 Player bios

I had no idea people were so attached to these damn bios! :P Here they are, safe and sound: http://server.war2.ru/biographies/

Also made a nifty new form to let people automatically submit them to the site (require admin approval first ofc): http://server.war2.ru/submit-your-biography/

Free bombers to the first ten people to submit a biography with the new form!

Great stuff mousey Smile

One thing. You could bold it like this ....
Main War2 Name: AcidGangsta
Other War2 Names: Ag
When you Quit: 12-20-01
etc...

or change the color Smile

AND a summary of all the nicks on the top page (in a grid or any format that seems good) instead of having to scroll for players!

misa thinks it'd be gooder to start a poll & let the crowd decide whose biography should be posted next. after all, it should be entertaining n interesting to lots of players and at the moment it might be spammed with bios of self-centered, unknown n worthless faggots.
fraction of the w2 history yo, not a personal blog!!

srsly tho, wouldnt it be awsum? to have a poll or w/e every month or so! Additional prestige plus it would encourage players to visit the site!

Thanks LB! Yeah, I thought formatting would be good as well, but tbh I just didn't fucking feel like doing it at the time. Straight importing the content was time-consuming enough on its own, but, I probably will eventually! c: New entries will have nice formatting automatically applied too.

I put all the names in a three column grid for now to reduce the scrolling somewhat, but I will probably come up with a more intuitive way of displaying content like this in the future. Thanks for feedback!

Polling might be fun, but we'd need "worthy" people to actually send in bios first before they can be voted on. If you want to try and organize that, be my guest.

Dunno, but here's a drunken bio: http://server.war2.ru/biographies/drunken/

i thoght the other way around - worthy, prominent peeps would make bios after they win the poll
