Character Switching

I have some exciting news:

To help players switch between their OOC account and IC accounts more easily, we have installed the "Account Switch" mod on the forum. With this, you can enter the User Control Panel to link accounts together.

One account (your OOC account) is the main account and your character accounts can be linked to it. All you need to do then is use the drop down in the top right corner of the forum to change accounts - so you do not need to log out, type passwords and names, and log back in again each time you post as a different character.

Currently, the CSS styling of the various components is still botched so things may look a little more ugly than usual. We are working hard to fix this, for Firefox first and other browsers after that. Do feel free to report anything you consider strange, unusual or counter-intuitive, so we can fix it :)

To inform the users about the actual use of this:
  1. Go to the User Control Panel (or use the link in the upper-left corner of the site, next to the "X new messages").
  2. Click 'Manage Linked Accounts'
  3. Enter your own password
  4. Enter the name of the account you want to link
  5. Enter that account's password (to see if you are really that account)
  6. Hit "Link Users".
  7. Repeat for infinite linked accounts.

Most of the CSS should now be fixed to be in line with the rest of the site. If you find anything else, please let us know!
