simon.vale : Thank you Pan :)
panpantom: well done Simon (SV17) first time on KX mp
signaller1: full with a q!
panpantom: KC: Palace seeks a signaller
simon.vale : I'm SV17
simon.vale : Yeh - but I'm a newbie - I'll need something easy to do
panpantom: Simon are you up for KX?
simon.vale : I'm joining
panpantom: any more joining KX?
arabianights: *hurray
arabianights: huray
panpantom: KX hosting details on forum
panpantom: I'll host a KX
simon.vale : I'm going to guess he isn't going to turn up
simon.vale : maybe not..
simon.vale : Haha - its not 10pm yet - patience ;)
arabianights: that said it this does kinda require the 10pm host guy to turn up...
arabianights: :)
simon.vale : And there weren't any spare platforms in Liverpool Street either
simon.vale : I made a huge mistake with the Liverpool Street Sim - I had the Bishopsgate Tunnel closed, and there was just a huge queue of 5 trains trying to get to Bethnal Green
simon.vale : Yeh that would be good - I'm not sure I trust myself with anything more
arabianights: cause it's not really possible to make a HUGE mistake with that
arabianights: or if you're completely new it might be worth asking to do the hertford loop
simon.vale : ok
arabianights: what normally happens is everyone is assigned a panel on a first come first served basis
arabianights: you will have to speak to the host about it but they will probably not want to link with a complete newbie cause there are lots of extra issues if you are a host (which you would have to be if you wanted to link)
simon.vale : as you can link sims together can't you?
simon.vale : I also have the Royston one - so I could just be left to that one as its simple enough ;)
simon.vale : Just installed it
simon.vale : Ok :)
arabianights: download simsig kings cross (and simsig main files) then wait for thread in the forum with details for the multiplayer
simon.vale : I'm a relative newb but I don't mind trying out a signalling session. What do I need to do?
Morsey: More KX?! Im up for it :P
arabianights: moi aussi
georgerb: KX @ 10pm - count me in please
jc92: sounds like a good plan :) I could look at hosting a late night Sim circa 10pm

Following a query elsewhere as to who administers the forum and WIKI I've added a full list here of the administrators and moderators (not sure exactly what the different access levels gives). There are a number listed that I was not aware had the permissions and some don't actively use their powers- possibly they did not no thay had them!!
Anyone listed who would prefer not to have the powers let us know below.

I've left the Admin list under contacts linked from the Forum Main Menu as the regular administrators with the contact email addresses. The others can be added if they indicate they wish to be.

Were we not made moderator so we can see the restricted forum section? I know I can't do anything more as removing messages from the Shout Box

You should be in the correct user group to enable you to see those restricted areas of the forum without needing to be a moderator.
That wasn't incorrect regulation - that was editing the timetable!

There are two access lists or each topic/thread/whatever, an Admin and a Reader level in a hirarchical structure, so a higher level can access areas with a lower level. The Mods are in the Admin level.

If I should be able to see and access the restricted (development) section on the forum (which I currently can) without being a mod, then I do not know why I am a mod. Like I said, being a mod doesn't give me extra powers on the forum. It does give me some more powers on the wiki though (are the forum and Wiki linked?).

I have never felt the urge to use any mod powers though. I only read the forum at the moment (but I do it every day, so that should count for something? ;))

Seeing them all set out like that highlights the large number of people involved.

I am watching the space on Tom OF's developer entry but nothing is happening :silly:

Thanks for the links/updates. I note there are two lists of testers and what they have/are testing, and a number od discrepencies between them. I've updated my own part of the lists so they are correct.

It seems like the Administration contact page is now returning a 404 error.
