Happy new year! Posted by Forfaox | Posted on January 01, 2008, 00:45:06
And so another year has passed, filled with all kinds of experiences, and we make way for the new year!

The staff of Dragon Realms wishes all of you a happy new year, and that many good things may happen

The new year also marks DR's birthdate, and this means that we are now four years old. It's been great seeing the community grow over the years, and how it has gained its own character. I hope that everyone will keep contributing to making DR better and better, so that we may call ourselves the best dragon community on the net

Have a good year!

Resigning of an administrator Posted by Etath SkyDragoness | Posted on November 27, 2007, 18:56:49
I would like to announce that I have decided to resign as administrator from Dragon Realms. This is not a sudden choice of mine as I have gradually moved away from this community the past half year. Four years ago it was since Forfaox, Stik, and I started on the planning of Dragon Realms and I feel very proud to have been here from the very start to shape the community while seeing it grow and mature, along with its members. This community may not be the largest dragonkin community around, but in my opinion, it is one of the most mature ones.

During my time as a member and an administrator of this community I have grown through the events and issues I have faced, either as a friend or as an administrator (or in worst cases, as both), and I feel now it is the time for me to move on. There are new desires I wish to fulfil and as my life has taken on a new stage there is less time I am able to put into my own doings, thus I need to prioritize my activities. Then there is nothing more I feel I can contribute to make Dragon Realms a better place than I have done through these 4 years.

My resignation will not affect the function of Dragon Realms in any way. Forfaox and Stik will keep making sure Dragon Realms will stay alive and the rest of the staff of this community is the best I could ever have asked for. I may no longer frequent Dragon Realms, but I will certainly not forget it. Whenever there would be time, I would fly by for a short visit.

Thank you all for these exciting years together in this community!

IMPORTANT: Forum and IRC rules update Posted by Etath SkyDragoness | Posted on November 16, 2007, 10:36:03
We would like to announce that the rules for Dragon Realms forum and chat has been updated. These are no changes that should affect your stay here, though, they were found needed to ensure a more pleasant stay for our members here and also to underline that laws does apply on the internet too.

For anyone who may wonder why Dutch laws would apply to Dragon Realms, it is simply because the main part of Dragon Realms is located in Netherlands. You are of course not expected to know Dutch laws, most people do not know the laws of the countries they live in, but by following common sense you would likely not bump into them either. We are neither going to be a police; we do trust our members to not use Dragon Realms for anything obviously illegal (such as drug dealing) and of course the privacy of our members will be held in top most regard.

The changes in the rules of Dragon Realms are the following written below this sentence, and these will be valid from now on along with the other rules found in the About-section.

For the forum:
Quote:

  • Impersonating someone or using false identity (intentionally making others believe you are someone else) may in severe cases result in a forum ban (temporary or permanent) without warning.
  • Using the Dragon Realms forums and private message system to maintain illegal activities and/or on purpose break Dutch laws may in severe cases result in a forum ban (temporary or permanent) without warning.


For the IRC network:
Quote:

  • Impersonating someone or using a false identity (intentionally making others believe you are someone else) may result in a network-wide ban (temporary or permanent) without warning. This includes, but is not limited to:
    • Impersonating other members of Dragon Realms
    • Impersonating people from other forums and websites
    • 'Stealing' other members' nicknames through nickserv without permission, with or without registering it.
    • Performing a /ghost on other members
  • Using the Dragon Realms IRC network to maintain illegal activities and/or on purpose break Dutch laws may in severe cases result in a network-wide ban (temporary or permanent) without warning.

Dragon Realms has got new volunteers! Posted by Etath SkyDragoness | Posted on May 15, 2007, 10:59:56
We are happy to announce that Dragon Realms has got new volunteer workers! As real life gets busier for some of us volunteers, we decided to increase our staff a little to ensure that we will manage to keep the community clean and smooth running. The volunteers were carefully selected among several good candidates and we are pleased with our new volunteers who already has been trying a bit on their posisions.

The new global moderator is Tysha. She has a long experience with running communities from before and has done a good job keeping them running for long time. She is also a very kind and helpful person who gives more than she takes, therefore we have great trust in her as a global moderator. Her tasks will be those of a global moderator; to keep the forums clean, solve eventual issues, be there to help our members, and aid us in taking decisions.

Our new staff is Sirius. He has a good ability to judge situations and has been more or less aiding us before. His experience with the kin-communities and the people in them is invaluable for us in the application system of Dragon Realms. Thus his tasks will mainly be to aid us in the application system of Dragon Realms, and he will also help us in taking decisions regarding members when the situation would make that be needed.

We have also got new IRC staff, ShimdraShaül. He is very active on the IRC of Dragon Realms, and he has a good sense of right and wrong in heated situations. He is still fairly new, but he has already proven his skills of an IRC operator dispite not having had the position. His tasks will be those of an IRC operator; moderating the channel #dragons and also aid us in keeping track of troublesome users. He will also be available for general help whenever he is around and that would be needed.

We warmly welcome our new volunteers and have a strengthened trust in that we will be able to keep this community clean and mature on the otherwise so increasingly chaotic Internet. *smiles*
