My main concern is on stuff like The Laws of Sirius page (the links to Kusari Laws and Bretonian Licensing are broken) and Rules sections.
it´s starting to annoy me that the laws STILL haven't been adjusted to the new forum.
Come on people , it's not so much work.
I actually think they should be fixed by the people responsible , or by mods (for a fee like losing official status , since making your own rp laws readable is too much to ask),
how do ya expect people to take interest in these laws if they are riddled with codes , in a terribad size that hurts the soul , etc.
IT NEEDS TIDY!!!!
there's even double OC laws , Whyyyyyy !
delete the un tidy one!!
It makes it very difficult for new members atm to navigate the site and learn the game.
Being one of those new members, I cant tell you how confusing it is when you go to all the trouble of hunting down obscure threads about rules or factions just to find a "Click here for more details" link and.... nothing. Slightly frustrating.
Ultimately it is harmfull too, because it may turn new players away.
There's really no good way to find them except to search for them and then manually update the links. There's no correlation between the thread ID numbers on the old IPB forum and the one we've got now, so it's not possible to convert them like you were trying to do, unfortunately.
This is a real problem and unfortunately it's not one with an easy solution apart from a manual grind. We do have the old database so we might be able to come up with an automatic solution but I would not hold your breath.

Said laws are in roleplay only, and not enforceable by the server rules. If this was not the case, I'd be all for this fuss, but as is, just hound on your faction leaders to get the ball rolling.

And I mean enforced inRP. If the people RPing government are unable to update laws on the fly, then players should not be harrassed for not knowing hidden laws.
