Actually, I think it would be better to tie it to the forum logins.

yes. I will vote to tie them all together. That would be useful so you would be able to pm someone that wants to tryout for a clan.

I still don't think tying the global login with the forums is a good idea.
Why?
Because it would create WAY too many inactive forum accounts, all of them requiring confirmation emails, possibly making the server crash again.

ok, i've got it.
when a person signs up in the GLS, it should ask them what accounts they want. like have checkboxes to opt-in to the forum and wiki accounts. otherwise, they can just have the game account.
and they can also come back later and opt-in if they want. at which time they'd be sent a confirmation email.

Consider software development cycles... you know better than to plan it.  If the system was implemented and in it's lifecycle, then you could work on maintenance.  But this is unnecessary.

Edit:  Sorry if I came off like a punk, it was not my intention. 


It is nice to see people debate, I just wish we could reserve this for casting votes and suggesting features... perhaps take the discussion elsewhere as to preserve this thread?

Cobo: A GUI server console would make remote administration rather difficult in some cases.

Apocalypse: He listed several.  Which ones do you want me to add you to?  Also, it seems like you vote for everything anybody suggests.  That kind of defeats the purpose.  Try to focus on the things you'd like to see in the next release, not just in general.  When those features get added, you can vote again.

webhead: Sounds like you're referring to a "votenextmap" option.  When you say, "more screen resolution options", what is missing?  I've added every native resolution that I know about.  Perhaps custom screen resolutions is what you mean, where you can enter the width and height manually?  Side buttons are supported.  I think it supports up to 6.

I think the best solution for providing anti-spam measures on the wiki would be to use something that's already pretty robust, such as MediaWiki.  I've been meaning to look into it, but haven't really gotten around to it yet, so I just threw a vote up for now:

- Test and implement a robust wiki solution, such as MediaWiki
