Hey all,

This is a thread you all can use to ask me specific questions regarding the forums, or to report threads of inappropriate language or content. You can also do these things over Visitor Messages and Private Messages, but I wanted to make a central location for this content on the forums themselves.

Ah, the thread to come to. :p

Looks like there was a problem with a poll for a thread so a new one was created. Can you combine the two threads?

Just a refresher for you, the app description for treasure story says "new content will be released EVERY WEEK so the game continually gets better!" there hasn't been an update for almost 6 months!!! Team lava has a very poor business ethic. Other games are getting updates so when will treasure story get updated? You guys should really start to manage the games you have before you make new games or add a website or even update your forum. Get it together team lava.

Dear GroupMagma,
You said this is a thread to ask you a specific question. If you take another look at what I had posted you'll see that I did ask you a question. Let me help you out and ask again. Since some of the other team lava games are getting updates, will treasure story be one of them?????

Thanks; I've now updated the description of this thread. This should be about the forums specifically. (In answer to your question, I am not sure when Treasure Story will be updated next, and I can't speculate about when it might be.)

This forum has a search function, but hardly anyone uses it. A sticky topic up on the main forum page (as the first thing people see before entering the forums) with an FAQ, a list of known bugs and why they occur, and generally just suggesting that people search for their answer before asking a question would greatly reduce the same question being asked multiple times, and cut down on the number of topics the moderators have to read to answer everyone's questions.

05-18-11, 04:33 PM
Hmm...just a suggestion. I'm not sure if it's possible, but it's worth a try. When someone comes onto the forum for the first time, could they have a PM explaining that they should look for the Sticky common bug explanations before the start asking? This could be done differently, but that's the way I though if might work. Just it gets annoying if a SuperMod has posted a sticky thread about something and someone comes and asks about it. Thanks.

Why is it you don't want support emails posted on this?

1) Where was your message deleted?

2) i. because they're and confidential (although I'd argue that anyone can just forward them anyway, so even if they don't get put on the forums, people can still spread them around the web)
ii. Because GM says so. I tried to point to (2)ii.))being the main reason but, even though it put him in a better light than he's already in, he refused it and said that it was just because they were confidential.

You receive canned responses afterwards. You immediately get the automated one, then support reviews it and writes back. I'm afraid I spent more than 3 minutes typing that out, so I didn't see your update. And, whilst you may find the rules ridiculous, you still have to follow them if you wish to use TL services.

I am new to the forum and I think I agree with you. It would also help to have an area that new forum members are directed to so we could read how this whole Teamlava forums work, etc. Probably would cut down on a lot of time for everyone, esp. Monitors getting same question over and over again.
I came on to log a complaint, and honestly.. didn't know where to go, but had read many postings with GroupMagma and she responded fast, so I went to her.

@Shawn, this is likely due to having an Android device, which does not support screenshot capability. You can still compete in these events if you have another device/camera, and you can upload or embed the picture into the forums that way. Sorry for the added inconvenience.

Opinions tend to get heated in forums (which is partly a good thing -- I'm glad you guys are passionate about our games!), and I always encourage our users to please refrain from personal attacks in the forums. However, while this comment may not be a diplomatic way to deal with this situation, I don't view it as a direct attack against you, or any other user. Taylon's opinion should be able to be voiced, same as anyone's. :)

That being said, I think we could all stand to have a few more group hugs so we can all get along. :D

There are a couple of methods, but my preferred way is to upload the image to Photobucket. That way, the file is stored online, and you can copy the embed code straight from photobucket into a response in the forums. Let me know if you have any other questions. :)

Sorry that that's off topic to this thread, but I can't resist. I agree with all of that, especially the fact that the thread got heated. I might however, voice a complaint about annabella's conduct in that thread, because on the TL games Support wouldn't be happy with her saying one of the things that she did (I don't think; I'm not support, DON'T say I'm trying to impersonate an employee: to clarifyh everyone, I'm definately not!:p But I report things quite a lot. I'll leave it there because I don't want to now get accused of discussing disciplinary action! Your ToS say that they're not meant to be exhaustive, but this is prettyh difficult:/)

I'm passionate about TL certainly (you might have seen a thread about that:D)...I wish I could be moreso...but this isn't the right place to discuss that concern*. I think that's the last of my rambling post.xD

The community manager thread is typically used to report content on the forum which needs to be looked at/answered by a community manager/moderator.

If there is an in game issue with a player(s), including threats/inappropriate content should be addressed to TeamLava Support (support@teamlava.com). However actions will only be taken if TL Support finds that the comment is inappropriate.

Generally, you can find what is and isn't allowed at teamlava.com/terms. However, support@teamlava.com deal with cases individually and even if you think it infringes the ToS, it may not merit disciplinary action.

The avatars were disabled by Admin. although I don't know why...perhaps so that their posts stand out. But if possible, I would like that feature too.

Hello. For new members:

Yesterday.. or the day before I created a password using one of the Apps. I noticed while using the forums that the password for log in is set different from forum log in. :)

My issue:

When I come to the forums page forums.teamlava.com I can log in with the tool bar on the top right hand corner.
When I log out.. test logging into forum log in. (one with log in on webpage) .. typically pops up when you try to reply to a forum thread and you are not logged in.

It reads this message :
You have entered an invalid username or password. Please press the back button, enter the correct details and try again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? Click here!

I was originally trying to enter in my email address under the "Edit Password & E-mail" .. to see if I need to verify my account name via email. So that I can be a "Member" rather than "Junior Member". I think the issue is your website host the pw for log in/webpage, but the forum/vBulletin is stored separately.Hope this helps you guys :) I noticed other people were asking about having avatars, they would not be able to unless they could become a "Member" and the "Members Group" were allowed access to use Avatars.. which is set through VBullentin. Thanks all ~ Keep up the good work.

Hello. For new members:

Yesterday.. or the day before I created a password using one of the Apps. I noticed while using the forums that the password for log in is set different from forum log in. :)

My issue:

When I come to the forums page forums.teamlava.com I can log in with the tool bar on the top right hand corner.
When I log out.. test logging into forum log in. (one with log in on webpage) .. typically pops up when you try to reply to a forum thread and you are not logged in.

It reads this message :
You have entered an invalid username or password. Please press the back button, enter the correct details and try again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? Click here!

I was originally trying to enter in my email address under the "Edit Password & E-mail" .. to see if I need to verify my account name via email. So that I can be a "Member" rather than "Junior Member". I think the issue is your website host the pw for log in/webpage, but the forum/vBulletin is stored separately.Hope this helps you guys :) I noticed other people were asking about having avatars, they would not be able to unless they could become a "Member" and the "Members Group" were allowed access to use Avatars.. which is set through VBullentin. Thanks all ~ Keep up the good work.

I don't quite understand your issue. But press "remember me" when logging in and you will always be on when your IP comes onto the forums unless you log out.
Junior, Normal and Senior Membership to the forums is, I believe, related to the amount of posts rather than anything else. Hence, the Senior Members post more and are therefore probably more active than Junior or Normal Members.

I created my password using one of the Story Apps.. (either Nightclub Story or Zoo Story.. only two I use atm)
Today I logged into forums with: **Can only log in with this log in method at the moment**
http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa432/tarixian/Team%20Lava/Login-toolbar.png

This log in will not allow you to log in with the same password: **Cannot log in with this method at the moment**

I would not change my IP to log into this forum. I understand how different IP could deny a user access to log in. Security checks <3

Actually, the players with the blue name that are "Members" have been verified users to VBullentin. The black names are classified as a "guest" still.

Now that's an interesting discovery. GM...this might be something that you've been looking for:D Is this similar to the Edit and Signiture issues...it seems that all accounts made after a certain date don't have Edit, Signiture, Hyperlink etc. And we were clueless as to why. Is there a way to get verified for VBullitin right here right now or will I have to wait (sorry if that's a dim question...)?

Yes, I've noticed a few users complaining about different little issues, this is why they cannot edit their "My Profile" things :)
You would not be able to edit your signature / email address / change password ... all those different little things unless users are allowed to be verified with VBullentin.
I believe since they have it set up to create password in game, they would just need a command in place to copy that pass to VBulletin's saved passwords file.. we are each assigned a "Account ID" which is just a number :)

The Junior Members vs. Members are only titles; I don't believe there are any permission distinctions between them. As for the different User Groups, the only one outside of Admins and Super Mods that have any users in them are Registered Members, which make up our Community... i.e. you guys. :p

If they at least provided a good explanation why, instead of just "updates roll out slowly" maybe I wouldn't feel so put off.

I asked an I.T. Guy at work who said it didn't make sense. Mind you, he programs specific types of programs for windows environment, with a very specific audience and scope. But he says when he 'pushes' updates, its across the board and doesnt see why a game on apple or android platforms would be any different.

Then he gave me some exasperated ribbing over my iPad use because I'll be making his job harder shortly...I use it for work not just play .

So to recap, tell us why this rollout is slow, and we won't be so perturbed. Leave us hanging with what amounts to "just because" and perturbedness continues with paying customers ceasing to pay.

Anyways, at the hospital most of the afternoon. Not caring all too much about it at the mo., but will tomorrow...lol.

Rachael, there will much in life you can't help. On the grand scale, this is probably one of my least important annoyances so no worries. It's not worth your effort, it's just me pouting. But thanks for your willingness to try. have a good night.

This thread is for forum-related topics only (like the one below). The new appliances are not yet available for Android. They may not ever be, but I assume that TL will work on it for some point. However, we have no idea when that is.

I think that I know the thread you refer to (with a couple of ":mad:" faces?). GM has moderated this and you are, I think, correct to think that the language used there was highly inappropriate. And if you're incorrect then GM wouldn't have moderated.

TL Team,

First, much appreciate the fine, mind-numbing free games you provide. I truly enjoy RS BS CS and FS. I like getting bargains on the gems too. I have only one real issue: In FS, the last tab in the catalog sports an "add slot" for 25 gems, I am sure I am not the first person to vent on this. Please, remove it, I have better things to buy, rather than waste my gems on what I will eventually earn anyway. I guess I will just stop buying gems in the game so I don't waste my money and that stops revenue for TL. I'm sure it's an easy fix, how about it?

I downloaded the restaurant game. I still havent received the gems. Do I need to wait a few hours, days, what? Thank you very much.

Hi TL,

Thanks for creating such addictive, entertaining and graphically pleasing games!

As you may know, there are many frustrated Android players on these forums due to the android only bugs and
difference in gameplay between idevices and android. (which i know TL is working hard to fix)

I just wanted to say, all the forum regulars are very very helpful and polite (mostly) but if you are an idevice player who doesnt own an android or physically plays with someone with an Android, can you please kindly refrain from making comments on Android based threads? Usually, they are not constructive as they dont answer our questions and may potentially only start conflict (such as the recent big BS thread about idevices vs android).

I know you are trying to be helpful but its not. Its like saying to someone who just got a super bad bad haircut that their hair will grow back. Yes, they know but they are still entitled to sulk, be angry and complain.
TL games are too addictive, we will continue playing and spend our money on gems and keep TL afloat! but we need a place to complain and vent too and these forums are better than making a website or blog to complain on.

I hope i dont start conflict, just wanted to make a point. Android players are growing and if the regular idevice players continue to make irrelevant/unhelpful comments on android threads then i fear more more thread wars may follow.

Personally I agree with some of the points made here. iDevice users should not upload tactless comments (but then shouldn't anyway). However, I strongly disagree with your suggestion that non-Android users do not comment on Droid threads. Droid users comment on iDevice and between the 2 platforms there can be more useful information than if just one type of user helped.

GroupMagma
07-20-11, 10:26 AM
I'd say that non-constructive comments of any type aren't welcome (unless they're humorous). But I also think Android users may have insight on on iDevice threads, and vice versa.

Yes (although if the humour derails the thread...), I agree. In any case, separating both would be near impossible:p (<---humourous comment).

I'm not sure what you mean by out of place but I'll take a look at which threads have that prefix.

Ony mods can create a sticky. Yes we do stick the great updates threads for the games each week, because they are very popular and members like to be able to check in on update day seeing what the new updates are.

There is an issue with vBulletin, the program (?) that helps run this site. It seemed like only people who registered before a certain point got all the features (blue name, info under name, signatures, ability to edit, etc) and those who registered after did not. Once TL is able to fix it (not sure when), all users will have the same things. :)

I'll give you a quick synopsis: the person had a problem with getting her gems after purchasing them. Told her to message TL about it. She hopes she can get her money back. Told her others have had similar problems and wished her luck. Then, to add me as a neighbor.

Now she has a question as to why she can't see the gem offers, just the amount of time left before it expires. Told her it would be best if she sends that concern in her message to TL, as well. Asked her if she's seen an update cuz sometimes that helps.
