Since we are not currently charging for membership, we can’t afford the SSL license to get that darned “unsafe site” warning. Working on it.

[PohjantahtiForum Editor @pohRank: Diety]

At just over 3 yrs, AHF is FINALLY about to hit a 1,000 posts. One of the most amazing contributing members in our short time is Beric. He is a HUGE part of why we are about to hit 1,000.

Just fixed the Events Calendar feature! You will see the “Events Calendar” link in the right column (of any Forums or Topic page) just below the “Usual Suspects” & “Who’s Online”.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Happy Holidays everyone! This year we are celebrating Yule in the far North of Finland, at Santa’s Secret Workshop. From now til Dec. 31st. come join in!

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

HOLY COW!!! It is Anachronous History Forums 3RD BIRTHDAY!! I totally forgot.

---

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

I am getting discouraged, no other members have been here in WEEKS!

---

[PohjantahtiForum Editor @pohRank: Diety]

It is actually happening, more AW/ASers are returning/arriving to AHF. We are trying so hard to reach out to AW/ASers to invite them to AHF. If you know of anyone to invite, please do!

[ZiyiForum Moderator @nebibitRank: Diety]

Under 2 different names Anachronous History Forums took on a new life with the new name about 2 1/2 years ago. However, this project is nearing 4 years, 2+ of which was poorly named as Atavistics. It has finally, slowly started expanding beyond the 1st failed version of this concept. 2 1/2 years into this new incarnation, it is starting to move faster, grow much larger. AW refugees have mostly populated the site, barely exceeding 30 members. This is it though, this is going to keep growing, getting better. Thanks to all of you for being a part of this.

[ΕκάτηForum Editor @hekateRank: Diety]

Just saw this statistic, it’s insane!!!”Most users ever online (here on AHF) were 125, on 2020-01-17 @ 2:29 am“

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Great news. AHF can be translated into 104 languages by clicking the w/ 2 clicks… BUT it is not working on mobile devices yet, despite my prowess. Stay tuned!

[ZiyiForum Moderator @nebibitRank: Diety]

Interesting! AHF has just over 50% female personae. I think that is awesome!

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

ATTN all members, need your thoughts: I figured-out how to split my Draic Design site from Anachronous History Forums. Do any of you even care that they are connected? Does it detract from your experience on AHF? If you all decide to split the sites it will cost me $80 more/yr. bringing Ops costs to more than $300/yr., which would bring me closer to having to charge members for extra functions.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Thank you for figuring that out Ziyi!!!
@nebibit

[ZiyiForum Moderator @nebibitRank: Diety]

FINALLY figured out why avatars weren’t showing up on Topic replies! That was really bugging me, a lot. Yyyyyes! AND, now you members can do Image, text (HTML incl.!) “signatures” below your replies. Please let us know if you want one. Eyvisl, Pohjantahti, Ipskakt, MeryetNit, Ziyi & Mogh (of course) have them on our replies & Forums. Check it out!

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Big thank you’s to Beric, Dervla, Loegaire, Denarius for your monthly donations! I will not forget to mention Leah Enkidu’s contribution! It seems pathetic to say that I am excited that we have exceeded 30 members, hoping for many more. Please let anyone who you think may be interested know about Anachronous History Forums (AHF)!

---

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

I have great news!! I just did the costs/loss report for AHF. The yearly operational costs for AHF are only $260 & $66.60/yr is being supported by monthly donations from Beric, Dervla, Loegaire and Denarius! I will not forget to mention Leah Enkidu’s contribution! Thank you all VERY much. Us broke-ass owners are not even middle-class earners, we do this out of love for this and the company of people like you, whether you donate or not.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Since our poorly named 1st incarnation (Atavistics) started in -I think- November 2015, that will be our site birthday. Atavistics, & that name were completely erased for what is now Anachronous History Forums.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Badge & point system in place. Go look at your Profile and Topic replies, you will see some changes!

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Congrats to Mangas Cochise @mangascochise & Beric @beric_debenkah for being our 1st ever Scribes! Scribe status is NON-obligational, it is a way to honor those members who just pour out the amazing content and add to the structure (for the content) around AHF. Thanks for your massive contributions!! AHF would not be where it is now without your efforts. Thanks from the AHF staff @eyvisl (Eyvisl Yngling) @pohjantahti (Poh) @nebibit (Ziyi) @mer (MeryetNit)

---

[PohjantahtiForum Editor @pohRank: Diety]

Yeah, this is starting to feel right. Finally y’all are coming together here at AHF! Love it.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Hello AW/ASers! Pretty much all of you are AW/ASrs. It is so exciting to have all of you here! You do not have to do this but I want to tell you who I was on AW. I was Eyvisl Yngling, Mogh Roith Baoisgne, Ipskakt Aha, et cetera.

---

[PohjantahtiForum Editor @pohRank: Diety]

I’ll go next. From AW & Pan I was Pohjantahti, Ziyi, Nebibit, Okohke mainly.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

If anyone wants to celebrate Lughnasadh on August 1, post your interest here please. Even if we don’t decorate this time and just get to know eachother and get silly!

---

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

ATTN: members. If you do not like your “@name” we can change it even though it says that you cannot. Please contact me @eyvisl if you want to do so. Clicking on the @name takes you to a members profile so you can message them or read about them if they have made a bio or home link. @leah-enkidu for example, I made The Kash Bowl an example home idea for you, change it if you want or add as many damned home-links as you like folks. No limitations for you guys. Later on, new members may have to pay for such but anyone here who is already a member will not ever have to pay.

---

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

AHF has been getting 20 to 40+ spam or hacker sign-ups PER DAY! I don’t get it, I think it has to do with the web host and their new pay feature to block such, that I refuse to buy. They are literally opening the door to our site. I know this because it coincided EXACTLY to the release of that feature.

Profile banner editor is fixed!! BTW, most of you Founders should have the new banners, please feel free to change it to something that you prefer more if you like. The new Founders Profile Banner is VERY good. Enjoy! For Ziyi, I made a very special banner. Check this out: Ziyi @nebibit

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Holy cow! AHF is actually coming to life, bit by bit, more and more. Thanks to those of you that are contributing all of this amazing new material! Special thanks -in particular- to @beric & @mangascochise for an extraordinary amount of very informative & interesting posts. You two are making AHF legitimate, worthy of a long session of reading! And thanks to all oof you for being here whether you just pop by to say hi or socialize, you are also a part of why AHF is coming to life. We still don’t even have 50 members but we’ll get there! Please contact anyone you can from AW/AS days and let them know that this incarnation of our project is going to stay, we are going to do this. Thanks folks!

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

Let’s do something for Midsummer! Need help with ideas please. Also, we need to pick a location.

---

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

I want to give a big thanks to Mangas Cochise for content contributions to AHF. Mangas is the biggest contributor so far & we are so grateful!! Mangas Cochise is the Member of the Year in my opinion.
@mangascochise

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

We are so excited about where we are with AHF! It is time for all of us to reach out to AWers we know & all history geeks like us. Lets get this party started! Thanks to all of you for helping fill this site out and warm it up.

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

It’s live! Anachronous.net. Once we get enough people on here we can split my brannigandraic.com site from the anachronous.net and begin memberships (for the newer members, not you Founders here already). We will keep this extremely cheap for those new members… if we ever get any. :/ I’m struggling to find a way to get people here. This site is looking great and has reached full functionality, we are ready.

---

[Eyvisl YnglingForum Editor @eyvislRank: Diety]

We’ve been getting membership requests daily but… each and every single one has been bogus. This site has continuously been under attack, no joke. Dozens of people try to log-in or even hack their way in, most are from Russia, Ukraine, N.Korea. I can’t even count how many attacks I’ve stopped. This isn’t paranoia, this is real stuff!

The Bardic College is reopened

[Mangas CochiseParticipant @mangascochiseRank: Involved Member]

“The amount of progress in the last couple of days is nothing short of amazing. Most of it is back-end (server-side) stuff but it adds to the functionality & usability for users. Please let us know if you are willing to volunteer to write up for hoods let us know. BTW, they have to be done a certain way.”

 

Send info, I’ll write hoods to spec.  ATM in the Americas.

 

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

@cidwmsilure You now have the access to post whatever you want. Let me know if you need a Welsh city to do it in, for example.

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

IMPORTANT: The ferocity of hacks and bots from (specifically) Russia & Ukraine has been brutal. If you recommend anyone to join us gimme a heads-up if you can. I may not be able to contribute as much content while dealing with this. If I am not available then @pohjantahti, @anarane can reach me 24/7/365.

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

Need to test your style coding in a forum or topic? Introducing the ARCTIC TESTING FACILITY! A miracle in modern safety & technology… not really. It’s just so we don’t all go make a mess of things when we are experimenting. 😉 This is a WordPress site, coding is different in here. Coding that worked on AW or Pan won’t necessarily work here, so test away! 👍

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

ALSO, please let me know if you want additional forum structure (Regions, Realms, Kingdoms, …) for different areas below (or different than) what has been made so far. For example, in order to make The BlueDragon Inn & Tavern, we had to make a few (currently still blank) forums first. We had “The Western Isles>Eire (Ireland)>Leinster>” & THEN we were able to place the BlueDragon Topic in that Forum. SO, please let us know what you want to see. We do NOT have to do the write-ups first! The structure is what happens until we do the write-ups.

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

Since we are just a skeleton crew I’ve decided to remove the categorization option for groups. Until we have a rich & vibrant community here, I am going to keep the focus “on-the-boards” as it were. I would prefer all activity be out in the open for now to show a higher level of activity than may otherwise be apparent if hidden in groups.

[Mogh RoithForum Editor @branniganRank: Site Owner]

Well, here we go again. Atavistics is now Anachronous & is taking shape! Stay tuned.
