Ensidia

Hi all!

It's been a while since I posted any updates, but that doesn't mean we aren't working on improving the website for our community!

I just wanted to let everyone know that we finally have an RSS feed available. (This took me longer than I thought to implement.) The feed shows latest blogs and news posted on Ensidia.com. Here is the link: http://www.ensidia.com/rss.php

You can also find the link to the RSS feed in the site's footer. (Links at the bottom of the page.) You can now add that link to any RSS reader you use such as Google Reader, etc.

We have also fixed a couple of bugs and have been working on the site's loadtime. The site should load a lot faster now than it did a couple of months ago.

There are a couple of new things we are working on. I believe the next thing we will make available will be the Downloads section. More information about this will be available soon.

I would, once again, like to thank all the support and ideas/suggestions that have been submitted to me by email. Everything suggested is taken into consideration. We have some very exciting future plans for Ensidia.com. So, to all you supporters (even you haters), thank for everything!

Man, that was a hell of a day yesterday with all the hits. Thanks though! :D

Anyway, just wanted to give you guys an update regarding the website. We are working on speeding loading, as well as thinking about future growth of the site. You should notice a big difference in loading speed today, as well as the next few days as we optimize the website. This should have been done before, but other things came up which were a little more important at the time. If we only knew saronite bombs had a 300 views per second affect, I would have created saronite bomb pills and taken them every morning! :D

Also, I would like to mention that if people are having issues logging in, removing your browser cookies for ensidia.com will solve this issue. I have changed a couple of things in the login system, and that could affect SOME people, not ALL. Again, if for some reason you try to login and it does nothing, just clear your browser cookies and it will fix the issue. (NOTE: You do not have to clear all cookies, just clear for ensidia.com.)

Also, a little off-topic, I would like to personally thank the people who have anonymously and directly sent us messages regarding recent events, motivating us. I would also like to thank those on IRC who were kind enough to PM me a couple of good ideas for the site. It's for you guys I do what I do and love doing what I do. Thank you. :)

As for what we will be doing with the website in the future: There are quite a few things which I cannot discuss yet, but right now I'm planning on creating a "light" version of the site where it mainly will only show news and blogs. This will mainly be focused for mobile users. So that's coming soon(tm).

Any questions you would like to ask me, you can send me a PM. No spam, or I will saronite bomb you. I'm serious. Ask Afasia.

Hey all!

Some of you might have noticed during the day that at times some features or pages were unreachable. Well, this is due to the fact that we were updating some files with some new updates. I will make a bigger list soon, but some of the things you may notice are:

-When you receive a friend request, the icon up top (just like PMs) now changes orange, for easier visualization.
-Comments no longer show as 5 per page, but instead, 20!
-Some paging updates were done.
-Some styling was done on some pages, including our Blue Tracker.
-Many other minor changes not worth mentioning.

We have many other changes coming soon, including an update to the Profile pages and Gallery pages.

I would also personally like to thank EVERYONE who has reported bugs/issues to us either by IRC, Forums, Comments, Private Messages, and MSN. We are so very grateful for all the support you guys have given us to make ensidia.com better for yourselves! :)

Once again, thank you!

Hey all!

Just wanted to let everyone know about the DevBlog. Basically all bug fixes, new site additions, etc., will be blogged into this category so that everyone can easily keep track of the ensidia.com code & design updates.

I should have an update of some new additions and bugs which were found by our staff and you, the community, very soon! (tm)
