General

We updated to 0.19.5. This was not as smooth as I had hoped, and due to that the page was offline for almost a day while I had to troubleshoot and figure out what went wrong.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused. But as far as I know, we are fully operational.

If there are any other problems, please let me know by sending me a private message, or putting it in the comments under here.

Thanks for your patience.

I'm happy to announce the new addition to our admin team: @Die4Ever@retrolemmy.com

He's mostly known as the owner of mods4ever and all associated projects. Including, but not limited to randomizers for games like Duke Nukem 3D and Unreal, working on Scummvm's Groovie engine, and their lemmy page housing communities for said randomizers and on there you can find your main stop for the "The 7th Guest" game series: !stauf_mansion@lemmy.mods4ever.com.

He also used to speedrun The 7th Guest.

If you have any questions, you can message him or me directly on here or leave a comment.

Welcome to the team!

After a user created half a dozen accounts in a span of 24 hours to "battle" a ban on a lemmy.world community, I'm regretting to inform that I have added an application questionnaire to the account creation process.

I want this instance to be a inviting and hassle-free home for any enthousiast of the retro kind. And unfortunately this means it's a little less accessible, and might take a bit before your account can be in use.

I will get to your application in due time, and will check regularly every day.

I hope this will catch trolls and obvious abusers more easily before they become a pain in the ass of the mods of communities.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

If you have any questions or complaints feel free to reply to this post or send me a message.
