The Data Archive NOW with IRC!!!

Well it isn't much to look at so far,

But over the past few months i have been working on the Data Archive.

The idea behind the archive is for it to act as an RP resource, similar to the many guides and FAQ sites out there with the difference of being for RP. Not so much official LE stuff but more the player made RP's

There are a lot of good stories out there being made but if you join in the middle you dont know what the hell is going on.

If people can make reports on the RP's they can be posted on the data archive then when someone new comes along they can read up what has happened so far and jump right in.

It also contains small character summaries written by the characters owner, this way people could do a "background check" as though accessing their organizations database.

It also means they can understand someone's character better.

Attached to D.A. Is a "Drop site" This is a place to submit information to the archive or to discuss things with other RPers.

For the organizers of RP's there is a section hidden from public view where they can plan RP's together sharing the information easily between other organizers without spoiling it for the public.

The site doesn't look like much at the moment and am still working on making it look nicer but for the most part if is functional.

So to all RPers out there welcome to the Data Archive.

Looks pretty cool. Some pages are restricted to me. Is it supposed to be like that?

**Darkangelus**

The "access denied" page is for thinks that dont exist yet. think of it like a 404 error.

You can identify information that has been added because it either has the light blue time/date next to it, or the link itself is light blue

Added you're Data Archive to our links on the new ZIC blog that is under construction at the moment.

Looks nice so far, great work! I'll have to get a profile submitted.

**Darkangelus**

Well everyone is welcome except people that just want to cause trouble.
Please tell your friends it would be great to have a large collection of character historys
One thing i am keen on is getting a few faction histories, i will have a word with Pelaya see if i can get her to do one for UVE.

I know there are some RP factions out there that take pride in the events they have shaped in the matrix, Im sure the Tetragrammaton for example have a very long and active history.

As people can see by my sig I have now made an IRC server for use by the MxO community

It is serperated into 5 chanels

#general
For general conversation between everyone

#Trade
For buying and selling various items (SOE rules for the selling of ingame items for real world cash will be upheld)

#syntax
for syntax specific information

#recursion
see above

#vector
same again

If more are needed i can add them but unlike most servers you cant just make a channel at whim.

If anyone has any questions on how to join or any questions at all about the Data Archive i will be happy to answer them.
