I love the new forum, especially that we have a news/front page and image upload, but what is the deal with the RPG?

won't it just promote post-whoring, with these Opel-dollars and stuff it is just an excuse to post more crap.

I, like most people, want these forums to remain a community and with good information to Opel owners, not a place of crap and off-topic posts.

everytime you make a post you get an opel dollar

you are supposed to use them to upgrade your RPG character

There is a possibilty that post whoring may happen. If it does, it will be dealt with quickly. It will not be tolerated. Moderators will soon be sent guidelines on maintaining this forum. So beware....

Besides, Godmode is a great thing...!!!!

Some new features/games have been added to introduce a new look/feel.

If it becomes obvious that these are being abused, that will be dealt with also. Editting out functions is not hard..!!!!!

There is an initial "fiddle-factor", but this will slow down. Let's get used to the new feel. It was sprung on people, so there will be a degree of reluctance to change. I understand that.

Let's play.

i have noticed that all the admins have different coloured name - maybe that has something to do with it

Turblue
13th April 2004, 02:14 PM
Argh...!!!!

Bugs to figure out......!!!!

Ok. Admins, moderators and Board Founders are programmed with a colour. Users have not been. At this stage I saw no need.

Give us a chance to see how this new format runs, and bit by bit we will sort out these bugs. It was impossible to get this sort of hammering and "beta-testing" with just one user....

Turblue

I have turned off the shop mod allowing coloured names. There could be a conflict that causes this problem.

The colored titles seems to work just fine.

Researching a fix... :shock:

**UPDATE**

It seems that there is a conflict. The board designer is aware of this.

is there a limit on how many dollars you store ???

Turblue
13th April 2004, 06:37 PM
Don't believe so.

Also, there is no law that forces you to 'spend'.....

My04SRi
13th April 2004, 09:15 PM
i like the fact that you can change the colours to the names and etc.. it adds personality to different users... and would it be possible to loose your opel dollars without spending it?? how much opel dollars do i need to save to buy a a turbo kit for my barina?

Dregger
13th April 2004, 09:18 PM
yes you can loose Opel DOllars......

THe Godfather may come to collect his percentages every now and then!

(i'm not joking)


to get turbo kit......hmmm working on conversion 1AUD = 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000 Opel dollars......

Hey Opel Buffs, Just wanna say hi. I just joined this wonderfull Imported Holden Fraternity and was having problems posting a forum so i replied to one instead, must be another bug or something.

I am former New Holden Salesman and now own an SRi Turbo, so if any one wants some tips buying a new car or wants to be refered to one of my mates (still working there at several dealerships around Sydney) for "honest" good deal let me know.

I have a question for guys (and Gals) though if anyone knows, I have an SRi Turbo with 2 1/2 Mendrel Bent Cat-Back system, Two Hiclones, and a K&N Filter, does anyone know what sort of 1/4 that would do?

Also who do you reacon makes the best ECU update, I have heard UNIChip do a 190KW upgrade for standard engines, does anyone know anymore on this matter?

hey turblue,
what does
HP
MP
PL

mean?

Rhino
22nd June 2004, 08:53 AM
HP stands for Hit Points, these are used during battles.
MP stands for Magic Points, these are used during battles and sometimes when using items.
PL stands for Prize Limit, and determines how many Prize Items you can use in a day.

22nd June 2004, 08:55 AM
ahhh thanks
can you tell me what the HONEY does?

Chux
22nd June 2004, 09:39 AM
yeah i have 2 healing seed things but i can't use them?

Rhino
22nd June 2004, 10:24 AM
I'm guessing now...

Honey, kinda like body paint. Spread it over my body and remove with tongue. [slap :oops: ] Umm, I think it might be for a potion.

Healing seed. Either in a potion, or used whilst not in a battle to restore health. Saves $30 at the inn maybe. May even be able to use it in a battle if you get poisoned, similar to the fairy tear - bless their cotton socks.

To make a potion, you go to headquarters and cauldron but I haven't found a list anywhere of what works with what :(

Alllllllrighty then! Did you just go into your inventory and lick it off (I mean use it) or during a battle? Where'd you get it - the honey?

em
22nd June 2004, 12:11 PM
went into my inventory and clicked on it, got it during a battle?

Dee
22nd June 2004, 12:58 PM
i think it might have something to do with the cauldron.....

Chux
22nd June 2004, 02:17 PM
honey increases magic points, but i don't think anyone has figured out how to use magic in a battle yet? other than the fairy tear for healing.

is there any documentation of this mod somewhere?

i vote em reads it all and then tells us all how to use it. :P
