FLCN V 2.0 Applications

See, in these days the FLCN should link to every FL site even if they only have it on the homepage. Except if you have another idea how to hold the rests of the community together. I don’t say that the FLCN is a right, I say that your rationalism should explain the natural need to link everyone in these days. The starport claims to be one of the leading FL community sites, but this behaviour doesn’t legitimize that claim. Furthermore, I don’t think that w0dk4 wanted the hosters to make such rules. Well anyway, you must know what you’re doing, think about it.

AFAIK W0DK4 was even a co-creator of those rules.
Aigle-Imperial, without any offense and with the greatest respect, for me it seems that you write too many aggressive and offensive postings. You might want to check by yourself, just search for your own posts and think over it. Thank you.

The FLCN was created to link between all Freelancer sites. It wasn’t built so that some sites could freeload on others for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Is there any pragmatic or logical reason for not putting the bar other than technical issues (which is either your responsibility or is already being worked upon on our end).

I do not see why some sites should be allowed to be in the FLCN without displaying the bar. The rules clearly stated you had to show it; if you didn’t read the rules and slipped through or if you removed it afterwards, it’s your problem. We are trying to make this work both ways. The point is not to give you free traffic, it’s to make the overall community feel more tied together. The basic premise behind the bar was “leave no dead-end”, meaning you should be able to access all FL sites from any FL site. If you don’t put the bar, you’re going against that philosophy.

Remember that by not putting the bar, you’re effectively denying everyone else the ability to connect with your site. I wonder why all the other sites would have to link to you, but you wouldn’t be held up to the same standard.

As for the request to put it not just on a single, far-off page, it’s also because of the same philosophy. Yes, theoretically, you could put it up only in your “copyrights” page which nobody ever looks at, but that’d be stretching it don’t you think? Again, it’s just to make the community as a whole more connected; only putting it on a small subset of your pages which most of your visitors don’t look at anyways goes against that. Remember that this is a suggestion, however. I guess you’re free to do whatever you want as long as you have it somewhere that is still frequented a bit.

Question answered?

Yes, thank you.

But i can’t fullfill your request.
Problem: Our forum is php. I do have a bit knowledge of html/java. But i don’t know php.

Our board is standard stuff. Standard template. All what we have there is standard. A few weeks ago i sc** totally our forum to put in the shoutbox (put .xml file in). It did cost me a lot of trouble and a bit of creative mind to change our top picture. So i really don’t know how i must put this java script into the forum, without messing it up again.

Hope you satisfy that i only put it on all of the pages from our website.
And that i only put a link to Starport on our frontpage in the links section of the forum.

Hi people.

On the page http://the-starport.net/community_network/ there is already a link to our community, Freeworlds, but that is an old link.

It should link to http://www.freeworlds-tow.net

Could you change that?
Then I will place the FLCN bar on our websites.

We posted in our Public forum on the FLC our reasons for Removing the FLCN…

on multiple occasions or whenever there is a problem with SP hosting. it effects our Sites in a negative way… Load times mostly.

now we let this go on for Quite awhile and thought it would be sorted out . it never was

we continue to link to the SP but will no longer Run the FLCN

Feel free to Remove the FLC and UV … if you have any questions feel Free to PM me on the FLC…

@WW: If you want, I could take a look at your template file.

@Qi: We’ll update the link ASAP.

@Soup: Starport’s been down a handful of times. I wouldn’t call that excessive. I’m still looking into a solution.

the Lord clan Thanks for adding us in the FLCN.

FriendlyFire,

I have installed the top bar on the main website page and in the phpbb3 forum, but you haven’t changed the link to our community yet.

Our forum has 1558 members, and 35 GB/mo traffic. I think it’s one of the top communities.

Please also change the name of our community. Freeworlds and Tides Of War have merged. It is now called:

Freeworlds-ToW

http://www.freeworlds-tow.net/

I’ve been studying algebra and physics for the past three days nonstop. I’ll update the FLCN for all current changes whenever I actually have 10-15 mins to do it, no need to get upset or defensive about it.

I apologize.
I didn’t mean to come on strong.
Take your time, no problem.

Freeworlds, Lord, Discovery USA added. Exodus removed.

Remember to refresh your page, otherwise you might not see the changes.

Sorry Friendly, but that is not right.

The link Freeworlds is still there, it can be removed.

The new link you made is called
Freeworlds: Tides of War

That should be
Freeworlds-ToW

The link address is ok.

Whoops… Was sure I had it removed already.

NOW it should be good

As has been plastered all over the site, the FLCN has been updated. See the main topic for details.

Since many sites removed the bar due to the unreliability of the site, I’m extending the grace period by two weeks so that people who wish to may add the bar back with the new code.

This code is hosted on Google, so any problem with The Starport will not affect it!

Hi, I’m the leader of the LSF clan (main server - Tekagi’s Treasure).
I would like to apply our site at http://www.lsf-clan.tk/ for the clan list.
The clan has existed for roughly 4 months, so it shouldn’t be a
problem.

Considering it’s the holiday season, we won’t get mad if you guys take some time to review our request. take your time.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: After consulting our site hosting, my settings won;t let me edit the HTML and add the bar to the page… I think this is going to be considered a problem.
