SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

A small (but necessary) change

When you type //www.therpgsite.com, the title of the website is "- Pages" instead of "The RPG Site: blah blah blah" or something like that.

Now, I know that it seems a minor problem, but this distorts online search engines. I'm checking Google's Searchmash right now, and the problem is painfully obvious. Could someone please change this?

An easy change that I have no fucking clue how to do... hopefully some other Admin does, and will read this. And ideally, will tell me how to do it for future instances...

The html code in your page has two sections: head and body.

In the head section, there is a line: pages

Simply change the word "pages" to whatever you like, and it will show up at the top.

Dude, what you said to me had may as well have been in Urdu.

What HTML code, in what page? How the fuck do I access it?

I checked in the admin controls for the bulletin board but I couldn't seem to find anything.

HTML is the coding language that webpages are written in, and isn't this why you have a programming admin? (Did you get someone for that? If not, I could maintain the site for you.)

I don't intimately know your bulletin board software, but it isn't an admin function in other webware packages that I'm familiar with. This is about editing the page code itself, like looking the behind the scenes and changing stuff there.

If I'm not mistaken, the non-forum features of this site are an extension or hack, so Pooka would probably be the right person.

Specifically a hacked version of Drupal. vBulletin's got nothing to do with this site's header, which is why Pundit couldn't change it from here. Instead somebody's gonna have to wade through Drupal's controls to fix it.
Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what\'s on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide.

Well, technically that's UmaSama's job now, but I'm not sure if he is already trained.  We'll have to see.
