Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

Shi'na: Well...the T'au Empire does not officially recognize royalty, therefore any auxiliary soldiers given as tithe to the Empire, and traders, and T'au garrisons on your world will address you as a leader, not a royal. With that out of the way..where shall we set up our Embassy?

"Where indeed..." Elacia says as she casually walks over to the edge of the landing pad, which hangs on the edge of the entire hangar. She looks down to the city bellow, Pia Mater, her keen eyes scanning the area. "Ah! I found a nice plot of land right there." She says and with a wave of her hand, a tendril of energy forms from her finger tips and zips off towards the empty plot of land within the city. The tendril of energy seeks out a small electronic box located in the middle of the plot, when it touches the box, trap doors open around the edges of the plot, large concrete walls rising up to seal off the plot, letting everyone around know that the plot is now occupied and no longer on the market. 

 

"Will that location suffice?" Elacia asks as she points to the plot, which is located in the Foreign Affairs district, where other embassies are located.

*Shi'na is unfazed, having seen the ethereal caste perform better miracles, but smiles.*

Shi'ne: That'll do!

*she points, sending the crane and hundreds of Earth-Caste construction drones in that direction.*

Should you desire a Fire Caste presence as well? Our warriors are well-versed in planetary defense, and equally well-stocked enough to promote free equipment and weapons trading with your military organizations.

"That sounds good, though we don't have much need for defenses. I hope I don't come off as rude, I'd normally accept that offer if we didn't already have the best guardians the universe has to offer. Speaking of, I'd like you to meet Klinge." Says Elacia as a man with long silky black hair, wearing simple clothes like a white v-neck and baggy jeans. "Meister Klinge, this is Shi'na, a Tau diplomat. She just offered help with military defenses, and that's why I mentioned you." 

 

Klinge nods and bows to Shi'na as a sign of respect.

 

"Klinge here is our most skilled blades meister, he serves as our primary defensive unit." Says Elacia. "He's held off entire armies with only Renegade."

 

"Thou flatter me, your Highness." Says Klinge.

"Perhaps you need a demonstration of his skill." Says Elacia before holding her hand up to her right ear. "All sentry turret are ordered to fire upon me at once." 

 

At that moment, literally hundreds of dual barreled turrets are materialized onto the walls of the hangar, all of them aim at Elacia and open fire immediately. Before the storm of bullets can reach Elacia, Klinge dashes between her and the turrets, the bullets deflecting just before him. To the naked eye, it seems like the bullets are being deflected by nothing, but under closer examination, it can be seen that Klinge is deflecting each individual bullet with a swing of Renegade, his motions so fast they cannot be seen easily. With his free hand, Klinge draws a magic circle in the air, an identical circle appearing above every turret. Klinge clenches his fist and a dagger shoots out of every circle, hitting each turret in their weak point, causing them all to explode. 

 

"Does that help?" Elacia asks with a smile once everything calms down, Klinge putting Renegade away.

*this only causes her to worry a little more.*

Shi'na: W-well..if you believe it helps...I will say that you must have a small Fire Caste presence in case of threats to the Tau'va from within.

*more cranes go down to the Embassy area, building in a Cadre Headquarters. It looks like a full base is being built there, as thorough as the Earth Caste Drones are.*

Shi'na: Now, I must leave, but my Fire Caste guards are to stay and oversee the construction. The Ambassador and his Bureaucratic associates will be here shortly to take up residence in the embassy.

*Shi'na and her escort return to the ship, and it lifts off and flies away, leaving the dozen Fire Warriors there in a neatly organized formation.*

(VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE)

*In the hallowed halls of the Ordo Xenos, Inquisitor Lord Azkar read the new auspex scans of the Hades subsector..and noticed a new planet. He immediately summons the Autosavant assigned to that sector.*

Autosavant: You..summoned me, my lord?

Azkar: Yes, I noticed there seems to be a new planet in the Hades subsector. Care to explain this?

Autosavant: IT appeared on our scans a day ago. IT could possibly be a Daemon world newly spawned from the Warp, but it shows no signs of Chaos taint, and the Tau have been seen flying to and from it.

Azkar: Damnation...could it be a parallel to their own planet? Are we to face yet more suddenly advanced species?

Autosavant: There ARE confirmed semi-orbital structures.

Azkar: DAMNABLE HERESIES! We must attack while the iron is still hot, and eliminate the xenos before they spread! Fetch me Inquisitor Arkus!

*the autosavant hobbles off, and a minute or so later, Arkus and his retinue come in.*

Arkus: Yes, lord?

Azkar: Arkus, though your methods be questionable, your presence is needed in the Hades subsector. We have a possibly new Xenos presence. I am placing you in command of 4 Imperial Guard regimen-

*at this, a Canoness barges in*

Canoness: THIS NEW PLANET CARRIES HERETICAL TAINT!

Azkar: ...no, Canoness, it does not. Only xenos.

Canoness: HERETICS! WE WILL BURRRRRNNNNN THEEEEEEMMMMMM!!!

*she storms off*

Azkar: *sigh* Emperor-damned Hereticus. Looks like you have the Sororitas behind you as well.

Arkus: Need they shoehorn themselves into every Inquisitorial affair?

Azkar: No matter. You have 4 regiments of Imperial Guard at your back, and a pair of Deathwatch Kill Teams.

Arkus: Excellent...but all not needed. I wish to have the Astra Militarum fleet on standby on nearby Hades V. I may be able to single-handedly end these xenos from the inside.

Azkar: Very well.

Arkus: The Tau of the subsector may know my name, however. I must assume a false name.

Azkar: Do as you must.

*And so, the Ordo Xenos sends Arkus and his forces to the subsector, and with Warp jumps, they get there pretty quickly.*

 

 

*Now, the Derexian's radar (If they have any) can pick up a small ship, headed to the planet...*

"Your Highness! Scanners have reported another incoming ship, they have ignored all contacts, greetings and then warnings." Calls Miyuki as she rushes up to Elacia.

 

"More foes, possibly?" Elacia asks.

 

"The possibility is high." Replies Miyuki. 

 

"Curses... Keep the defenses on guard and prepare for possible attack." Says Elacia before Miyuki salutes and runs off again.

*And so, the craft lands on the platform, the pilot servitor assuming so through a logic route, and the ship is able to be actually studied. It has a gold trim, with a few big I shaped symbols emblazoned on it, the metal about them a color of grey. But Elacia can surely recognize one thing: The golden aquila, stamped on the nose, the same aquila seen o the shoulderpads f the Imperial Guard she encountered. No doubt this ship is from the same people who attacked her.

Within, Arkus and his retinue gear up.*

Arkus: Dearest members of my retinue, your orders are to hold your fire at all costs and by all means. Interrogator Martum, You will aid me in the capture of a specimen, and it's ensuing interrogation and dissection. Kor-Tekhs, scan and record everything, map it in detail, and transmit it to Inquisitor Lord Azkar as you go. Hospitaller Alena, I advise you hold your rage until we are being driven off the planet, lest I shoot you myself. Am I clear?

Martum: Yes, Inquisitor.

Alena: Fine.

Kor: Beginning scans.

 

*The craft's door opens, and the Inquisitor and his retinue step out, as completely calm as can be. IT seems like the area around them is mildly distorted; on closer inspection, it seems to come from the tall Inquisitor's golden, glowing Rosarius, maybe as a shield of sorts. The group as a whole eminates a sort of unsettling feeling, ESPECIALLY from Arkus, who resonates a feeling of dread due to being a Psyker.*

*Arkus clears his throat*

Arkus: I am...Ambassador Rolan, of the Imperium of Man. We have come for, well, negotiatory purposes. I was informed that a member of your race was...attacked, shall we say, by a group of heretics. Is that right, autosavant?

Kor: Yes, my lord.

Arkus: Yes. Anyways, from where shall we discuss matters of treatise...preferably in private, lest the noise of the public dampen negotiation.

*The Sister Hospitaller can't help but glare at the xenos.*

"For negotiations, you'll be talking to me." Says Caligo, having shown up moments ago with Valgus. "Valgus, take the Princess and head to the castle." He says to Valgus before turning back to Arkus. 

 

"I am Caligo, official Nexus Negotiator. I'd be glad to make negotiations. But I'll have to ask only those needed for the negotiations to join us, the rest of your men will need to stay here." Caligo says with a smile, but even with a convincing, harmless smile, Arkus can tell that Caligo radiates danger, just like himself, possibly letting Arkus know that Caligo is a close if not perfect match when it comes to danger. "If you'll follow me, we can get started."

*Arkus actually gives off a small smile. He had a fun challenge.*

Arkus: Martum, you come with me, Kor, you as well. Sister, you stay with the ship.

 

*the hospitaller grumbles something about filthy xenos and goes back in the ship.*
