For some reason an overzealous person decided to change the cateory that was called Cafeteria to Lobby and in the process delete several useful subfora...Crazy

This came to light when Stuckon3D's tutorials could no longer be found, which used to reside in the Freebie section of the Cafetaria.

If you're curious, the following link gives you a recent snapshot of the forum: https://web.archive.org/web/20140625112837/https://forum.reallusion.com/default.aspx.

On that date (June 25) all was well...Cool

Maybe Peter (RL) can explain what's going on. Cleaning the store is one thing, but the forum is something else...Angry

Surely to rename an entire forum means going into the admin backoffice and to do that you need that access UN and PW.

Also, just in case it's overlooked, in most places a Lobby is a small reception area of a hotel.
Where as a cafeteria is a social gathering place.

The two don't really sit similarly together as alternatives!!!!!  Just my thoughts.

It makes sense to me, we've been asking Reallusion for things to be more professional... and it's looking more professional Cool -fixes tie-

Unfortunately over a long period of time the forum does become cluttered with too many sub-forums, pinned threads etc. and a little spring cleaning was in in order to improve overall performance.

I didn't make the changes myself so can't be sure what has been removed. If you know of any important threads that seem to have disappeared, please let me know and I'll look into it. The missing threads may actually have just been moved elsewhere.

Peter, thanks for responding. I mentioned it, because things that are useful or relevant were suddenly found missing.

An important one is the Freebie forum, as it had a lot of useful stuff in it, including Stuckon3Ds free tutorials, which are still relevant.

Then there is the Forum where Wolf and Dulci announced their show among others, and also contained other announcements related to what we are doing. We need a forum like that as well. 

I think reorganizing is a good thing in itself, but just removing whole parts is not a very elegant solution.

Hi Animagic,

I finally found the problem you guys were having. It seems that when the changes were made, whoever did it also made changes to the permission sets meaning that while I could still see the Forum Freebie forum, everyone else couldn't. I have now set it correctly so please check if you can access it in the Lobby section. I have also pinned StuckOn3D's two tutorial threads to make them easier to find.

For the "Friendship With Reallusion" forum where Dulci and Wolf posted their announcements, this can now be found under the "Newbie Say Hello" forum (not sure why). You can find it below.

https://forum.reallusion.com/Forum42-1.aspx

Please do let me know if you find anything else missing (or not displaying).

Apologies for all the confusion.
