Removing a character from a online campaign

[Patrik Ström]

Hi!

I was participating in this on these forums, and sadly due time constraints the DM could not keep it running. I'm wondering if there is a admin on these forums that could remove my character (or place him into inactive mode) so i only have my active campaigns on my "Current campaign" page?

I believe they time out after 2+ weeks of inactivity and get put into an archive campaign text at the bottom of the campaign page of the person.

The details are a little fuzzy in my head right now but I think if the GM has marked a campaign as inactive then you should be able to hide that campaign altogether. The fact that you don't see that option tells me there's a flaw in the code somewhere.

I was just about to ask about this. Thanks Patrik.

I guess that i've been to impatient :) The campaigns gotten the inactive status now. Thanks mods! :)

I think the problem was that the GM might not have marked the campaign as inactive. Now when the campaign appeared on my "Previous campaign" list there was a "(hide)" link next to it. The same went for another campaign i've been lurking in.

All good now. Thanks for the help!

You're welcome :)

There were two things wrong: a) a bug prevented campaigns marked as inactive from showing as inactive on your campaigns tab, and b) the campaign wasn't marked as inactive. I've fixed both those things.

I'm having a similar problem to Patrik's. I have one campaign that's been completely inactive for a couple weeks (I don't think the GM ever transferred it to the new system as it died just about at the time of the transition) and another active campaign that I withdrew from. Neither seem to be moving to the inactive mode. Any way I can force them there? (Or a mod can?)

Thanks, it's much appreciated.

Sure, just tell us which campaign(s) you're referring to and we can take a look. I'm reluctant to make campaigns automatically go inactive so for now it's a manual process, usually initiated by the GM, but staff can do it too.

Thanks. The inactive campaign is GM Painlord: To Heal the Worldwound, Part 1.

The campaign I'm no longer active in is Tark's Council of Thieves: Rebels with a Cause.

Thanks so much.
