campuses that had access, students would flood those communities every September disrupting the established culture with their lack of experience. Today, the influx is from social media with the low-effort replies, but it has also shifted the focus away from more structured, long-form discussions that forums excel at. I've seen firsthand why forums remain irreplaceable. They offer something social media can’t which is permanence and continuity. On social media, content is buried by algorithms that prioritize quick interactions over deep conversations. Forums, on the other hand, are a slower, more deliberate exchange of ideas which is crucial for places like TTI where discussions are theoretical, speculative, or archival in nature. Platforms like Discord are great for real-time, but they can't replicate the ecosystem. Forums provide a space where ideas aren't discussed briefly and forgotten but built upon over time. That's something I will always value.

Joshua Farrell submitted a new marketplace item: [plain]Forum Management and Moderation[/plain] - [plain]Need someone to moderate and manage your community? Look no further![/plain] Read more about this marketplace item...

I'd definitely never attempt to manage more than one. I'd be spreading myself too thinly if I did that. I'm not on forums every waking moment... I have work, sleep, and other hobbies, after all!

Sleepless nights and countless hard work and a team full of dedicated staff especially [mention=48]Nomad[/mention] and [uSER=131]@Sully©[/uSER] which have been supportive of my success

Greetings [uSERGROUP=2]@everyone[/uSERGROUP], We’re on the lookout for 1 or 2 Community Moderators to join our team! As a moderator, your role will be to help keep our forums clean from spam and ensure our community guidelines are respected. We approach issues with common sense and prefer resolving them calmly rather than immediately issuing warnings. In addition to moderating, we’d love for you to be active on Administrata and contribute by seeding the forum with engaging content. It’s a laid-back role, and you’ll be joining a close-knit, supportive team that always has each other’s backs. While this is typically a volunteer position, there’s an opportunity to participate in content orders and exchange credits for payouts if you’re interested. If this sparks your interest, send me a DM with a motivational message explaining why you'd love to join us. Thanks, - The Administrata Team

Welcome to the Content Team, [mention=141]1stop[/mention]!

Thanks for this. I was thinking about it in various ways the other day. The few times I've reached out to others I normally wouldn't in an official capacity, it's been well received, They respond appreciatively, which was somewhat unexpected. But it's been a long time since I was just a member, and I've forgotten what it feels like being welcomed by staff.

I struggle when I have to take action - disciplinary action. It's not that I don't know what to do; it's that I wish everyone could get along and we could all keep having a good time. I hate dealing with problem members. I hate having to issue warnings and ban people. It always created some sort of divide and temporary drama. Drama is the struggle to deal with. I'm laid back and like to keep the community laid back, but sometimes, stuff happens.

Thank you guys. You're all awesome.
