Title: Argent Archives
Post by: Kozgugore on June 09, 2015, 03:35:40 PM
Now that our move to Argent Dawn is just about complete, there's a little website I'm sure some of you have already heard of in the past, but I'd like to address nonetheless: The Argent Archives.

In short, this website can be considered a wikipedia for all RP and characters on Argent Dawn. There's character profiles, guild profiles, stories, even notice boards and the occasional prizes. We've already made a guild entry (along with a few orcs to go with it) right here (http://www.argentarchives.org/node/158217), so give it a look and if you've taken an interest, make sure to add your character's profile to it as well and link him/her to the guild for all others to see! If you need any help in regards to content or pictures, I'm sure any one of us are able to help you, so don't hesitate to ask!

The plus-side is that if you've made a profile in the Red Blade Records section of our forums, you can basically copy-paste from one to another and make your entry in about five minutes!

Just a side note. That website had issues in the past, or so I read around the realm forum.
Things related to art claim, mild dramas with individual members and the website's administration on which profiles go "missing", etc etc..

Just a heads up.

My profile is up and done now! Added 34 stories too (just the Sadok ones, I won't upload the 10 or so Luk stories yet).

I guess I'm now in the business of making people's AA banners. <.<

Besides an incident in which a rogue admin (who has since been removed from his position) deleted a score of nodes, there haven't been any major screw-ups on the AA team's part. It's perfectly safe to use. :-)

I'd make an addition, but i don't think Thrork will be worth it, and Krogon has no place having a bio there ;o

nice tool though! nice to see it being made use of.

Though If I may make a suggestion? may be prudent to update the 'story so far' with the guild one, it has a lot of history missed out =D

Added Trak's profile!

Just a note, you have to write [[Orcs of the Red Blade]] instead of Orcs of the Red Blade in the guild feed to tag your profile to the main guild page. Otherwise, it'll be hard to find.

Here's a ranks-graphic I knocked up for the AA page.

Oh, and further to Trak, since I noticed you hadn't made use of the full space allotted for the banner, I quickly knocked this up for you:

As for the more recent history, that is yet to be updated for when I find the time for it.


Brilliant work Sadok!
You're welcome as far as the wooden frames go. Not that I'd appreciate credit where credit's due or anything, nope. <_<

Hm. Though I shall remain a little skeptical (since what are the chances of happening again since it already happened at least once as far as I'm aware), I will consider doing something on the archives in the future.. unless something proves me that my doubts hold some value and not just me being neurotic.
Thank you for the info though!

Plus avatar-pics for this forum from the past banners, just in-case those peeps are interested:

Added both profiles for Rhonya and Kyrazha!
Plus a crapload of stories. About 30 for Rhonya, and Kyra around a total of 15, though some files are multiple stories in one.

Shout out for Shield (http://www.argentarchives.org/node/169247) and Deepfury (http://www.argentarchives.org/node/169459) who posted their orcs' profiles on the AA earlier this month! Could always use some more shiny Red Blade profiles out there to show them our awesomeness! For that matter, don't forget you can post your profiles on these very own forums in the Red Blade Records (http://orcsoftheredblade.com/forum/index.php?board=47.0) as well!

Extra kudos go to Kogra in that case!

And on top of that, creating a profile either here or on the AA is a great way to immortalize your orc once and for all, of course!

Sakinra's (http://www.argentarchives.org/node/174394) exists on there. Albeit mostly unloved. Gotta make some more for her.
