Riot Act 2

Hello and welcome to the new Riot Act website! Once you register on our forum, be sure to set up your character in your User Control Panel. It'll give you cool little icons and class-coloring around the site. If you're a Riot Act raider, your profile on the Raider Roster will be automagically updated with your character information.

This project has been quite the whirlwind tour in web development. Built in just twelve days, Riot Act 2 is the culmination of a goal I set for myself ever since I finished the first design seven months ago.

Of course, building a site at such a lightning pace is going to guarantee that there are errors (some potentially fatal) floating around the site. I used Riot Act's cadre of officers as my guinea pigs for the first phase of user-testing, and they've helped me stomp out a number of obvious bugs. Thank you Azamoth, Casagrande, and Winchestor. Azamoth in particular spent two hours late last night helping us debug a major problem with field labels.

However, the true test is opening the site to you scrubs my bestest friends. If you find anything wrong, ugly, or not working, please contact me either by posting a comment here on this post, in the forum, or by way of PM.

I have a mental checklist of things I'd like to improve, and I'll continue to work on polishing the site until my inner-OCD is satisfied.

Thank you and enjoy your new site.

  • One last thing. I can’t recommend Google Chrome more for this site. Anything that seems sluggish in Firefox or even Safari is completely fixed by using Chrome instead. I’m working hard to get the site to run smoother in all browsers, but until I do: get Chrome.

    This isn’t even specific for this site. Any website you visit will load quicker and feel smoother.

  • Yeah Chrome is pretty boss when sites have as much Javascript running as most of them do now. Web 2.0 hurray!

  • Wow! This updated site looks AMAZING! Nice job Arilyn. Hope everything’s well with you.

  • This is lovely.  Wow!  Major kudos to the web designer.
